## Beschrijving

Tabbed FAQ creates a structured FAQ system using a custom post type and category
taxonomy, rendered via a shortcode. It is framework-agnostic (no Elementor or page
builder required) and designed for large FAQ sets, SEO safety, and easy customization.

Features include:
 * Custom Post Type for FAQs * Custom taxonomy for FAQ categories*
Horizontal, scrollable category tabs with arrow controls * Accordion-style questions
and answers * FAQPage JSON-LD schema output * CSV importer for bulk creation and
updates * Shortcode-based rendering

### Data Structure

Custom Post Type:
 Post Type: tabbed_faq Supports: Title, Editor, Menu Order, Revisions

Each FAQ:
 * Title = Question * Content = Answer

Taxonomy:
 Taxonomy: tabbed_faq_category Used to generate the category tabs

### Usage

Use the shortcode:

[tabbed_faq]

The shortcode can be placed in:
 * Pages * Posts * Shortcode blocks * PHP templates
using do_shortcode()

### Shortcode Attributes

show_all_tab (default: 1)
 Show an “All” tab at the beginning.

all_tab_label (default: All)
 Label for the “All” tab.

default_category (default: all)
 Category slug to load first.

posts_per_page (default: 300)
 Maximum FAQs per category.

orderby (default: menu_order)
 Sorting field.

order (default: ASC)
 Sort direction.

include_categories (default: empty)
 Comma-separated category slugs to include.

exclude_categories (default: empty)
 Comma-separated category slugs to exclude.

schema_mode (default: all)
 Controls schema output. Possible values: * all – include
all FAQs on the page (recommended) * active – include only the default category

Examples:

[tabbed_faq]

[tabbed_faq default_category=”vehicle-care”]

[tabbed_faq include_categories=”technical,services”]

[tabbed_faq schema_mode=”active”]

### FAQ Schema Behavior

By default (schema_mode=”all”):

 * Outputs a single FAQPage JSON-LD block
 * Includes all FAQs rendered on the page
 * Merges schema from multiple shortcodes into one block

When using schema_mode=”active”:

 * Only FAQs from the default category are included in schema

Schema output:
 * Is generated from actual FAQ content * Is printed once per page
in the document head * Is safe for SEO and Google FAQ guidelines

### CSV Importer

Accessible via:
 FAQs  Import FAQs

CSV requirements:
 * Header row required * UTF-8 encoded CSV

Supported columns:

category (required)
 Category name or slug

question (required)
 FAQ question

answer (required)
 FAQ answer (HTML allowed)

id (optional)
 Existing FAQ post ID to update

slug (optional)
 Post slug to match/update

Update modes:
 * Prefer ID, then Slug (default) * Slug only * Always create new

If no match is found, a new FAQ is created automatically.

### Styling

Default styles are located at:
 assets/css/tabbed-faq.css

Key CSS selectors:
 .tabbed-faq .tabbed-faq__tabs .tabbed-faq__tab .tabbed-faq__accordion.
tabbed-faq__item .tabbed-faq__toggle .tabbed-faq__answer

Styles may be overridden in the theme or by dequeuing the stylesheet.

### JavaScript

JavaScript file:
 assets/js/tabbed-faq.js

Handles:
 * Tab switching * Horizontal tab scrolling * Accordion open/close behavior*
ARIA attribute updates

No external dependencies.

### Accessibility

 * Tabs use proper tablist and tab roles
 * Accordion buttons use aria-expanded and aria-controls
 * Only one accordion item is open per category at a time

### Performance

 * Uses get_posts() for data retrieval
 * No AJAX requests
 * Schema generated once per page
 * Suitable for large FAQ sets

### Uninstall

Deactivating the plugin:
 * Removes frontend output * Does not delete FAQ posts 
or categories

Manual cleanup requires deleting tabbed_faq posts and taxonomy terms.
