Did you do a manual install or a package install? I just go to Admin->Package Manager->Update->Install (FAQ) and once it's installed, the FAQ button shows up in the Admin.
Actually, even regular screen will show the FAQ button too.
Best regards,
Poe
There is no "Admin->FAQ".
However, as an experiment, I took the URL for adding an FAQ Article:
http://otrs.terraworld.net/otrs/index.pl?Action=AgentFAQ&Subaction=Add
and changed that to
http://otrs.terraworld.net/otrs/index.pl?Action=AgentFAQ&Subaction=Category
and was greeted by the "FAQ Category" section, in which I can add
Categories.
I'm concerned why Admin->FAQ is not available, though. Perhaps there is
some sort of error in my installation.
