The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) is a new page on the portal in which you can put useful information for requesters (things like answers to frequently asked questions, agency contact information, or policies). The text on your FAQ page can be customized to be specific to your agency and requesters.
Important Note
- Only Admin users can edit the FAQ page, and it's only visible to the requester and the public when content has been added.
- If you want to hide the FAQ page from customers, remove all content.
