 * Can we create a page for each FAQ Question and answer?  For example /faq/question-
   name-here/.  I did not see that option in the plugin, but in the admin it does
   show a permalink. Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * There’s no built-in support for that kind of configuration but the plugin is 
   flexible enough that if you’re comfortable in PHP, that functionality could be
   coded without too much difficulty.

 * You *can* do this, however a consideration would by *why* you’d want to.
 * One of the biggest benefits of having all of the questions/answers on one page
   is the enormous SEO boost you can get from having a lot of keyword-rich questions
   and answers on one indexable page for the search engines to scan……it will really
   help your FAQ page rank well for your primary terms.
 * That said, as you’ve noticed, given that each FAQ question and answer is a single(
   custom) post with it’s own permalink, all you need to do is link to that permalink
   from *somewhere* (a sidebar list of top FAQs? a Search function?).
 * SO I know you’ve marked this as resolved, and technically it is, but if you want
   to post a little more about your reasons for wanting to link to single FAQs and
   how you envision that working, someone here (like me) may be able to help. I 
   use this plugin and love it, and have modded it up a bit in my own functions.

 * I just created my first faq entry as a test. The existance of a permalink suggests
   one faq entry per page. That said, when I click on the permalink, I get a 404
   error. 🙁
 * I have a **very good** reason for doing it this way. I am migrating from another
   site and I need a page-by-page mapping of the old site to the new.
 * I disagree that all-on-one faq page gives a higher SEO rank.

 * Hi,
 * If you go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save do the links start working?

 * [@criticaltinkerer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/criticaltinkerer/) John
   is right and his suggestion should work.
 * Any time you register a Custom Post Type (or add a plugin that does the same 
   thing, such as this plugin), or add other plugins or make changes/ mods that 
   could potentially effect a permalink, it’s a good idea (and in some cases necessary)
   to regenerate your permalinks by going to Settings>Permalinks and then generally
   I click on the ‘custom’ option (which always displays what my current option 
   is anyway, in my case I use postname so the radio button is on Post Name but 
   I select “Custom” which shows %postname%, THEN I click “Save”).
 * The reason I do it my way (rather than just going there and clicking “Save” without
   making a change) is that sometimes WP doesn’t recognize that you’ve ‘changed’
   anything so it doesn’t really ‘save’ anything. It needs to perform an actual ‘
   save’ to fix permalink errors.
