!images/FAQ_portlet_edit.png|align="center" width="120mm" fo:scalefit="1" html:scalefit="0"!

*i.* In the *Display Category* tab, you can control what categories will be displayed.
 
!images/FAQ_portlet_edit_form.png|align="center" width="120mm" fo:scalefit="1" html:scalefit="0"!

*ii.* In the *Edit Template* tab, you can use CSS to customize the *FAQ* template.

!images/FAQ_portlet_edit_form2.png|align="center" width="120mm" fo:scalefit="1" html:scalefit="0"!

This is an example of the *FAQ* template after applying the new style.

!images/FAQ_template_edit.png|align="center" width="140mm" fo:scalefit="1" html:scalefit="0"!

*iii.* In the *Preference* tab, you can enable or disable the bookmarkable URLs in *FAQ*.

!images/FAQ_portlet_edit_form3.png|align="center" width="120mm" fo:scalefit="1" html:scalefit="0"!

By not using Ajax, the *FAQ* will generate plain URLs in the links. The added benefit will be bookmarkability and better SEO as the links will be permalinks.
Using Ajax, the links will be JavaScript-based and generate Ajax calls. This should make browsing faster because the whole page is not reloaded.
