    Hello,
    I am trying to build up a faq database site for my organization. I am looking for some advice on which cms to choose(if it exists presently)
    The features i would need are
    1) Different FAQ categories,
    2) Inside the categories, all the questions listed, and when clicked bring the answers in a new page.
    3) Fully searchable per question(i would prefer tagging also if possible for each question and a tag based search). Searching is crucial.
    4) Easy entry interface. wysiwyg editor is preferred.
    5) Member management(who can contribute for the faq. Only for authors.
    6) General display customizations. I should be able to add the sidebar and change the looks of templates.
    7) SEO friendly urls

    Any cms solution out there that does the job i am looking for(with addons is also fine). Am open to paid cms also but would prefer a open source one, should be preferably on php/mysql backend)

    Ive never seen a FAQ CMS but if you google search for FAQ script there are lots.

    I would suggest Drupal with the views module. Might be a bit harder than a FAQ script but it will look better in the end.

    Second Drupal, but would suggest using the faq module. It's very flexible for FAQs. http://drupal.org/project/faq

    Also, the faq_ask module allows users to 'ask the expert'.

    Drupal has a great FAQ module that with views would really set you up
