Very easily

Go to create a new template variable. At the bottom of the ’Input Type’ list you’ll see one called FAQs Selector. Select this, and you’ll get the included demo working on your page. It doesn’t do much, because our ’working’ TVs are very specific to our clients needs and can’t be shared at this time, but should give some help in writing your own.

thanks do i need to install the demo content, because i don’t see any Input Type "FAQs"

// added: PHP 5.2.9 / MySQL 5.1.33

This looks like a very, very useful addition to MODx – thanks!

It looks like a real enhancement for the editors/publishers. Some doc would be appreciated.
Anyway, that’s really nice of you to share this. Much thanks

Definitely Romain. We planned to release this 5 months ago and haven’t found the time to put the code out until now, let alone document it
