I have an engineering website made in Visual Studio / VB / .NET 4.0. I’m looking for an application that can act as a knowledge base for questions and answers engineers might have regarding machine vision.
The best idea I can come up with right now is to make a simple FAQ, and then have a form-mail on a separate page that gets sent to me when an engineer has a question. This way, I could pass on the question to an engineer, and he/she could answer it, and I’d put it up on the FAQ.
Example: Q: Is there a multiple-camera system for bead detection?
A: Yes, you can look at the USS Bead Tracker in conjunction with PPT software
I’m not great with databases, know nothing of MVC, but here’s the one solution that seemed best: FAQ Knowledge Base and then I could have a page set up with form mail that gets sent to me when someone has a question they want added to the knowledge base.
Am I going about this the right way? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
FAQ are typically set up with the an admin asking a question then providing an answer.
I think a forum might be better suited for you. Where a user ask a question and a moderator can answering them. There a plenty of free forums available that can be set up to send emails as well.
