Registration seams

These are how the premium build adds features, and how yours can.

Filter	Extends
`plugixa_faq_available_layouts`	The list of layouts
`plugixa_faq_layout_config`	One layout’s configuration
`plugixa_faq_layout_prepare_items`	How a layout groups or orders its items
`plugixa_faq_layout_allows_grouping`	Whether a layout supports category grouping
`plugixa_faq_content_source_enum`	The list of content sources
`plugixa_faq_content_source`	How a source fetches its items
`plugixa_faq_source_categories`	The categories a source offers
`plugixa_faq_view_config_settings`	The settings a view carries

Adding a layout is the clearest example:

add_filter( 'plugixa_faq_available_layouts', function ( array $layouts ) {
    $layouts[] = 'cards';
    return $layouts;
} );

Then supply faq-item-cards.php in your theme’s plugixa-faq/ folder.
