I just need a plugin / function that will allow me to create a simple FAQ page in the wordpress admin area with it's own menu link of course. I would simply need to be able to add custom html / css to this page.
That way I can add this page to my sub sites instead of in the main network section so that it can be replicated when I duplicate a site, instead of having to re-do it when I create a new network.
Your existing Support / FAQ plugin resides outside the site admin so it won't work for me.

Ok, since no one answered, i came up with this code, but it's not working. Could someone please at least check my code to see why it's not displaying my custom FAQ admin sub-page in the Support plugin menu? Thanks.
function add_my_faq() {
add_submenu_page( 'admin.php?page=incsub_support', 'Frequently Asked Questions', 'FAQ', 'read', ''admin.php?page=my_faq', 'my_faq');
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'add_my_faq' );
function my_faq() {
echo '<h3>Frequently Asked Questions</h3><div style="color:blue!important;float:left!important;">Custom Text Here</div>';
}
Tim, I am already using those plugins, all except the help one. I disabled the wordpress help tab (its annoying to me) because I needed a full FAQ page (just like the support plugin FAQ, but styled with my css and the content of which resides in the site admin instead of the network admin.
I don't use the tips plugin because it's identical to Admin Ads. I am also using the custom dashboard plugin, but that is only for regular promo content and company blog, etc. as well as a links to our support areas.
Thanks for info. I'm having a ball creating my own wordpress admin content, now that i know how to do it. :)

Nevermind, I figured it out.

There's actually a couple of plugins that do this too:
http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/qa-wordpress-questions-and-answers-plugin
and also
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/my-content-management/
I haven't really tried them though, otherwise I'd give you a little more insight.

Hey coreymj78.
Glad you got something sorted out.
We do also have these two plugins:
This one will let you add to the help drop in WordPress, so your FAQ could always be at hand.
http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/admin-help-content
The next one will allow you to add tips on your site, perhaps even one about seeing the FAQ in the help drop down:
http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/admin-panel-tips
And with the Custom Content Dashboard Widget, you could include your FAQ there, or information on where to find that and other helpful stuff.

Take care.
