It is possible to have a webpage that only select users groups can edit like a wiki?

Are you using other web pages on your site? If not, you could set up a web page with the Website Maker and then set selected users to be admin assistants (Website Managers) with only permissions to edit the web page.

If that works for you, no extra code would be needed.

Well I wouldn't want them to have access to the other webpages. We have quite a few. I was more or less wondering if it was possible to have one webpage for FAQ that multiple users can edit.

If that is not possible... could there be a way to have threads from one forum show up on a webpage?

JavaScript cannot give users access to editing webpages.

Using AJAX, you can show threads from a forum on a webpage, yes.

That might work then.

What topics and posts in those topics do you want to appear on a webpage?

I was thinking just the topic title and description (if possible). Post info would not be important as long as they can just cuck the topc title and it brings them to the post.

You don't need AJAX or even JavaScript for that, you can use HTML:
Code: HTML
 
<a href="URL">TEXT</a>
If you want it to auto-update every time a new topic is created in that forum, then yes, AJAX is what we'll have to use.

Can you link me to the forum and tell me how many topic listings you want to show on the webpage?

Currently the topics are located http://s2.zetaboards.com/The_East_Pacific/forum/1000766/ but not all the topics there would be included... they would be moved to a dedicated area. It could be a lot of topics so I'm not sure I can put a number on it. If I could edit the variables that would make it the easiest.

Side question... I was also wondering if anything that is put together could it be done in a away to use the code more than once on the same webpage in tables? Because I would like to have different categories but again just a side question not the priority.

You can show up to 100 topic listings on the webpage. If you only want specific topics from the forum to appear, you can insert topic ID's one-by-on in the code to only have those topic listings appear, but you may as well use HTML if you plan to do that.

You can use the code to grab topics from multiple forums if that's what you're asking. It will just require more AJAX.

I'm sure 100 would be more than enough topic wise. An option to pull from multiplue topics would also be nice.

So, you would like all 100 topic listings to appear from one forum on to a webpage?

It will likely be less but up to 100 would be fine.
