Accordion
An Accordion is a group of Accordion Items that shows other Blocks and content within them. An Accordion Item can be expanded or collapsed and is therefore useful for grouping content together. They are also useful for hiding content into collapsed sections when there is a lot of content on the page.
Adding a new Accordion Item
To add a new Accordion Item, you can either click on an Accordion Item or the Accordion itself and click the plus button in the toolbar.
Cloning Accordions or Accordion Items
You can clone both Accordion Items and the whole Accordion itself. To clone an Accordion Item, select an Accordion Item and click on the clone symbol in the top right-hand Block toolbar. This will create a copy of an existing Accordion Item inside the Accordion.
When the whole Accordion is cloned, two separate Accordions will be created. It will not create an Accordion inside the existing Accordion.
Reordering Accordion Items
Accordion Items can be reordered within the Accordion. To reorder an Accordion Item, click and drag the move button in the toolbar to place the Accordion Item somewhere else. Accordion Items cannot be dragged outside of the Accordion itself. However, Accordion Items can be dragged into other Accordions.
Adding Blocks to an Accordion Item
To add Blocks inside the Accordion Items, Drag and drop other Blocks into the Accordion from the canvas toolbar or elsewhere in the canvas.
The height and width of the Accordion will be determined by the Blocks contained in it. To guarantee consistent behavior, items inside the Accordion must have a set pixel height and width in the style manager, not a percent or auto.
