Accordion Widget

The Accordion Widget is used to display text in a collapsed, condensed manner, letting you save space while still presenting an abundance of content.

With the Accordion, visitors can scan the item titles, and choose to expand an item only if it is of interest.

A similar widget is the Toggle widget, but there are two main differences between the Accordion widget and the Toggle widget.

  1. When a page is loaded, the first item of the Accordion widget is expanded, while all other items remain collapsed. With the Toggle widget, however, all items are collapsed when a page is first loaded.
  2. Only one item of an Accordion can be expanded at one time. As you expand another Accordion item, the previously opened item automatically collapses, looking similar to an accordion. With the Toggle widget, however, as many items as desired can be expanded at the same time.
