Overview
Accordions are collapsible content areas that allow you to condense lots of information in a tab structure. Accordions can have various stylings and will match your site design, however, you will most typically see Accordions as a tabbed structure either vertically or horizontally. The accordion plugin can be placed on any content page as needed by your Clubessential team. In order to maintain the Accordion, Admins can access the Accordion on the page to make updates such as: adding, editing, deleting, and moving tabs. The content within the Accordion can be edited using the Click to Edit to open the Editor by Admins or Editors.
