ACCORDION add-on needs some love, PLEASE

Asked by John Juhl 4 years ago Last activity 4 years ago

Being a heavy Accordion user (for project pages) it is really frustrating:

  • Not being able to duplicate items
  • Not being able to store / reuse own styled addons
  • Not being able to tell which addon is which since the Admin header doesn't work (so, why is "admin header" there at all if it has no function - you have to open the addon to see the admin header - doesn' make sense)

An example:
A project page has got 8 Accordions, with 5-10 folders in each. Inside each folder the sections are divided by headers - 3-5 headers per folder.
A header is a simple textbox with a certain styling - so now you can tell already, that I might have to do the same styling in the nabourhood of 180 times for each project - because I can't re-use/duplicate/copy-paste my header.

The Accordion addon is simply not aligned with the rest of PB and need some attention and love.

I'm not gonna place any links here, since we have talked about this quite a few times already - and I know the drill: "Thanks for your good idea, we will hand it over to the developers" - and I appreciate that you can't deal with every little wish.
So I would prefer if you just came straight foreward, and told us/me if it's gonna happen, or not. That would at least give me the option to look for alternative ways to deal with MY services.

Thanks for your attention.

Hello John Juhl

I absolutely agree with you and would love to thank you for your feedback. I am not going to say that I have forwarded this to the developer and bla bla 😉

But I have a talk today with the developer team about this. And I have some good news for you. For SP Page Builder 3, it is not going to be updated. It is simply because the structure could break and hamper the other things. But we have designed Accordion and Tabs addon from scratch for SP Page Builder 4. For example, you might use Accordion inside Accordion on SP Page Builder 4. You can try SP Page Builder 4 Beta 1.

Sneak Peak for you:
