How to Add an Accordion Component
Accordion cannot be created as the first component on a page. Sitecore only allows the following three components: Hero Banner, Slideshow, and Video to be used as the first component on a page.
- Select anywhere in the +Select Component area to add a component.
- Select the + Add here button.
Choose Accordion from the five options and then select Select.
The Accordion can be double-clicked to select it also.
- Select Add Component to create the Accordion component.
Select the Gear Icon if you want to add a headline and then select the Plus Icon.
Hover over the area below the title bar (does this area have a specific name?) and select the Pencil Icon to edit.
An existing Accordion component will often have existing text or image(s). Make sure you have navigated to a page you have been authorized to edit before making changes to an Accordion component.
- Select Show editor or double-click the text in the area to edit.
- Once all edits are completed, select Accept to finalize the edits or Reject to leave the editor without making any changes. If the layout option chosen had multiple sections, complete for each section.
- Review the edited sections to ensure all edits have been made and then select OK.
