Open All / Close All Button for Advanced Accordions

Introduction

This document outlines the Open All / Close All Button, a premium feature for accordions built with the Gutenberg block editor. It empowers users to efficiently manage the visibility of multiple accordion panels, enhancing the user experience for content with extensive accordion structures.

Functionality

• Open All/Close All Toggle: The block provides a prominent button that serves as a master control for accordion panels. Clicking the button triggers the following actions:
  • Open All: When the accordion is closed (all panels hidden), clicking the button expands all panels, revealing their content.
  • Close All: When the accordion is open (all panels visible), clicking the button collapses all panels, concealing their content.

• Customizable Button Text: The block offers customization options for the button text. Users can modify the labels for “Show All” and “Close All” to better suit their specific content and preferences. This personalization can improve clarity and user experience.

Implementation

   • Within the Gutenberg editor, locate the block search bar and type “Advanced Accordion.”
   • Select the block from the search results to add it to your accordion layout.
   • Add the group accordion and then Click on the Open All/Close All Button block to access its settings panel.
   • Modify the text fields for “Open All” and “Close All” as desired.

Benefits

• Improved User Experience: The Open All/Close All button streamlines user interaction with complex accordions, especially those with numerous panels. Users can effortlessly switch between viewing all content or focusing on specific panels.
• Enhanced Accessibility: This feature caters to users who prefer to navigate large amounts of content quickly. They can readily access all information or collapse sections for a more focused view.
• Content Organization: The button promotes better organization of content within accordions. Users can maintain a clean and uncluttered interface when all panels are closed or reveal the entire structure when needed.
