Accordion layout
Hello,

i want to create a ''moving'' menu using the accordion layout webpart. But in this webpart i do not see any choice to have links in each pane. So:

1) is there any way to insert links in each pane in accordion layout? or
2) is there any other webpart that does the same job?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Giorgos..

RE:Accordion layout
Hello Giorgos,

Each pane contains web part zone, to which you can add any of the available web parts, so if you want to insert links to each pane, you add - for example - static html text web part and insert links there or if the links are menu items, you can also add into the pane some of the navigation web parts.

Best regards,
Jan Hermann

Hi Giorgos,

Can you please provide me link on how to make accordion menu from the scratch. Is it possible to make it fully functional without using JQuery.

RE:Accordion layout
Hello,

Do you have installed a sample Corporate Site within Kentico CMS? If so, the demonstration of the Accordion layout web part is located in the ~/Examples/Web-parts/Layouts/Accordion-layout.aspx path. Otherwise, please install the sample Corporate site (Site Manager -> Sites -> New site wizard -> Use website template) and there you can find examples of web parts usage.

Best regards,
Jan Hermann
