Multiple accordions in separate blocks

Wednesday, June 3, 2015 - 08:44

Hi,

I'm posting this here rather than making a ticket, in case it is helpful to others.  What is the trick to getting a different ID assigned to each dexp-accordion when they are added to a page in separate blocks, separate regions?  For instance, I have a block in top content that has an accordion, and further down I have a block in bottom content with an accordion. Only the first one works, and I assume this is because the second one has been assigned the same ID by the system.  The second accordion is given this ID: #dexp-accordion-item, which is the same as the first instance.

Thanks!

Diane

Hi Picturina,

Thank you for your reporting. Please follow step  below to resolve the issue:

1. Replace #dexp-accordion-item by a dynamic id:

Open accordion.inc file (under sites/all/modules/drupalexp/modules/dexp_shortcodes/includes folder) then replace this line

$vars['accordion_wapper_id'] = drupal_html_id("dexp_accordions_wrapper");

by

$vars['accordion_wapper_id'] = drupal_html_id("dexp_accordions_wrapper_".$_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME']);

and

$vars['accordion_item_id'] = drupal_html_id("dexp_accordion_item");

by

$vars['accordion_item_id'] = drupal_html_id("dexp_accordion_item_".$_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME']);

2. Clear cache

Thanks!

Looks like that will work!  I'll do that today. Thank you so much for your help!

FYI... I'm using accordion to give me  smooth-opening "read more" for homepage text that is too long.  I couldn't find shortcode for a read-more reveal, but by restyling accordion it should work just fine.  It occurs to me it's a feature you might want to include in future themes.

Hi, 

I looks like an error is being generated.  It doesn't stop the site from working, and the accordions are both working now, but I'm sure the error it needs fixing.

That looks like it was my error.  It seems to have ironed itself out when I retransferred the updated file.
