Use this to reduce clutter and information overload on information-dense pages by presenting content based on the user's needs.

Considerations and caveats
Keep in mind the following when adding the Accordion enhancement to a widget:
- You must put a title on widgets that use the Accordion enhancement but do not enable title links.
- Do not put the Accordion enhancement on an RSS Feed widget.
- Do not use the Accordion enhancement on the Links widget. The Links widget provides its own accordion functionality.
- Do not use the Accordion enhancement on the Photos in Folder widget.
- Do not use the Widget Tabs enhancement in combination with the Accordion enhancement.
How to create an accordion
Apply the Accordion enhancement to a widget by giving it the accordion class. Refer to the article Applying custom CSS to widgets if you are unsure how to apply CSS classes to a widget. After adding this class to a widget, go to its Options tab and enter a title for the widget. This title will act as the label for the button.
If you want a title to appear above your accordion, place an HTML content widget above it. Then, add the accordion-title class to it, and enter your title into the HTML content widget's title field.
