Accordion text has become very popular on websites these days and almost every one of my web design clients are asking for it!

I’m sure you’ve seen condensed ‘FAQ’ sections or tabs that open up additional info when you click ‘Read More’:

 
 

Up till now, if you had a Squarespace website, you would have to use custom code to achieve this effect. (Which meant either purchasing a plugin or following a DIY tutorial.)

Well my friend, great news!

 

Squarespace now offers a regular content block called the Accordion Block

You can add it to your page the same way you would add a regular Text Block.

And yes, it’s even available on older versions of Squarespace. 🥳

 

For a complete walkthrough on using & customizing the Accordion Block and to check out multiple use cases, watch the video tutorial below!
