As you can see, there’s some text wrapper in an “accordion” interface element. This text is shown when the user clicks in the “+”.

Currently the full text is just a field with type: textarea, and I’m using kirbytext() to render it in the template. This works well not because I only have paragraphs, but I’m not sure how to implement this “accordion” right in the middle of the text.

Where should I be looking at or how would you suggest to resolve this? Thank you.

So you want a way to continue writing your text as normal but be able to integrate an accordion whereever you need, i.e. without having the accordion in a separate field?

  1. KirbyTags
  2. Use the blocks field with a custom accordion block:

Thank you! I’m trying to set a standard text block with some test content to be shown by default. However, it won’t show in the Panel. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. The blueprint:

title: 'References'

tabs:
  # title & SEO
  seo:
    label: 'SEO'
    icon: search
    fields:
      web_title:
        label: 'SEO Title'
        type:  text
        help: 'lorem'

      web_meta_description:
        label: 'SEO Meta description'
        type:  text
        help: 'lorem'

      tags:
        label: 'Tags'
        type: tags

  # content
  content:
    label: 'Content'
    icon: text
    columns:
      main:
        width: 2/3
        sections:
          fields:
            type: fields
            fields:
              cover:
                label: 'Cover Image'
                type: files
                multiple: false

              header_title:
                label: 'Header Title'
                type: text

              header_intro:
                label: 'Header Intro'
                type: textarea
                buttons:
                  - bold
                  - '|'
                  - link
                  - email

              text2:
                  type: blocks
                  default:
                    - type: text
                      content:
                        text: test content

              text:
                label: 'Text'
                type: textarea
                buttons:
                  - bold
                  - '|'
                  - link
                  - email

              text_image:
                label: 'Text Image'
                type: files
                multiple: false
      sidebar:
        width: 1/3
        sections:
          files:
            label: 'Files'
            type: files

          pages:
            label: 'Pages'
            type: pages
            template: industries-inner

What I’m doing wrong?

Your blueprint should work fine, but keep in mind that default content is only ever added at page creation, not when you add the field after that.

Oh, makes sense. Thank you!
