Magento

Hi magento people…

For starters just to say that i’m new to magento!

I’ve been searching for (some days now) a tutorial which could explain how to place a CSS accordion (like thisone: http://tympanus.net/Tutorials/CSS3Accordion/ ) or tabs in a CMS page like the FAQ or About Us. The content in these elements doesn’t need to have any connection to the shop productos… its just for text and some images (see this FAQ example: ver este exemplo de um FAQ em acordião: http://magento.webkul.com/virtual/index.php/accordion-faq/ ).

I would like some help with this topic...please…

Thank you to all of you!

Hello,

Through admin pannel you can add Accordion css to your cms page.
Go to CMS -> Pages select your CMS page.
Under Page Information -> Design -> Page Layout -> Layout update XML
add your accordion css
<reference name="head">
<action method="addCss"><stylesheet>css/yourcss.css</stylesheet></action>
</reference>

Hi,

this accordion is good indeed very good but it has problems with the old version of IE. SO be careful about it.

Hi Prateek, yes it’s very nice indeed… it’s a very good addition to any cms page! Those problems with old IE might not be so important as fewer old IE will be running with the passing of the years (thank god… lol).

Do you have experience with these kind of integrations, css and magento cms pages?

Hi Filipe,

I’m looking to exactly the same thing on our site.

We are looking to add content to the homepage, without it being too ‘wordy’, so visitors can select if they wish to read or not.

Also, we’re looking to use the same solution for our FAQ’s as the Wekul Accordion wasn’t exactly what we are looking for as I don’t like the animation, or the fact that it doesn’t close again. i.e. one of the panels needs to be always open.

You can probably guess from my language, and terminology used that I’m not a web developer but the owner of the website - so any advice you could offer would be gratefully received.

If you take the approach of treating me like an inept fool - you wouldn’t go far wrong

Kind Regards

M.
