Hi Bettina,
I LOVE the Newspaper theme, but yes, missing an accordion element natively and not having support for standard WordPress shortcodes definitely limits the ability to do what some of us want to do (especially for SEO purposes) for FAQ’s and other needed purposes.
Has anyone found an accordion element that’s supported by tagDiv yet or is there a plan in incorporate one into the theme? I see this as a missed opportunity by your development team to make the theme legendary.
Thank you,
Dave
Hello Dave!
I think you can test some plugins with standard/default templates and see which one is suitable for your needs: https://www.wpbeginner.com/showcase/best-wordpress-accordion-plugins/
Check this topic too: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/accordion-and-toggles-open-when-printing-how-to/
We will take in consideration your query for the future.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your reply! I have tried 3 different accordion plugins and because they use standard WordPress short codes and the Newspaper theme is not compatible with standard WordPress short codes (that I have found), all that displays is the short code. I have tried an HTML element and a text element and both do the same thing.
Do you have a way that the tagDiv element will support a standard WordPress short code?

Hello Dave!
A shortcode can be inserted in our theme only by using the element called “Column text” or “Text with title”. “Column text” and “text with title” elements have a button called “edit content” and if you click on that button, the WP Editor will open and you can add some text/code/shortcode there. Close the WP Editor from X, save the changes from Composer and view the page to see the changes.
Thank you!
That makes sense. However, when I attempt this, the element just spins and spins. Please see the video here https://stemcellpowernow.com/wp-content/uploads/Spins.mp4
I refreshed the page and tried it again with no luck.
Suggestions to make this work?
Thank you.

Hello dglick60,
The problem with thee wp-editor that you have it can be related to more situations. For example this happen if the ModSecurity option is on or if you have some restriction code set in .htaccess files. Please check our guide from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/general-options-may-interfere-newspaper-theme/ -> https://i.imgur.com/sDN6QKB.png
I hope this will help you!
