[Resolved] On click, drop down descriptive box, a how-to question

[Alice]

Hello,

I am building a website for our fraternal lodge. The president likes the way one can click on a picture and text drops down explaining what the picture is.

See this example at The Voyager Group’s website: https://www.thevoyagergroup.com/our-team/

The page shows the team members head shots and when you click on their picture, information about who they are drops down.

My question: How is this done and can this be done in GeneratePress? Is there a specific plug in that does this?

Thank you,

Alice Scherer

Hi Alice,

The theme definitely wouldn’t have something like this built-in.
I would say that’s a pretty fancy version of a tab/accordion feature.

You should be able to replicate most of it with the Tab block in the upcoming version GenerateBlocks pro:
https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/tabs-overview/
https://generateblocks.com/flexbox-sizing-tabs-accordions-more/

There should be other accordion/tabs specific plugins out there too if you want to go that route.

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Ah, an accordion block(?). I see. I’ll investigate that further. Thank you for the links. It will be a few weeks before I get that far, but I’ll let you know if I have any other questions.
You say “the upcoming version of GenerateBlocks Pro. When is it upcoming?
Many thanks!
Alice

We are hoping the official version will be released by the end of the month.

It’s currently in release candidate 2 so pretty stable if you want to start using it 🙂

Okay, that’s great! Thanks so much. You’ll probably be hearing more from me as I am sure I’ll have a number of questions as I build out my site.

Thanks!
Alice

No problem 🙂
