Descripción
Squelch Tabs and Accordions Shortcodes provides shortcodes for adding stylish Web 2.0 style accordions and tabs to your WordPress website: Horizontal accordions, vertical accordions and tabs.
After you have installed the plugin you can use simple shortcodes on any page or post to add tabs or accordions.
Tabs and accordions can help to improve your website in a number of ways:
- Add interactivity: With collapsible accordions and tabs, you can make better use of the available space on the page.
- Add style: Tabs and accordions can help make your site look more professional and better polished than other sites.
- Save space: Tabs and accordions can save a lot of space on the page making your website look less cluttered.
- Separating content: Showing content only when required while the rest remains invisible dividing the content into parts.
If you want to add more interactivity with Tabs, Vertical and Horizontal Accordions on your WordPress website, Squelch Tabs and Accordions Shortcodes is a good option.
You can demo the website on a playground website here.
A note on responsiveness:
We receive a lot of questions as to whether this plugin is responsive. All widgets in this plugin are responsive excluding the horizontal accordion widget: It uses a different library to the other widgets, and that library is unfortunately not responsive. We may add a responsive horizontal slider in the future, but it is not available yet.

FAQ
-
What shortcodes are available?
-
Squelch Tabs and Accordions Shortcodes makes available 8 shortcodes: [accordions], [accordion], [haccordions], [haccordion], [tabs], [tab], [toggles] and [toggle]. The plural tags (accordions, haccordions, tabs, toggles) are wrappers that define the group of tabs or accordions. The singular shortcodes (accordion, haccordion, tab, toggle) represent the individual content items within each group.
-
How do I use the plugin?
-
Full instructions can be found on the Squelch Tabs and Accordions Shortcodes project home page on the Squelch Web Design website.
-
Can I change the look of the widgets?
-
Yes. The plugin creates jQuery UI accordions and tabs, jQuery UI-compatible toggles, and the horizontal accordions have been set up to use jQuery UI themes by default. So changing the jQuery UI theme in use on the page will change the appearance of the widgets. To change the jQuery UI theme simply go to Appearance > Tabs and Accordions and choose a theme from the drop-down menu.
You can also style the widgets with your own custom CSS if you wish by using the .squelch-taas-override class, but that is beyond the scope of this FAQ. Instructions are available on the Squelch Tabs and Accordions Shortcodes project home page.
-
Can I see a demo of the widgets?
-
Sure, on the Squelch Tabs and Accordions Shortcodes project home page.
You can also spin up your own WordPress playground and try the plugin out for yourself.
-
Are these widgets responsive?
-
All widgets is in this plugin are responsive excluding the horizontal accordion widget: It uses a different library to the other widgets, and that library is unfortunately not responsive. A new responsive horizontal slider is planned for the future.
-
Can I link to a tab?
-
Yes! As of version 0.3.7 it is possible to link to a tab. The easiest way to achieve this is to open the tab you want to link to and, if you take a look at the page address, it should change as you click the tab. If you copy and paste this address it should link directly to the tab you have chosen.

- Update dependencies used by the developer to build the JS and CSS to silence security warnings from GitHub’s dependabot

- Bug fix: The new vanity URL code was causing an issue on PHP5 websites. Thanks to @emajluap for reporting.
0.4
- New feature: It is now possible to disable the Magic URL feature introduced in v0.3.7 so that changing tabs/accordions does not change your site’s URL.
- New feature: The Magic URL can also be partially branded with your own vanity URL.
- New feature: Smooth-scroll when linking to a tab. Rather than jumping the length of the page in one go, the page will now slide smoothly before the tab/accordion switch happens.
- Version bump for WP4.8.1.
0.3.9
- Bug fix: Links with hash fragments that do NOT point to a tab/accordion were broken in 0.3.7 and 0.3.8. Thanks to @jschinnerer for reporting the bug.

- New feature: It is now possible to link to a specific tab within the same page using a # fragment in the URL
- New feature: While clicking through tabs, accordions and toggles, a # fragment is added to the URL to make it easy to link to tabs etc

0.3
- The plugin was banned from the WordPress.org directory for providing jQuery from the Google CDN and allowing the user to choose the version of jQuery they wanted to run on their site. Apparently this contravenes the WordPress.org directory guidelines, despite the fact that the guidelines seem to make no mention of jQuery anywhere and despite the fact there are a number of plugins in the directory that do exactly the same thing. In order to get the plugin relisted it was necessary to use the WordPress-hosted version of jQuery and package the jQuery UI theme files. As a result the plugin no longer works on WP<3.5 and there’s not much I can do about that.
- When you upgrade WordPress you may find that none of your widgets work any more due to a change in version of jQuery. This is a WordPress.org enforced change.
0.2.3
- Code to add .squelch-taas-override was missing, added in.
- Enabled nested accordions.
- Selecting “no jQuery UI theme” was causing the front-end to attempt to pull in a theme named ‘none’ from the CDN.
0.2.2
- autoHeight was always on regardless of settings on the accordions shortcode. If you prefer the old behaviour then ensure you have autoHeight=”true” on the accordions shortcode.
0.2.1
- Fixed a bug that was preventing necessary default data being set in the options table on upgrade.
0.2
- Added in lighter text for haccordion’s dark theme, was somehow missed out of 0.1.1
- Added subtabs, subsubtabs, subtab and subsubtab shortcodes to allow tabs in tabs up to 3 levels deep
- Added subhaccordions, subhaccordion, subsubhaccordions and subsubhaccordion shortcodes to allow nested horizontal accordions
- Added toggles and toggle shortcodes and created jQuery plugin to provide toggle functionality
- Added subtoggles, subtoggle, subsubtoggles and subsubtoggle shortocdes to allow nested toggles
- Created admin interface configuration page with theme switcher for jQuery UI themes
- All generated screen widgets get a class of squelch-taas-override to make overriding styles in themes easier
- Added option to allow jQuery and jQuery UI to not be loaded if desired
0.1.1
- Plugin now works on older versions of WordPress down to 3.3
- pauseonhover attribute was being erroneously ignored
- Fixes for styles in certain themes that might interfere with the horizontal accordions
- Dark theme now has grey text in the content area by default to make it easy to use out of the box
