My accordion component stopped working. It’s closed,even when the default state is set to open and the accordion won’t open. This is a [testfile](elementsapp://downloadDocument/RrkG54yj6B0q) ---

Hi @Bartje, Looking at the doc page here [Accordion | RapidWeaver Elements Docs](https://docs.realmacsoftware.com/elements-docs/elements-app/components/built-in-components/accordion) , seems you have to preview the site in your browser to see the accordion effects. The YouTube video shows the same. I tested your project file in my browser and it’s working (it’s opened in the default state, and I can open and close it). Added another one on the page in a closed default state and that works properly too. ![A web page displays an accordion menu labeled 'Accordian Menu 1' on the left and a card on the right with a cartoon woman's face and a button labeled 'Titel' with an arrow.

Quit Elements and after a restart everything works fine now 🤷
