I’m building a page with accordions inside of accordions. What setting do I need to change to get only one accordion at a time to be open? In my screenshot you see both “About Condition” and “Mint” are open, the other titles do that too. I want it so only one is open at a time. When the next one is clicked the other closes. All of my accordions are set to Grouping/Parent at the moment. ![Screenshot 2025-06-21 at 8.14.26 AM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/7/4/7428ad79fb63d87402d52686041d323d63465e1f.png) ---

Try setting the sub accordions to the same custom group. Like this… ![CleanShot 2025-06-21 at 4 .11.23@2x](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/0/2/025429ff0891ad01ff33072936ba5793f9ac68ee.png) ---

@dan I tried that but it does not work. I uploaded a simple project with this Accordion setup. Please see if you van make the sub accordions close individually. elementsapp://downloadDocument/8pCGoKdRNxoh ---

I’ve taken a quick look, and it seems groups won’t work when using accordions inside of accordions. I’m cc’ing @ben in for his thoughts on this one, hopefully we’ll be able to work in a fix. ---

I have not tested (or even considered) putting an Accordion inside an Accordion. I don’t think I’ve actually ever seen this done on a website before 🤔 Having said that, I think it should be technically possible, so I’ll add it to my list of things to investigate and see if we can add it at some point 🙂 ---

@ben Check out my page with Accordions inside of Accordions on my site. That setup has super simplified that page, which is the propose of Accordions. I have to believe that other site builders will find that setup useful too. > **[Purchase](https://kieffer.us/purchase/)**
