Carousel activates Accordian?

Beth · Post by **Beth** » Tue May 05, 2026 6:27 pm

I know how to make carousel no.1 open slides on carousel no.2 using events and javascript like this: "$('#indexCarousel2').bootstrapcarousel(1)" - but can I do the same to make carousel no.1 trigger opening a panel on an accordian ?

I can do this by using shapes, too, but how about an accordian panel as the target to be opened?

Any help is appreciated.

It depends on which accordion options you have selected.

jQuery UI has an 'active' method:

For Bootstrap, you can use collapse
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/components/collapse/

For example:
bootstrap.Collapse.getOrCreateInstance('#Accordion1-collapse3').toggle();

Thank you for your quick answer Pablo. I'm afraid that this is over my head. I was hoping for something simple but that's OK. Just an idea...

Maybe the following will do what you need. You will need to change carousel1 and Accordion1-collapse1 to your own requirements. To use simply.place using Page HTML Between the <head></head> tags* Note untested

Code: Select all

<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
  // 1. Identify your Carousel
  var myCarousel = document.getElementById('Carousel1'); 
  
  myCarousel.addEventListener('slid.bs.carousel', function (event) {
    
    // 2. Specify which slide (0 is first, 1 is second, etc.)
    // Let's say you want the 2nd slide to trigger the action:
    if (event.to === 1) { 
      
      // 3. Identify the Accordion Panel ID you want to open
      var panelElement = document.getElementById('Accordion1-collapse1'); 
      
      if (panelElement) {
        var bsCollapse = new bootstrap.Collapse(panelElement, {
          toggle: false // Ensures it stays open if already open
        });
        bsCollapse.show();
      }
    }
  });
});
</script>

Thank you so much Crispy. I thought that there should be a way. I'll work on it and let you know.
