I’ll look into this, posted it here to keep track of the issue: http://code.google.com/p/concrete5-expand-collapse/issues/detail?id=1

Hi Remo,
I have multiple expandcollapse blocks and I want to be able to auto expand a particular one when clicked on a link on a different page.
So far looks like the block doesn’t support that, but I am wondering if I could use your guidance on how to modify it to accommodate my needs.
Thanks a lot!

There are more autonav examples in my upcoming book http://www.codeblog.ch/2010/12/concrete5-beginners-guide-book/. I’m going to write some more tutorials once I finished the book but there’s not enough time right now.

I also can’t reproduce a problem with the arrows. I think I’ve updated the version in the marketplace a while ago, could you please try and use the one available here http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/expand-collapse/ ?
thanks

On the expand/collapse block, I am getting only one arrow. I wanted to create a few collapsed (or expanded lines) like the example, but was not able to. I tried to play around with the open/closed drop down but it did not work.

Well, I think what _n3o is saying, is that if this could be applied to a sidebar nav it would be great ie. like an accordion sidebar menu that would expand when the user clicks in it.

Well, in general yes.. But:
1. I’m very busy at the moment
2. What script? How is it related to the expand/collapse block?

You can easily add such features to the autonav block. No need for a custom block, a simple custom template would be enough..

You need to understand php and custom template (http://www.codeblog.ch/2009/03/concrete5-templates/) and a little bit of javascript but it’s not difficult to do.

Would be great (amazing?) to add this kind of feature to autonav :s

Remo,
This is an excellent addition to the concrete5 marketplace and for free too. The block works very well and as expected. Really easy to use and produces the desired results.
I am extremely pleased with the expand/collapse block
Many thanks for your time and effort
Cheers
Sean

Was just trying to put together something lie this myself, saved me a load of time.
Love being able select the template when adding the block – that should be added to all blocks in C5.
