 * Hi,
 * I have several FAQ tabs in a list shown here: [http://postimg.org/image/d6r66dqkj/](http://postimg.org/image/d6r66dqkj/)
 * Is it possible to set the boxes to close sequentially – i.e if Box 1 is open 
   and you click on Box 2 to open it, can Box 1 close simultaneously?
 * The desired effect is having only one FAQ tab open at once – [http://postimg.org/image/9of69zpoj/](http://postimg.org/image/9of69zpoj/)
 * Thanks,
 * AFX

 * Hi AFX,
 * Thanks for using my plugin. You can achieve the look you want by setting the 
   style to accordion. For example:
 *     ```
       [faq style=accordion]
       ```

 * Hi John,
 * You’re welcome, it’s a great plugin!
 * I’ve tried your suggested method but the boxes are still showing like this: [http://postimg.org/image/5fwbrj9qr/](http://postimg.org/image/5fwbrj9qr/)
 * … where more than one box can be opened at once.
 * The functionality I’m looking for is like the accordian on this page: [http://www.joomlanook.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=104&Itemid=73](http://www.joomlanook.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=104&Itemid=73)
 * … where another box opening closes the box that is currently open.
 * Is this possible?
 * Thanks in advance,
 * AFX

 * It is very possible. You can see how the accordions are supposed to work here:
   [http://demo.arconixpc.com/arconix-faq/#accordion](http://demo.arconixpc.com/arconix-faq/#accordion)
 * The latest image you posted makes it look like there’s some kind of javascript
   conflict which is why the accordions aren’t collapsing. If you look at the javascript
   console — CTRL + Shift + J on Chrome for Windows or Cmd + Opt + J on Chrome for
   Mac — you can see what errors are being fired. If you post the link I can take
   a look too.

 * Hi John,
 * Sounds great, here are the URL’s for you to take a look;

 * As far as I can tell, the superfly-menu plugin is overriding the default accordion
   behavior and that’s why when you open a second accordion the first doesn’t close.
   Unfortunately I don’t know anything about that plugin or how to resolve the conflict
   short of disabling that plugin.

 * Not to worry John, these things happen,
 * I’ll contact Super-fly’s developers and see if they can assist with this issue.
 * Thank you for your help,
 * AFX
