 * Hi
 * Is it intentional or a bug that the heatmaps are unable to properly show how 
   users interact with dynamic elements like carousels, accordions, menus, etc. 
   on my site?
 * When I look at a heatmap it shows me a static version of the page and I can just
   scroll up and down to see what clicks happened on visible elements. I cannot 
   however interact for example with a carousel to see how many clicks happened 
   on the last slide in the carousel which isn’t visible on page load (i.e. requires
   navigating to). And I cannot expand an accordion to see how people interact with
   the content inside that accordion.
 * Is that a limitation or some sort of issue with my site?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcannot-investigate-dynamic-elements%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@gnuworld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gnuworld/),
 * In previous specifications, dynamic elements such as accordion menus were intentionally
   suppressed when administrators were viewing heatmaps.
    The current version allows
   the same behavior as actual user viewing.
 * However, the Aurora Heatmap records the absolute position coordinates of the 
   user behavior.
    Therefore, for content that is deployed, the same movement will
   be more helpful in understanding user behavior, although data from deployed and
   non-deployed content may be mixed in the same coordinate values.
 * I was not aware of the question because I was not notified by the forum.
    Sorry
   for the delay in replying.

 * Since I haven’t heard back from you in a while, I’m marking this as resolved.
   
   If you have further questions, you can start a new thread. Your report was very
   helpful. Thank you.
