 * Hello I was wondering If you could maybe add a icon that shows the accordion 
   is able to open or close. At the moment if the accordion shows no significance
   it is clickable or openable it just looks like a title, not even the mouse cursor
   changes. I think a lot of internet users wont even notice there is content underneath
   the accordion title. I thought I just type in (expandable) behind the title but
   that just looks stupid when its open.
 * Just a slight arrow pointing down and and up(depending on open or closed) should
   do It combined with changing of cursor maybe. Would be real awesome if you could
   implement this.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fopen-close-icons%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * You can use some simple CSS to your theme to add an indicator. I intentionally
   don’t include the arrows so as to not force a particular style on everyone.
 * Here is some sample CSS that will add a `+` to indicate there is more content
   if clicked and a `–` to indicate an item is collapsible. It will also add the
   pointer mouse cursor.
 *     ```
       .accordion-title {
       	cursor: pointer;
       }
   
       .accordion-title:after {
       	content: "+";
       	float: right;
       }
   
       .accordion-title.open:after {
       	content: "\2212";
       }
       ```
