   with openfirst. It does not work, here is my code : [accordion id=”xx” openfirst

 * Hmmm. That should be working. Is it possible to get a link to the page so I can
   take a closer look? The only thing I can think of is maybe you are using smart
   quotes. Can you try copying and replacing what you have with this:
 * `[accordion id="xx" openfirst="true"]`
 * Additionally, you can use `[accordion-item title="First Accordion Item" state
   ="open"]` on the first `accordion-item` to open the first one by default.

 * Beat me to it. Glad you got it working.
