As we see an increase of eCommerce sites developed on WordPress platform, the extension plug-ins especially the jQuery accordion plugins are gaining popularity. Accordion is a web control that allows you to provide multiple panes and display them one at a time. This can be viewed as multiple collapsible panels out of which only one can be expanded at a time. Many WordPress plugins are using jQuery accordion for the ease it offers to the developers as well as the user. In this article I will be listing the best jQuery Accordion plugins designed for WordPress.
