Auto close expand collapse

Is there a way to configure the expand collapse to auto close when clicking outside the div ?
Thank you

Yes its possible. You just need to write little bit Jquery to accomplish this. The process is pretty same as lightbox effect.
You should define a empty div before ending the body tag. e.g.
<div id="layer"></div>

And then a small piece of Jquery code.
$('#layer').click(function{
    $('#your-expand-collapse-div-id').collapse();
});

But you need to put some css to accomplish this. Hope it will help.

Hello. I have the same question and I have done what you listed but am still having issues. I put the JS snippet in as well as added the Div. However, I would like to make sure that I am putting them in the right spots. Would you mind clarifying where exactly? Thank you so much!

You need to add the div just before ending the body tag. like:
<div id="layer"></div>
</body>
</html>


And put the javascript in your header.php file, if still it will not work, then send me the page url where you did the trick. I'll look into it.

Hi ! Thanks for the reply .... might sound like a stupid question, but where is this header.php file ??
Many thanks

Usually within the Elements folder of your theme.

Are you saying I should creat a header.php file ? In my themes/elements folder I only have a misc.html file and a javascript and css folder ....

It can depend on the theme. Are you using a custom one or one from the marketplace? If so, which one? I will look for you.

I'm using my own theme.
