The FAQ Section 2026 widget is an accessible accordion builder with five built-in design styles and three layout variants — section header, an FAQ items repeater with question, answer, category tag, and open-by-default control, all in one section. Works identically in Elementor and the WordPress block editor.
Overview
Instead of building an FAQ accordion from separate heading and toggle widgets, FAQ Section 2026 gives you one widget with everything a frequently-asked-questions block needs already wired together — an eyebrow label, headline with an accent-highlighted word, description, and a repeater of question/answer items with optional category tags and per-item open-by-default state.
Every part of it is restyled instantly by switching the Design Style dropdown — no custom CSS required.
5 Design Styles
- Bento Grid — crisp white cards, sharp grid alignment, confident typography. The clean SaaS-product look.
- Glassmorphism — frosted-glass translucent panels over a dark, gradient-blurred backdrop. Premium fintech/crypto feel.
- Dark Minimal — near-black canvas, a single lime accent color, high contrast. Dev-tools/AI-native feel.
- Aurora — soft gradient-mesh backgrounds, rounded corners, warm color blends. Modern AI/tech branding feel.
- Neo-Brutalist — hard 2px borders, flat solid colors, offset drop-shadows, no gradients. Bold agency energy.
3 Layouts
- Simple — a single-column stack of dividers-separated questions, the classic straightforward FAQ list.
- Two-Column Grid — questions arranged side-by-side in a two-column card grid, collapsing to one column on smaller screens.
- Boxed Cards — each question is its own bordered, elevated card with spacing between items.
All three layouts use the exact same native <details>/<summary> accordion mechanism underneath — only the arrangement and card styling change, never the interaction model.

- Headline — typography, color, and margin, plus a separate Headline Accent color-or-gradient control.
- Description — typography and color.
- FAQ Item — background, padding, border radius, border, and box shadow, with its own separate Open/Active-state background, border, and box shadow variants.
- Question — typography, color, hover color, and active color, plus a separate Category Tag sub-section for its typography, color, and background.
- Answer — typography and color.
- Toggle Icon (Chevron) — responsive size, plus color and active color, covering both the icon and its SVG path.
All colors accept either a solid color or a gradient.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need Elementor Pro to use this?
No — FAQ Section 2026 works with the free version of Elementor, plus the WordPress block editor. No Pro upgrade required.
Can I use a different layout with any design style?
Yes — Design Style and Layout are independent settings. Any of the 5 styles can be paired with any of the 3 layouts (Simple, Two-Column Grid, or Boxed Cards).
Does this widget need JavaScript to expand and collapse questions?
No — every FAQ item is a native HTML <details>/<summary> element. The browser handles the open/close toggle itself, so there’s zero JavaScript involved and nothing to break if scripts are blocked.
Is this widget accessible?
Yes — because it’s built on native <details>/<summary>, keyboard focus, Space/Enter toggling, and expanded/collapsed state are all handled automatically by the browser, with no extra ARIA wiring required.
