Use jQuery to name the Accordion panels

Question

I'm creating an Accordion Module (using Bootstrap) with the latest forum posts from Kunena.

I have written the following, which is displaying the posts correctly, but I need to somehow use jQuery to dynamically create the names for each panel:

<div class="panel panel-default">
  <div class="panel-heading" role="tab" id="headingNAME">
    <h4 class="panel-title">
      <a data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseNAME" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseNAME">
            <?php echo ModuleKunenaLatest::setSubjectTitle($this, $this->message->message); ?>
      </a>
    </h4>
  </div>
  <div id="collapseNAME" class="panel-collapse collapse in" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="headingNAME">
    <div class="panel-body">
      <?php echo KunenaHtmlParser::stripBBCode($this->message->message, $this->params->get ( 'lengthcontentcharacters' )); ?>
    <?php echo ModuleKunenaLatest::shortenLink($this->getTopicLink($this->topic, $this->message, null , ModuleKunenaLatest::setSubjectTitle($this, $this->message->message)), $this->params->get ('titlelength')); ?><?php echo JText::_('READMORE');?>
    <p class="authorPostTime">
        <span class="klatest-author"><?php echo JText::_ ( 'MOD_KUNENALATEST_POSTED_BY' ) .' '. $this->message->getAuthor()->getLink(); ?></span>
        <span class="klatest-posttime"><?php $override = $this->params->get ( 'dateformat' ); echo KunenaDate::getInstance($this->message->time)->toKunena($override ? $override : 'config_post_dateformat'); ?></span>
    </p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

The 'standard' Bootstrap code is:

<div class="panel-group" id="accordion" role="tablist" aria-multiselectable="true">
  <div class="panel panel-default">
    <div class="panel-heading" role="tab" id="headingOne">
      <h4 class="panel-title">
        <a data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">
          Collapsible Group Item #1
        </a>
      </h4>
    </div>
    <div id="collapseOne" class="panel-collapse collapse in" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="headingOne">
      <div class="panel-body">

      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="panel panel-default">
    <div class="panel-heading" role="tab" id="headingTwo">
      <h4 class="panel-title">
        <a class="collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseTwo" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseTwo">
          Collapsible Group Item #2
        </a>
      </h4>
    </div>
    <div id="collapseTwo" class="panel-collapse collapse" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="headingTwo">
      <div class="panel-body">

    </div>
  </div>
</div>

I can use jQuery to replace NAME with 'One' (in my code), but how can I use it to replace NAME with 'One', 'Two', 'Three', etc - depending on the number of panels shown?

Answer 1

I would not use jQuery to alter element ID. Best way is using PHP to do it on server before it gets to client. I do not understand You saying "not using PHP", when in your code there is "<?php echo KunenaHtmlParser::stripBBCode....."

So if the code is generated by iteration on server side, just add counter $i=1 before loop starts, and $i++ in the end of the loop. Than you can use it like this:

id="heading<?php echo $i; ?>"

Of course if You need 1 to be "One" you can look here for some solutions: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2112571/converting-a-number-1-2-3-to-a-string-one-two-three-in-php

Good luck)
