I was looking forward to seeing more theme options and improved functionality in version 2 but when I reviewed the manual, everything looks pretty much the same.

Why should I upgrade? Can you please let me know what I am missing?

Hi Tim,
The new version includes:
- Optimized jquery code - faster and smaller in size
- Optimized CSS code
- Full DW CC 64-bit compatibility
- Full HTML5 Data Bindings integration, so you can create dynamic, database driven accordions

Thank you for the prompt response, Teodor.

One of the challenges I have been having with this extension is finding the right CSS code to update certain properties, like fill colours, outlines, etc. The CSS is quite overwhelming and not easy to edit, especially when you don't know where to find all the code related to what I am attempting to change. When you say 'optimized CSS code' it refers to to improved responsiveness and is not related to improved usability for the person trying to make changes, correct?

Thanks

Hi Tim,
The easiest way to customize the accordion appearance is to store the changes in a separate css file. You do not need to inspect the hundreds line of css. You can just use the dev tools of your browser in order to inspect the element you need to change, and copy the class name in your custom css file, where you can style it.
By optimized CSS i don't mean less lines of code.
