Accordion menu module by Cédric Keiflin: submenus slide open under the parent item, items can carry descriptions, images or a nested module, and the look is set in a visual style editor.
Accordeon Menu CK is a Joomla module for a vertical menu in which child items open directly below their parent instead of flying out to the side. This layout works well in a sidebar, for catalogue navigation and on sites with a deep section tree. It is developed by Cédric Keiflin (joomlack.fr), who also maintains Maxi Menu CK and the rest of the CK family.
Features
- A menu item manager inside the module settings: title, per-item description and a module shown inside a submenu.
- An image beside the item text or an image alone; extra item attributes such as rel and a CSS class.
- A logo block above the menu, set in the module options.
- Side panel mode that docks the accordion to the left or right edge of the page.
- Instant search across menu items, useful for long menus.
- A style editor with live preview, so colours and spacing change without touching CSS files.
- Item sources beyond the Joomla menu: VirtueMart, JoomShopping, HikaShop, K2, AdsManager, and articles grouped by date or category.
Compatibility
- Joomla 4, 5 and 6 according to JED.
- Current version 3.6.5, last updated in JED on 21 July 2026.
- Shop and K2 sources need the matching component installed.
