Creating a Related Download List
To create a related reading download accordion group, navigate to the Download 'Create' panel, select your website, and then select all those downloads that should be returned in the series. Turn each 'active' download on via the On/Off toggle switch, and drag each download into the order in which they should be render on your website.

Click 'Save'.
Once saved, you should send the Series to your website in order to become active. Saving will also clear the default cache (each series block is cached for fast retrieval and rendering). When sending via the 'Send' panel you will also be asked to select the default style applied to accordion blocks when a style isn't specifically defined.

Creating the Accordion Style
The Related styles are applied in a standalone style module that eventually evolve into the single location to update any global styles. Navigate your way to the 'Style' icon in the 'Website' menu, create a style, and Save. This style will now be made available in various modules, including the 'Related' module.

Using Shortcode on Your Website
There are two methods of rendering the related downloads: shortcode and with Elementor. Shortcode is typically used in your standard blog posts and pages. Simply copy the shortcode from the 'Review' panel and paste where necessary.

The shortcode to render the Related Download list earlier in this FAQ was [bm_download_series series="6c739ee81f53b035ac9e8e6defd826cf"].
Elementor Reading Download Block
Search for 'Related Posts' in Elementor. Drag-and-drop into your post or page, select the applicable 'Related' list, select a style (usually 'Default'), and the related block will be returned. Note that there's an option to selectively enable and disable the description text (in the accordion when opened).

There's a toggle switch that'll swap out the accordion icon with numbering - usually suitable for a series of very closely connected downloads.
Download Marketing Triggers
The downloads reference the standard File Management System, so each download is recorded (as you would expect), statistics are maintained, and triggers will optionally apply. The triggers are defined in the standard Trigger module.
Review and Edit Related Downloads
You may review and edit Related Downloads from the 'Review' panel.
