Entity Reference Tab / Accordion Formatter

Security covered Under active development 93 sites

Part of the Entity ecosystem · 308 projects

This module provides a tab or accordion formatter for entity reference fields, allowing you to display referenced entities in a structured and accessible way. You can customize how tab titles and content are displayed, and choose between different rendering options like specific fields, full entities, or Views blocks.

Entity Reference Tab Formatter adds an accessible tab/accordion formatter for
entity_reference and entity_reference_revisions fields. It pairs nicely with
Paragraphs but works with any referenced entity type.

  • Switch between Tabs or Accordion layouts without touching stored data.
  • Map tab titles to any referenced field, with a fallback to the entity label.
  • Render bodies as a single field, the full referenced entity (view-mode aware), or any Views block display (supports contextual filter arguments).
  • Tune accordion behaviour (single vs. multiple open items, header color/width, icon alignment).
  • Lightweight JavaScript built on Drupal core once(); no jQuery UI dependency.
  • Accessible markup and keyboard defaults keep the first panel visible even before scripts load.

Installation

  1. Install with Composer.
  2. Enable via Extend or run drush en entity_ref_tab_formatter.
  3. Clear caches.

Configuration

  1. Open Manage display for the entity reference field (e.g., a Paragraph reference field).
  2. Pick Entity reference tab formatter in the Format column.
  3. Adjust the settings:
    • Tab title field – choose the field to display in the tab/accordion header; falls back to the entity label when empty.
    • Tab body field – select a specific field, choose Views block (then pick a block display and optional comma-separated contextual arguments), or use Rendered entity (full view).
    • Rendered entity view mode – when rendering the full entity, select the view mode configured under Structure → [Bundle] → Manage display.
    • Display style – toggle Tabs vs. Accordion and set accordion options (single/multiple open items, header color, full-width header, icon alignment).
  4. Save and clear caches if needed.
