Overview
Bellows Pro users can automatically generate accordion menus based on Taxonomy or Post hierarchies.
This is in contrast to creating a menu via the interface in Appearance > Menus to use as the source of menu contents.
Rather than building the menu item-by-item, you can auto-generate the menu contents menu based on your Taxonomy or Post hierarchies.
Please note that Autopopulation does not provide an option to create a menu with Taxonomy parents and Post children in a single menu (a mixture of the two), as this requires many database queries and would be very inefficient.
Examples
For example, let’s say you have a hierarchical custom post type called “Places” that looks like this:
You can turn that into an accordion menu, with the shortcode [bellows_posts post_type="place"]
Or if you have a custom taxonomy called “Film Genres” that looks like this:
You can turn that into an accordion menu, with the shortcode [bellows_terms taxonomies="genre"]
