Steps

The shortcodes stepgroup and step can be used to display an ordered list of steps for users to follow. Use the number attribute for the step element to set the step number.

Steps are displayed as special labels for drawers. We recommend getting familiar with how to add drawers to your website before reading this section. Each individual step can be displayed as closed (default) or open.

Here’s an example implementation of content placed within steps.
