Website: How to add collapsible sections in forms?

Question

I have a form with too many sections. Some of the sections have a lot of content and are full of optional fields. I would like some of these sections to be collapsed by default so that I can let the user focus only on those fields that are important. Any leads?

Hi,
You can try by giving invisible attribute based on some condition, like if some boo-lean field is ticked make it visible and if the boo-lean field is unticked you can make it invisible.
This is the one option available, then you can try to add notebooks in the form, so that you can arrange the fields(optional) inside the pages of the notebooks.
Thanks

This is an old thread but the first link on Google. To make collapsible sections, use the Accordion from the bootstrap [1] framework. It's very easy to add the accordion

to a form. It worked immediately for me and I could use normal Odoo buttons and lists (/tree) within the Accordion. [1] https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/components/accordion/
