Scroll to accordion from a nav-link and open it

Question

I have 4 bootstrap accordions all collapsed. When clicking from navigation link ([href="#headingTwo"] etc...] I need to expand that referenced accordion only. [ AND close it if clicked on another navigation link ]

So the below code works but I'm repeating it 4 times.... Surely it can be simplified into one function?

// accordion 1
$('a.js-scroll-trigger[href="#headingTwo"]').on('click', function() {
  document.getElementById("collapseTwo").classList.add("show");
});

// accordion 2
$('a.js-scroll-trigger[href="#headingThree"]').on('click', function() {
  document.getElementById("collapseThree").classList.add("show");
});

// accordion 3
$[...]

// accordion 4
$[...]

Many thanks in advance.

It looks like your anchor share the same class .js-scroll-trigger , you could assign the click handler to all of them, within the handler you will get the target accordion item from the anchor's href , that it's the id of the accordion item, then you can just trigger the click handler of the item button like below.

href contains the accordion header id , the element contains as it's first child a button that triggers the expand/collapse

<h2 class="accordion-header" id="headingOne">
  <button class="accordion-button" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">
    Accordion Item #1
  </button>
</h2>

 $(function() { $("a.js-scroll-trigger").on("click", function() { var target = $(this).attr("href"); $(target).find("button").trigger("click"); }); });
