I have an issue I can't seem to resolve.

We have a course with trickle/Steplocking enabled. At every step of the way, we want a trickle/steplocking "continue" button to bring users to the next component/block. At no point should there not be a continue button.

However, one of the components is optional content in an accordion. It's not mandatory the user looks in the accordions. So it is optional content. However, we still want the learner to have to click a "continue" button and trickle/steplock to the next component.

However, no matter what I do, this is not the case. What happens instead is that the trickle button is missing from this component, and the user has to manually scroll down to the next component. 

How do I turn on trickle on an optional component? 

Thanks
