Css – How to add link in accordion-button using Bootstrap?

I am trying to add a link in the accordion-button and make only the arrow clickable for collapsing

I added the following CSS to make the arrow clickable only. But struggling to make the link in the accordion-button work. I want the user to go to the location of the button not collapse.

.accordion-button {
    pointer-events: none;
}

.accordion-button::after {
    pointer-events: auto;
}

Here is what I have done. How can I make the arrow clickable only at the same time allow the href in the accordion-button clickable and take the user to the link?

.accordion-button {
    pointer-events: none;
}

.accordion-button::after {
    pointer-events: auto;
}

    Add this css:

    .accordion-header {
 position: relative;
}
.accordion-header .btn-link {
 position: absolute;
 z-index: 99;
 top: 10px;
}

    And step out the anchor tag outside the button tag and place just inside the "accordion-header" div:

    <h2 class="accordion-header">
 <a href="/" class="btn btn-sm btn-link">Accordion Item #1</a>
 <button class="accordion-button" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">
  </button>
</h2>

    Don’t next anchors in buttons. That’s just a bad idea and is invalid HTML. You also don’t need to use heading elements for your accordion headers.

    • Use the accordion header as a flex container
    • Justify content space-between
    • Align items center
    • Apply color to the accordion heading
    • Remove color from the accordion heading button
    .accordion-button {
  pointer-events: none;
}

.accordion-button::after {
  pointer-events: auto;
}
