    I wish to use the accordion code in theme file.

    I know I need to use 

    <?php echo do_shortcode('[your_shortcode]'); ?>

    But I am confused on how to add the content within opening and closing of the shortcode. Kindly suggest.

    @nims you should be able to do

    <?php echo do_shortcode('[lightweight-accordion title="My Accordion"]My Content[/lightweight-accordion]'); ?>

    Thanks for the prompt reply. Are you sure I can add multiline content within that with formatting intact ?

    @nims I’d recommend using html to add formating <p> </p> <br> etc.
