Show multiple div when clicked in Bootstrap Carousel

Question

I'm trying to show multiple div when a button is clicked. For instance, I want to show all the divs with id=div1 only when Button1 is clicked. Likewise, show all the divs with id=div2 only when Button2 is clicked. The same goes for other slides too in increasing number.

HTML:

<div class="container">
  <div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">

    <!-- Wrapper for slides -->
    <div class="carousel-inner" role="listbox">
      <div class="item active">
        <div class="divA">
          <div class="divAA">
            <div id="div1" class="targetDiv">
              <p>Div1 Intro: Hidden until Button1 is clicked</p>
            </div>
          </div>
          <p>
            Div1 Short to be shown by default.
            <span id="div1" class="targetDiv">Hidden span until Button1 is clicked</span>
          </p>
          <a class="showSingle" target="1">Button1</a>
          <div class="divAAA">
            <div id="div1" class="targetDiv">
              <p>
                Div1 Details: Hidden until Button1 is clicked.
              </p>
            </div>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>

      <div class="item">
        <div class="divB">
          <div class="divBB">
            <div id="div2" class="targetDiv">
              <p>Div2 Intro: Hidden until Button1 is clicked
              <span id="div2" class="targetDiv">Hidden span until Button1 is clicked</span>
              </p>
            </div>
          </div>
          <p>
            Div2 Short
          </p>
          <a class="showSingle" target="2">Button2</a>
          <div id="div2" class="targetDiv">
            <p>
              Div2 Details: Hidden until Button2 is clicked.

YOLO.
            </p></div>
        </div>
      </div>

      <div class="item">
        3
      </div>

      <div class="item">
        4
      </div>
    </div>

    <!-- Left and right controls -->
    <a class="left carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="prev">
      <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
      <span class="sr-only">Previous</span>
    </a>
    <a class="right carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="next">
      <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right" aria-hidden="true"></span>
      <span class="sr-only">Next</span>
    </a>
  </div>
</div>

Javascript:

jQuery(function(){
        jQuery('.showSingle').click(function(){
              jQuery('.targetDiv').hide();
              jQuery('#div'+jQuery(this).attr('target')).show();
        });
});

No, it's not working properly. Currently only 1 div shows up instead of 3 div when the corresponding button is clicked. Also, the 3 div is to remain hidden until the button is clicked. — Elaine Byene
I want to show all the divs with id=div1 only when Button1 is clicked... Id must be unique, use class instead — Washington Guedes
You cannot use same id for multiple elements. Use class instead of elements. — Sooraj

Assign a class to the elements(divs) you want to show when a div is clicked. Make one class that can be assigned to those divs. Remember do not assign same ID's to the element since it can be a problem.
