Description
A small but versatile jQuery plugin that allows you to truncate specific sections of your content and then creates a link to toggle the full content.
Setup
-
Copy the files from the css and js directories to your corresponding asset directories.
-
Include the advanced-read-more.css or advanced-read-more.min.css in the `<head>`
<link href="css/advanced-read-more.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
-
Include jQuery (if you haven't already) followed by advanced-read-more.js or advanced-read-more.min.js in the `<head>`
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/advanced-read-more.min.js"></script>
-
Initialize the plugin below the included scripts, like so:
<script type='text/javascript'>
$('body').readMore();
</script>
Or with custom options...
<script type='text/javascript'>
$('body').readMore({
showLines: 5,
linkCaption: 'expand...',
linkCloseCaption: 'reduce...',
linkHint: 'Click for more information'
});
</script>
