Expand content by sliding if over certain size

  • Is there anyway of limiting the main content of a post if it is over a certain character limit?

    Essentially, the user goes to the full blog post and if the main post is over 1000 character long it cuts the post down and put an “Expand” link at the end.

    When the user clicks on expand, the page expands by sliding down and reveals the rest of the content.

    Anyway of doing this, or a plugin to do this?

  • I do this type of thing with JQuery. Some coding and skill required. And it’s basically independent of the underlying system, so it would be the same idea whether using it with WP or elsewhere.

    I have clients who handle this by having content scroll when it goes over a certain length. This is done through CSS, and it’s easier than using JQuery, but I think it’s pretty ugly.

    As far as a WordPress method per se, I don’t know.

    Cheers, Dave
