Stuck permanently expanded

I can’t seem to edit my post: I should mention that it’s actually NOT a blogpost. They are both, in fact, “comic posts”

I’m also having this problem on my About page:
https://tobylotak.com/about/

Scroll down to the text in blue. There’s a dropdown arrow and blue text that should be collapsable. It doesnt work at all. Please help!

Hello, can the developer please get back to me on this one? It’s a serious problem and Im’ trying to help a friend and they’re having the same problem.

Collapse O Matic doesn’t work on blog posts or static pages.
Their example:
https://www.gehenna.ishibishi.com/testcast/

My examples:
https://tobylotak.com/about/

They’re trying to recreate a cast page like mine here: https://tobylotak.com/cast/
Which for whatever reason, still works.

I even copy pasted the same thing in his site, and it won’t collapse. it’s the content all un-collapsed. What gives?

If you look at your source code this is what you will see:

<span style="color: #666699;"><span class="collapseomatic " id="id9363"  title="Author's Commentary">Author's Commentary</span>
<div id="target-id9363" class="collapseomatic_content ">
</span></div>
<div><span style="color: #666699;">This was done for Holocaust Remembrance day. Just a quick blurb from Samuel’s POV, post war. I wanted to explore what he might think of this day.</span></div>
<div><span style="color: #666699;"></div>

We would be happy to help you write clean code, but this is an absolute mess. Can you please post how you are using the plugin on your first example:

Hello and welcome back! Thank you for responding to everyone’s threads; I’m sure that took a while.

Ja, I’m not sure if WordPress is adding extra code or what. but for example, all I’m writing is:
[expand title=”Author’s Commentary”]
This was done for Holocaust Remembrance day. Just a quick blurb from Samuel’s POV, post war. I wanted to explore what he might think of this day.
[/expand]
It looks like this in visual editor: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nqkapn83sjov9mj/Screenshot%202014-03-11%2015.14.27.png

Please do not use Visual Editor when using Shortcodes. You are only asking for trouble with the way WordPress handles ‘fancy quotes’ and what not.

Second, the TwentyFourteen theme is using :before and :after pseudo css elements. This is causing havoc with expand elements that use the span tag. There for it is recommended that you either define tag=”div” or set div as the default tag under the plugin settings page.

Try this (in Text/HTML Mode… NOT VISUAL)

[expand title="Author's Commentary" tag="div"]This was done for Holocaust Remembrance day. Just a quick blurb from Samuel's POV, post war. I wanted to explore what he might think of this day.[/expand]

Hello, sorry for the delay
I tried that in the Text Editor to no avail. I know that WP tries to add on a ton of crap that ends up screwing up the codes x.x Not sure what happened but this all started after that last update to the plugin.

Please contact us direct at info [at] twinpictures [dot] de with a link to this thread. We will take a closer look and get a working example set up (or update the plugin if there is an issue)
