## Descripció

**AddonCraft Read More Show Less** adds a clean, accessible **Read More / Show Less
toggle** to long content in WordPress. Long posts, pages, descriptions and text 
blocks are cut to a height you choose, with an optional fade at the bottom. Visitors
click **Read more** to expand the full text and **Show less** to collapse it again.

Use it to tidy up long articles, FAQ answers, author bios, service descriptions,
reviews and landing pages without deleting a word or splitting content across pages.

The hidden text stays in the page HTML, so **search engines can still read and index
all of it**.

#### Three ways to add Read More

 1. **Automatic (no code)** – turn on _Auto-apply to post content_ and every long single
    post and page gets a Read More button.
 2. **Shortcode** – wrap any content in `[addoremo_read_more]…[/addoremo_read_more]`,
    with optional per-block height and button text.
 3. **CSS class** – add the `read-more` class to any block or element. Works with the
    block editor (Gutenberg), Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder and other page builders
    that let you set a CSS class.

#### Features

 * **Auto-apply** – collapse long post and page content automatically, no shortcode
   needed.
 * **Custom collapsed height** – choose how much content shows before the Read More
   button.
 * **Fade effect** – fade collapsed text into a solid color or a two-color gradient.
 * **Button style presets** – show the toggle as a text link, a solid button or 
   an outline pill.
 * **Custom button text** – change «Read more» and «Show less» globally or per block(
   e.g. «Show more», «Continue reading», «See less»).
 * **Arrow icons** – built-in chevron with adjustable size, or upload your own up
   and down icons from the Media Library.
 * **Full styling controls** – text color, button color, hover color, alignment,
   font family, font weight and italic.
 * **Smooth animation** – set the expand and collapse speed in milliseconds. Respects
   the visitor’s reduced-motion setting.
 * **Mobile or desktop only** – show the toggle on all devices, only on mobile, 
   or only on desktop, with a custom breakpoint.
 * **Remember open state** – keep a section expanded after the visitor reloads the
   page.
 * **Short content left alone** – content shorter than the collapsed height shows
   normally, with no button.
 * **Multiple sections per page** – every matching block gets its own independent
   toggle.
 * **Live preview** – see your changes on the settings page before you save.
 * **SEO friendly** – content is only visually collapsed, never removed from the
   page.
 * **Accessible** – a real button element with `aria-expanded`, keyboard support
   and visible focus styles.
 * **Lightweight** – one small script and one small stylesheet, loaded only when
   the plugin is enabled.
 * **Translation ready** – includes a POT file.

#### Shortcode example

    ```
    [addoremo_read_more height="200" more="Read more" less="Show less"]Your long content here.[/addoremo_read_more]
    ```

 * `height` – collapsed height in pixels.
 * `more` – text for the expand button.
 * `less` – text for the collapse button.

All attributes are optional. Anything you leave out uses the global settings.

#### Using Read More with the block editor or Elementor

 * **Block editor (Gutenberg):** select a block, open **Advanced  Additional CSS
   class(es)** and enter `read-more`.
 * **Elementor:** select a widget or container, open **Advanced  CSS Classes** and
   enter `read-more`.

You can change the target class or selector under **Read More  General**.

## PMF

### How do I add a Read More button to a WordPress post?

Go to **Read More  General** and turn on **Auto-apply to post content**. Long posts
and pages now collapse automatically with a Read More button. No code is needed.

### How do I add Read More to only part of a page?

Wrap that part in the `[addoremo_read_more]` shortcode, or add the `read-more` CSS
class to the block you want to collapse.

### Can I change the «Read more» and «Show less» text?

Yes. Set the global text under **Read More  Labels**, or use the `more` and `less`
shortcode attributes to set different text for one block.

### Does it work with Elementor, Divi or other page builders?

Yes. Add the `read-more` CSS class to any widget, module or section. The shortcode
also works wherever your builder runs shortcodes.

### Does hidden content hurt SEO?

No. The full content stays in the page HTML and is only collapsed visually, so search
engines can still crawl it.

### Can I show the toggle only on mobile?

Yes. Under **Read More  General**, set **Show on devices** to _Mobile only_ and 
adjust the mobile breakpoint if needed.

### Why is there no button on some content?

The button only appears when content is taller than the collapsed height. Short 
content is shown in full.

### I changed the settings but the front end looks the same.

Clear your caching plugin, CDN or server cache, then refresh the page. If you use
the shortcode, its `more` and `less` attributes override the global button text.

### Will it slow down my site?

No. It adds one small script and one small stylesheet, and it does not load any 
external files or fonts.
