    Hello,

    I am trying to make a long text element easier to manage. I’d like to have a main ‘read more…’ toggle and then divide the text up into 8 sections with their own toggle. I want the whole thing to be closed on draw and I only want the first ‘read more…’ to show. Then, when you open that one and read the first section, you find the next ‘read more…’ and can expand that next section, and so on.

    Each section would have it’s own close toggle and you could only have one section open at a time. Probably best if on close, you are returned to the top?

    I’ve maganed to make a simple one toggle version here, but I can;t figure out how to make the other 7 without the toggles buttons displaying after the first one is open: Please see the BIO section here: https://77.104.152.113/~mobili16/sep22/about/

    Your help would be very much appreciated! Thanks – Franklin

    oh, and I’d also like to have hover and selected colors, if possible ??

    one more thing… at present, when I click on my close toggle, it doesn’t jump all the way to the top of the text, but a bit under that, for some reason.

    thank you for your help!

    What you need to look into is somethign called nested expands with highlander grouping. We even put togher a clear demonstration at that link.

    If you want an easier way to manage the collapse elements, you might want to consider the Collapse-Commander add-on. It comes with a very high level of support where we would even set up a working example on your site. This alone might be well worth the cost of the plugin.
