plugin for posts

  • Hi there,

    I was just wondering whether anyone could recommend a plugin for me. Basically the home page, when you publish a new post, the newest post appears on the top but it appears as the whole text. I was wondering whether there is any way of making it so that only a little bit of the post appears and once clicked, the rest of the post appears. something like a drop down option maybe?

    also, whether this is possibly for the pages (mainly the case study page I have)

    the page is https://www.wisteriabusinessplans.co.uk

    Cheers and any help/tips will be very much appreciated

    oh ok, cool. what about the case stuides page?

    Same idea, just use a category instead of a page maybe?

    add category instead>? how would this help or more importantly, how would i get this “category” suggestion to work. as you can see, I am not very good/experience with wordpress.

    thanks

    just an update,

    I have sorted out the home page/post page with thte “more tag” which was v useful, thanks.

    But I am still stuck with the page (case study page) for each case study I want just the photo and the 5 points at the top of each case study to show and once clicked, then the rest of the text about that case study to appea. However, I know that once I use the “more” for the very first case study that the rest of the page will disappear, howeover I don’t want this to happen. any ideas? would be very much appreciated!

    Thanks

    Maybe you could create a category called “case studies” and add posts to this category.

    I could do that, but then this would mean that the case studies will appear under the home page, where i want it to be on the case study page.

    You can remove them by using query_posts() or Create a custom post_type for them.

    also, I have done the “more tag” so far for my posts and its pretty much what i wanted.

    However, instead of it opening up a new page when you click on the “read more” or whatever the customised more tag is, is there any chance of it simply expanding so that the rest of the text for that post is displayed on the same page rather than being opened up in a new window?

    Thanks again
