Try replacing the following function with this.
I also changed the shortcodes.

function wpex_process($content) {
	$offset = 0;
	$stag = '[more ';
	$etag = '[/more]';
	while(stripos($content, $stag, $offset)) {
		// string to replace
		$s = stripos($content, $stag, $offset);
		$e = stripos($content, $etag, $s) + strlen($etag); 

		// inside data
		$ds = stripos($content, ']', $s) + 1;
		$de = $e - strlen($etag);

		// style tag
		$ss = $s + strlen($stag);
		$se = $ds - 1;

		$sstring = substr($content, $s, $e - $s);
		$sdesc = substr($content, $ss, $se - $ss);
		$sdata = substr($content, $ds, $de - $ds);

		mt_srand((double)microtime() * 1000000);
		$rnum = mt_rand();

		$new_string .= '<a class="plsreadmore" id="showmore' . $rnum . '" onclick="this.className=\'hide\'" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById(\'wpex' . $rnum . '\'))"> ... ' . $sdesc . ' </a>';
		$new_string .= '<span class="wpex_div" id="wpex' . $rnum . '">';
		$new_string .= '<script>expand(document.getElementById(\'wpex' . $rnum . '\')); expand(document.getElementById(\'wpexlink' . $rnum . '\'))</script>';

		$sdata = preg_replace('^</br>sim', '', $sdata);

		$content = wpex_str_replace_once($sstring, $new_string . $sdata . '<a class="plsreadmore" onclick="document.getElementById(\'showmore' . $rnum . '\').className=\'plsreadmore\'" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById(\'wpex' . $rnum . '\'))"> ... close </a></span>', $content);

		$offset = $s + 1;
	}

	return $content;
}

Update: adding a blank link to the ‘close’ tag works as it will reload the page.

function pobo_rmi_morelink_filter($link){
	global $post;
	$my_id = $post->ID;
	 //$spanId = "more-" . $post->ID;
		$post_object= get_post($my_id);
		$content = $post_object->post_content;
        // grab only the stuff after 'more'
        $debris = explode('<!--more-->', $content);

	$link.='</p><p class="readmoreinline">'.$debris[1].'<a class="close" href="">(close)</a></p>';
	return $link;
}

add_filter('the_content_more_link', pobo_rmi_morelink_filter, 999);

I don’t get a persistent ‘read more’ link, it just disappears entirely.

I have modified the files and can get a ‘close’ link at the end, but can’t get the ‘more’ link back afterwards. Just a warning – I don’t know much about js and sort of fudged this together. Anyone got any suggestions?

Javascript file (pobo_rmi.js)

var $j = jQuery.noConflict();

$j('document').ready(function(){
	$j('.readmoreinline').hide();
	$j('.close').hide();
	$j('.more-link').click(function(e){
		e.preventDefault();
		$j(this).empty().parent().next('.readmoreinline').show();
		$j('.close').show(); 

			$j('.close').click(function(e){
	$j('.readmoreinline').hide();
	$j('.close').hide();
	});
	});

});

read-more-inline.php

function pobo_rmi_morelink_filter($link){
	global $post;
	$my_id = $post->ID;
	 //$spanId = "more-" . $post->ID;
		$post_object= get_post($my_id);
		$content = $post_object->post_content;
        // grab only the stuff after 'more'
        $debris = explode('<!--more-->', $content);

	$link.='</p><p class="readmoreinline">'.$debris[1].'</p><a class="close">close</a>';
	return $link;
}

add_filter('the_content_more_link', pobo_rmi_morelink_filter, 999);

Excellent, thank you!

Will the new gallery uploader be incorporated into meta box on the edit post/page screen in the next version of Portfolio Slideshow?

Look under ‘Forums’ in the dashboard, they’re under ‘Ad Units’

Nevermind, I’ve fixed it.
Something in my theme stylesheet was overriding the styles I defined in the plugin.
Fixed by copying the plugin style to my theme stylesheet.
