Show / Hide Content Plugin

Editor's Note
  • This extension requires registration to download.
Easily create nice sliding effects for showing and hiding sub-content in your Joomla! articles. Expands and collapses parts of the content by mouse-click or hover. Lots of parameters and the use of customizable templates, makes this Plugin very flexible and powerful.

Features of "Show / Hide Content"

* Mootools (1.11 or 1.2 upgrade) sliding scroll effect by clicking or hovering over the title.
* Use Plugin configurations, inline-tags and (show/hide)-templates
* Customize titles, title html, content-html-wrapper, images (displayed as a list)
* Define other titles, images, title html-wrapper when the object is expanded
* Define one or more CSS suffixes for title- and content-wrapper
* Include CSS-files to page
* Set slide duration
* Define if the content will be open after loading
* Hide title when object opens
* Close object, if you click with the mouse on content
* Set the direction: horizontal or vertical
* Display as list, link or no link
* Set title by hover with the mouse or make it the same as the object title

New features in version 1.1.x:

* Automatic installer / updater
* Automatic update notifier. This requires the php setting 'allow_url_fopen' to be turned on
* Added fade effect ("System - Mootools Upgrade" musst be activated)
* Added system plug-in
o Render on the whole page (components, modules or in the template) if desired
o Special rendering for PDF, print and RSS view (content is displayed, no {showhide}/{/showhide} tags)
o If set, the titles of Show / Hide Object in PDF's, print and RSS views will be hidden (so you don't have "click to read more" or things like that)
o Use the password parameter (password="code set in the system plugin parameter") that nobody can misuse show / hide content (e.g. in comments)
* No conflict ("System - Mootools Upgrade" musst be activated). If set to yes, $ will be replaced with document.id() preventing conflicts with other Javascript libraries.
* Trims p tags automatically surrounding the showhide tags

Thank you very much for this great very usefull and free plugin. I have seen you have even other great plugins too. But first, i have installed this plugin very easy, then i have checked on your website the using of it. It was very easy with your documentation and samples to find out what i need, and i am not a coder. PS: the important thing for me in such content plugins is, that the plugins are very seo friendly. I´ve checked it withou Java Script and have checked the dev. website in google and all seems fine. Google can read the expandable content.

Very effective for reveal/hide text or any article content. So far only limitation I see is one hide/reveal entry per article

I was looking for a plug in that would hide and show text from links and this plugin does a great job and has a lot of options to it.

I had two issues with it and the support folks came up with the solutions. One was a user caused error and the other was updated with a new version of the plugin that allows you to use quote marks when working in editors (JoomlaCK in my case) that oddly enough strips quote marks out and replaces it with &quote which does not allow the plugin to work correctly, but, with the newer version that the developer team sent me that issue resolved very quickly!

Thanks guys.
