Simple Expand

v1.3 · 50+ active installs · Free

Easy and lightweight read-more functionality. Wrap text inside [expand] shortcodes — the output is a native HTML <details> toggle. No JavaScript, no settings page, no bloat.

Highlights


What it does

Adds an [expand] shortcode you can drop into any post, page, or text widget. Give it a title, put your hidden content inside, close the tag — that’s the full surface area.

The point is the absence of features. There’s no settings page, no animation library, no CSS framework, no editor block panel with twelve toggles. If you need a read-more on one paragraph in one post, you don’t want a plugin that wants to manage your whole site.
