Overview

About this plugin

Collapse It is a modern Gutenberg block that allows you to collapse or expand any content area with a smooth fade effect and a customizable “Show More / Show Less” button. The block is highly flexible, letting you set the collapsed height, button styles, and texts. It also features smart empty-content detection: if the block is empty (even if it contains an empty shortcode block), it will automatically hide itself, keeping your pages clean and professional.

Key Features:

* Collapse/expand any content with a fade effect

* Automatically hides when empty (even with empty shortcode or any dynamic blocks)

* Customizable collapsed height

* Fully customizable Show More / Show Less button (text, color, alignment, border radius, font size, padding)

* Gutenberg block editor support

* No tracking, no ads, no bloat

* 100% WordPress Coding Standards compliant

* Developer: Dashboard Team

Usage

  • Insert the “Show More (Collapse)” block in the editor.
  • Add any content (text, images, blocks, or even shortcodes) inside the block.
  • Adjust the collapsed height and button styles from the block settings panel.
  • The block will automatically hide itself if left empty (including empty shortcode blocks).
