Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Simple Expand – Lightweight Read more toggle version 1.3 as active, updated 10d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
A single shortcode you can drop into any post, page, or text widget to get a click-to-expand “read more” toggle. The output is a native HTML <details> element styled with a small inline stylesheet — nothing else.
The point is the absence of features. There is no settings page, no animation library, no editor block panel with twelve toggles. If you need a read-more on one paragraph in one post, you do not want a plugin that wants to manage your whole site.
Usage:
[expand title="My title"] The content goes here. jpg" /> And wrap up with a closing expand tag. [/expand]
Supports a custom CSS class via [expand class="my-class"] and works with WordPress oEmbeds and other shortcodes nested inside.
