Code Toolkit
Written By Squarestylist Support

What You'll Create

Expandable text toggles within Auto Layout List Sections - click to reveal additional content formatted in italics within list item descriptions.

The Problem It Solves

List Section descriptions can get lengthy and overwhelming. This technique lets you hide detailed content behind "Read More" toggles, keeping the initial view clean while making expanded info accessible.

Perfect For

Service details, Team bios, Product descriptions, FAQ-style lists, Expandable portfolios.

What Makes This Different

jQuery detects italic text in descriptions and converts it to toggleable content. Click the toggle text to expand/collapse. "Read More" changes to "Read Less" when open.
