How Do I Add a Collapsible Text Area in WordPress?
Adding a collapsible text area to a WordPress blog can be done in a few simple steps. First, create a new file in your blog’s wp-content/plugins directory and name it collapsible-text.
php. Within this file, add the following code:.
text_area = is_active_text_area( ‘collapsible’ ); // Set attributes $this->collapsible = true; $this->close = ‘collapsible_close'; $this->content = ”; } // Add a ‘collapsible’ attribute to a text area function add_collapsible_attribute() { // Check if the text area already has a ‘collapsible’ attribute if ( $this->has_attribute( ‘collapsible’ )) { $this->collapsible = true; } } // Set the attributes function set_collapsible_attribute() { // Check if the ‘collapsible’ attribute is set if ( $this->has_attribute( ‘collapsible’ )) { $this->collapsible = false; } } // Add a ‘close’ action to the text area function add_close_action() { // Check if the ‘close’ action is set if ( $this->has_action( ‘close’ )) { $this->close = ‘collapsible_close'; } } // Add a ‘content’ block to the text area function add_content() { // Check if the ‘content’ block is set if ( $this->has_block( ‘content’ )) { $this->content = ”; } } // Return the text area return $this->text_area; }.
Once you have activated the plugin and added the appropriate attributes, you will need to add a “collapsible” action to the text area. To do this, add the following line to your theme’s functions.php file:
add_action( ‘textarea_close’, ‘activate_collapsible_text’ );
Finally, you will need to add a “content” block to the text area.php file:
add_block( ‘content’, ‘collapsible_content’ );
Now, when you enter text into the text area, it will automatically collapse according to the settings you have set. You can also use the “collapsible_close” action to close the text area entirely.
In conclusion, adding a collapsible text area to your WordPress blog is a simple process that can add a useful feature to your blog.
