WP ShowHide Elements

2008-01-31 @ 18:27

Adds a Javascript for you to hide or show what ever ID you want, with a mouse click. You need to add some code to your theme to make it work. With this you can create dynamic menus that can easily be hidden or shown.

Install

  1. Upload the FOLDER ‘wp-showhide-elements’ to the /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin ‘WP ShowHide Elements’ through the ‘Plugins’ menu in admin

Usage

  1. Create a div to show / hide. Add an ID and name it whatever you want.
  2. Create a anchor and add the ID of your div into wp_show() function.
<p id="mytest">my text</p>
<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="wp_showhide('mytest')">my link</a>

Possible future upgrades

  • Support for multiple elements to be closed in one click
  • Choice on what specific pages to include the Javascript

        Did I miss something? Seems I’m missing/wanting the same as many others. First of all. Thank you. The WP ShowHide Elements plug in is exactly what I was looking for. eassily installed and it (more or less) does just what it is supposed to do ..BUT when the page first loads, the default is to ”show” with clicking the link to ”hide”. I’d prefer the reverse (default to ”hide” click the link to ”show”.) .

        I tried changing the ”block” or ”none” in various other combinations in the ”wp-showhide-elements.js” but couldnt get it to work as I wanted.

      Can you add something like a cookie to remember the status of the IDs (to show or hide) when we navigate through the site or reload the page?…

      Help – I don’t understand how Paul’s problem got solved. How can the text be hidden at first, and then revealed?
      Thanks!

      Hey,
      I’m also looking for a solution to this. How can the element be hidden by default and shown on click of the link?.
      Thanks

      Hi,
      I’m also looking for a solution to this problem. And to be able to make more than one element show on the same click. (Using download-elements with their own ID’s.)
      thank you

      Yip, I would also like to find a solution to the text being hidden by default.

      I have the same question as everyone else. Was this ever resolved? How do you modify this plugin to hide the text initially?

      Thanks!

      This worked wonders for me, after installing and activating, inside posts I used a button as the switch:

        (input type = ”button” name = ”button” value = ”Show/Hide Code” onclick = ”wp_showhide(‘vbcode’)” /)

      I’ve been including this plugin in my themes for a while and came up with a shortcode to make it easier for my clients.

      Open source contribution.

      Add this to functions.php:

      function Showhide($atts, $content = null){
      extract( shortcode_atts( array(
      ‘title’ => ‘Add Title’,
      ), $atts ) );
      $nice_title = str_replace(‘ ‘,”,$title);
      $rand = rand(0,20);
      $accordion = ‘‘.$title.’‘;
      $accordion .= ”. do_shortcode($content) .”;
      return $accordion;
      }

      add_shortcode(‘Showhide’,’Showhide’);

      Here’s usage for the shortcode:
      [Showhide title=’A really good Question?’]
      With a really good answer.
      [/Showhide]

      Enjoy!

        Code got mangled:

        Here’s the function again

        function Showhide($atts, $content = null){
        extract( shortcode_atts( array(
        ‘title’ => ‘Add Title’,
        ), $atts ) );
        $nice_title = str_replace(‘ ‘,”,$title);

        $rand = rand(0,20);

        $accordion = ‘<h5 class=”question”><a onclick=”wp_showhide(\”.$nice_title.$rand.’\’)” href=”javascript:void(0);”>’.$title.'</a></h5>’;
        $accordion .= ‘<div id=”‘.$nice_title.$rand.'” class=”answer” style=”display: none”>’. do_shortcode($content) .'</div>’;

        return $accordion;
        }

      Thanks for the great plugin!

      I was having the same problem getting the hidden box to start closed, and was a little confused by some of the replies. I am sure there is a better solutions than this, and one possibly one that could be incorporated into the plugin itself, but all you have to do is on the hidden content section put style=”display:none;” this way the content starts hidden, and when the button is clicked it checks what the current status is and reverses it.
