Blogger expandable post summaries

Date: 2007-11-28  |   Tags: blogger
Here is the link I used to get expandable post summaries on Blogger.

http://hackosphere.blogspot.com/2006/11/selective-expandable-posts.html

This hack avoids showing the "Read more..." link even if there is
nothing more to read. (The Blogger help article had this problem.)
However, this hack still has this problem if you click on the "Newer
Posts" or "Older Posts" at the bottom of the page.

Here is what's put in the post template:
Type your summary here
<span id="fullpost">
Type rest of the post here
</span>

Post a comment
Required
Required, but not displayed
Optional

Format using Markdown. (No HTML.)
  • Code blocks: prefix each line by at least 4 spaces or 1 tab (and a blank line before and after)
  • Code span: surround with backticks
  • Blockquotes: prefix lines to be quoted with >
  • Links: <URL>
  • Links w/ description: [description](URL)
