   Hi. Is there a way to create (I think it's called expanding text) in a post? I want the first couple of paragraphs to be visible, and then a link that says "continue" that will display the rest of the post when clicked. However, I don't want this on every post--I want to be able to pick and choose which posts have this.

   Thanks in advance!

   You must use "<!--more-->" tag. The text before "<!--more-->" is always shown and the rest of the post is shown when you click the "Continue reading" link.

   Well, if you want something that uses AJAX to dynamically show the text without a reload, I saw a plugin that does just that at wp-plugins.net. Just a suggestion.

   Thanks to both of you!

   jonlandrum, do you know the name of the plugin by any chance?
