Peekaboo Posts

Sometimes called "Expandable Post Summaries" - this has nothing to do with photography, but something I found useful when setting up this blog.

It seems some of these posts tend to get a bit.... well, "wordy". lol. The obvious need to shorten them into something a bit more readable for the main page sent me looking. I'd seen this behavior in other blogs but had no idea.

There are lots of hacks out there, but few of them worked. I ended up using a Java based solution which was super easy to implement in the stock Blogger issue templates.

Here are the instructions in detail:

Much thanks to Ramani - sounds like others found it to work by the comments also.

And if you prefer to see the post expand in the same (main) page rather than a re-direct as I've implemented - check this varient of the same instructions:

Enjoy!
