## Sharraxaad

Truncate Comments is a plugin that hides a part of a long comment under a “**Read
more**” link that, when clicked, reveals the hidden part of the comment. The plugin
provides the functionality of Amazon.com comments.

If you liked my plugin, please **rate** it.

The plugin uses [jQuery Collapser](http://www.aakashweb.com/jquery-plugins/collapser/)
by Aakash Chakravarthy.

It seems like a feature that would be part of wp core. This awesome plugin makes
it possible to avoid having walls of text in the comments sections of many blogs…

Very useful plugin. What I miss is the possibility to collapse the opened comment
back after I have read it or decided not to read (link like “Collapse back” or “
Read less”). Or to collapse automatically after time the blog owner can define ´

Super, just adjusted line-height via css to keep theme style! A “Read Less” to collapse
long comments would be also great. Thx, c–

Really simple to set up and great for de-cluttering the comments section. Exactly
what I was looking for
