In my website I have really long articles. It would be nicer if the user only sees the headings and can click on for instance a big + sign to fold it open and get the rest of the text. Is this possible within the Zeolite template and how to do it?
I couldn’t find a proper solution on the internet. I have the MOOaccordion module installed but that was not what I needed. I just want it in the plain article pages.
Your help is really appreciated.

You can do this with highslide. I don’t recall if it’s listed somewhere in the forum template tutorials, but you can find more info on the actual highslide website.

It’s a great idea, and I have to look into it more too, for those long articles. You can use the “readmore” obviously, but I’m sure you already knew about that.

Thanks for your quick answer but this is not exactly what I mean. As far as i can see it, Highslide opens extra information in new windows and I just want to fold and unfold text within the same window. Sorry for my English 😉
