Hi all,

 

it is a new site and just going live, i am using the dawn theme.

on my desktop site i have a lot of information on most pages, but the problem is with my mobile site there is too much text and a lot of scrolling to get through, is there something that can be done differently on the mobile site.

for example show some text and have a read more button?

 

hope someone can help

 

Thanks

Ryan

Hi @RyanB2 
To show the read more button you can add the below codes to theme.liquid at bottom

 

 

<script type="text/javascript">
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
    // Check if we are on a mobile device
    if (window.innerWidth <= 768) {
        const wrappers = document.querySelectorAll('.rich-text__wrapper .rich-text__text');
        wrappers.forEach(wrapper => {
            const h4Tags = wrapper.querySelectorAll('h4');
            if (h4Tags.length > 1) {
                // Initially hide all h4 tags except the first one
                h4Tags.forEach((tag, index) => {
                    if (index > 0) tag.style.display = 'none';
                });

                // Create Read More/Less button
                const readMoreBtn = document.createElement('button');
                readMoreBtn.innerHTML = 'Read More';
                readMoreBtn.addEventListener('click', function() {
                    let isHidden = h4Tags[1].style.display === 'none';
                    h4Tags.forEach((tag, index) => {
                        if (index > 0) tag.style.display = isHidden ? 'block' : 'none';
                    });
                    readMoreBtn.innerHTML = isHidden ? 'Read Less' : 'Read More';
                    isHidden = !isHidden;
                });

                // Append button after the last h4 tag
                h4Tags[h4Tags.length - 1].insertAdjacentElement('afterend', readMoreBtn);
            }
        });
        
        wrappers.forEach(wrapper => {
            const pTags = wrapper.querySelectorAll('p');
            if (pTags.length > 1) {
                // Initially hide all p tags except the first one
                pTags.forEach((tag, index) => {
                    if (index > 0) tag.style.display = 'none';
                });

                // Create Read More/Less button
                const readMoreBtn = document.createElement('button');
                readMoreBtn.innerHTML = 'Read More';
                readMoreBtn.addEventListener('click', function() {
                    let isHidden = pTags[1].style.display === 'none';
                    pTags.forEach((tag, index) => {
                        if (index > 0) tag.style.display = isHidden ? 'block' : 'none';
                    });
                    readMoreBtn.innerHTML = isHidden ? 'Read Less' : 'Read More';
                    isHidden = !isHidden;
                });

                // Append button after the last p tag
                pTags[pTags.length - 1].insertAdjacentElement('afterend', readMoreBtn);
            }
        });
    }
});

</script>

 

 

And add this css before the above script

 

 

<style>
.rich-text__wrapper button {
    background-color: #007bff;
    color: white;
    padding: 10px 15px;
    border: none;
    border-radius: 5px;
    cursor: pointer;
    margin-top: 10px;
}

.rich-text__wrapper button:hover {
    background-color: #0056b3;
}
</style>

Hi, 

Sometimes plugins offer the solution to have 2 different layouts one for phone/tablet and one for PC.

maybe something like this: https://apps.shopify.com/shoppad?locale=nl

If you want a read more button you can add it in the code.
