New features

  • Install with Bower: bower install readmore
  • Blocks can now be toggled programmatically: $('article:nth-of-type(3)').readmore('toggle')
  • ARIA semantics describe expanded state and relationship between blocks and their toggles
  • Blocks are now assigned an ID if they don't already have one
  • Install development dependencies with NPM
  • Gulp task to minifiy with UglifyJS

Improvements

  • Height calculations on window resize are "debounced", resulting in more efficient rendering
  • Height calculation in general has been improved
  • The value of the expanded argument passed to the beforeToggle callback now correctly reflects the pre-toggle state
  • Multiple instances are now fully supported: e.g. $('article').readmore({speed: 200}) and $('fieldset').readmore({speed: 900}) will work on the same page
  • Fully responsive, plugin now prefers max-heights set in CSS, even inside media queries

Potentially breaking changes

  • maxHeight option is now collapsedHeight
  • sectionCSS option is now blockCSS
  • toggleSlider() method is now just toggle()
  • Animation is now performed with CSS3 transitions, rather than jQuery.animate()
  • IE 8 and 9 are no longer supported, because those browsers hate kittens
  • init() is now called within a window.onload event handler, which can briefly delay collapsing content
  • setBoxHeight() is now a "private" method called setBoxHeights()
  • resizeBoxes() is also now private
  • Readmore.js now uses attribute selectors, rather than classes
    • The .readmore-js-section and .readmore-js-toggle classes are gone
    • The expandedClass and collapsedClass options are also gone
    • Every Readmore.js block needs an ID, if one is not already present, one will be generated
