How Do I Make Text Expandable in Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:06 am

When you want to add emphasis to text on your Squarespace website, you can use the tag. This will make the text bolder and more noticeable.

You can also use the tag to underline text, which can be useful for links. Finally, the

tag will automatically add a paragraph break after the text, making it easier to read.

To make text expandable in Squarespace, simply add the following code to your HTML:

This code will tell Squarespace to insert a “read more” link after the first paragraph of your article. When clicked, this link will expand the rest of the text.

Adding this code is a great way to make long articles more readable, and it can also be used to create “teasers” for articles on your blog.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that expanding text in Squarespace can be tricky and may not always work as intended. If you are not careful, you may end up with text that is too small or too large and does not fit properly in the space allotted.
