Improve mobile experience

On mobile devices space is limited. Prevent customers from having to swipe past text to see more products or important selling points.

Fundamental UI/UX enhancement

Allowing customers to toggle long text is fundamental to a good user experience. No site should be without it.

Reclaim above the fold space

Above the fold space is precious. Long text shouldn't displace other conversion driving content like products, specs, and social links

About Toggle Description

A Fundamental User Interface Enhancement That No Site Should Be Without

The Toggle Description app allows you to manage the appearance of long text on your site by adding customizable "show more" and "show less" links to text that exceeds a maximum number of words or characters. When users click on these links the text will be shown or collapsed.

Having the ability to toggle long product and collection descriptions greatly improves your site's user interface —especially on mobile devices— and allows you to reclaim the precious above the fold space with more conversion driving content.

Does not affect SEO!

No coding required.

Already Using Tabs or Accordions, Size Charts, Etc..? No Problem!

Toggle Description can collapse text anywhere, even within description enhancements generated by others apps.

Effective Ways to Promote Your Site and Drive Sales With the Reclaimed Above the Fold Space

Here are some suggestions on what can be done with the reclaimed above the fold space:

  • Show related products or promotions
  • Show links to size charts, product specification, etc...
  • Show more pictures
  • Make social sharing buttons more prominent

Wow! This app is perfect, and even more importantly, the service and help from the team is first class! We had a query about a customisation to fit our website, and Skye came back to us immediately and provided assistance with the install and custom edits to make sure it was flawless. We were also really impressed that Skye took the time to notice other aspects of our website that may be affected by the app and ensure that they would all work in conjunction with each other. The app works brilliantly and we no longer have the issue of a ridiculously long product description page! Thank you so much!

If I could, I would give 10 stars, especially for support! Really Skye is incredible helpful and responsive. This is a simple tool but it allows you to do what it promises. I suggest the tool that you can see applied on our e-commerce https://it.arketicom.com and i surely recommend the customer support experience! Thank you

I contacted support regarding using on collection pages.

I added a class to the collection page description

like class="product-single__description" and it worked.

However, It would be really nice to toggle this feature on/off for collection pages independently from product descriptions with a different character amount. Support's response was this.

To work on the collection page enter the following into the Description selector field:

.collection-description

Do you want this to work with the product page too? If so remove the HTML

with the product-single__description CSS class from around the collection description and set the Description selector field to:

.collection-description, .product-single__description

The character/word count you enter will apply to both the collection and product pages. We are working on separating this and adding an explicit option to "toggle collection" and/or "toggle product" description.

Thank you for the valuable feedback.

Toggling the product description independently of the collection description is something we've had several requests for. Since this has become an important feature for our users we will be adding this functionality soon.

Usually one can toggle the collection or product description without having to modify the site's theme. Our support team is always here to assist via phone or email.
