 * Is there a way to do 2 read mores on the same post? Meaning one where the read
   more text same one thing and the other says another? Even a child plugin would
   be accaptable but not preferred (if even possible).
 * Please help. Thanks!

 * Hello.
 * Of course it is.
 * You can have multiple readmore sections in a single page with different texts.

 * How? There is no option to do this. Can you do it with an older version of the
   plugin?
 * If so where can I download older version?

 * Josh, I hope my following words do not insult you, but they may help you better
   visualize just what’s going on with George’s plugin.
 * Let’s call “longtext” a body of information that you want to define for readmore
   functionality. Immediately before longtext you must insert a [read more] tag.
   Then, immediately after longtext, you must insert a [/read] tag. When executed,
   the leading [read more] tag apparently seeks out the **next following occurrence**
   of the [/read] tag and then displays everything in between the tags as the desired
   longtext. Any such single implementation of the read more functionality can be
   visualized as a unique [read more]-[/read] _instance_. Because each instance 
   is unique, you can have as many instances as you want on a page.
 * Note that the plugin’s apparent underlying logic results in the inability to 
   NEST readmore instances. For that matter, I’m not sure why anyone would want 
   to do that in the first place. Read more tags can NOT be nested.
 * I usually invoke HTML editing mode when inserting [read more] and [/read] tags
   because I find it easier to visualize just what will be displayed when the read
   more instance is initiated. Otherwise, you can just go ahead and enter the tags
   in visual editing mode.
 * On another note, the Read More button text is sensitive to what you place at 
   the end of the label. For example, _Read more >>_ will throw Read More Without
   Refresh into a tizzy. I use the following labels: Read more» and Read less« to
   insert >> and << at the end of those labels.
 * Good luck to you. I hope this helps.

 * Thanks [@reraymond](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reraymond/) however my
   questions is not coding the multiple read more’s. What I am asking is how to 
   have “read more link A” then “read more link B different text”
 * Read more link 1 – “Click for address”
    Read more link 2 – “Read more about…”

 * Ah, I get it. Unfortunately, George’s plugin doesn’t support that capability.
   It used to, but now does not.
 * There are a number of other plugins that do support that functionality, however.
   One I’ve used before is _Read More & Accordian_, but it has a lot of bells and
   whistles that I don’t really need or for that matter want. I’ve also used _Expander
   Maker_ in the past. I liked it because it was very simple, but it doesn’t seem
   to be available now.
 * If George were to add, say the ability to automatically create a user-assignable
   class for the [read more] instance, then individualized button labels could be
   easily created just by applying simple CSS. It could work something like this:
   the user would enter, say _[read more, 1]_ and then George’s code would use the“
   1” argument to create a class, say _rmwr-1_ for the current readmore instance,
   and any other readmore instances that were created using the “1” argument. Of
   course, that says a lot for just incorporating the desired label text as the 
   argument, itself.

 * Hey!
 * Shortcode functionality was updated according users’ needs (dynamic text upvotes)–
   thus, current version supports a dynamic text for it.
 * You can still [download a previous version of the plugin](https://kinsta.com/knowledgebase/download-older-versions-of-wordpress-plugins/).

 * Current version includes a dynamic text according to the settigns – its already
   available.
 * Im planning to release a mix of dynamic + static overriden texts in a future 
   release, but there is no ETA yet.
