Title: New Plugin: “Hide/Show” Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # New Plugin: “Hide/Show” * [vaamyob](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vaamyob/) * (@vaamyob) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-plugin-hideshow/) * This plugin allows you to specify post content that is only visible when the user is viewing your post in “full” mode. Conversely, it will allow you to specify content that is only visible in “excerpt” mode. * A practical use would be to display a thumbnail of a movie/large picture in the“ preview” of the post (your main page), then display the full image when the user has decided to read your post. * I’ll eventually be adding it to the official wordpress list of plugins, but until then, you can demo/download it here: * [http://www.xyooj.com](http://www.xyooj.com) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * [bricolou](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bricolou/) * (@bricolou) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-plugin-hideshow/#post-305898) * This would be great if the hidden part was only available to subscribers.

I went to your site is no longer there. Anyway is would be nice if you can do something like this display thumbnail in the index page that become fullsize image on single.php post page. * Thanks * Thread Starter [vaamyob](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vaamyob/) * (@vaamyob) * [20 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-plugin-hideshow/#post-306411) * rickyhsu, * it’s there, just in the archives. * What you’re requiring is EXACTLY what this plugin was developed for. The ability to hide/show post content, depending on how the post is viewed. * [http://www.xyooj.com/blog/plink/technical/26/hideshow/](http://www.xyooj.com/blog/plink/technical/26/hideshow/) * [rickyhsu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rickyhsu/) * (@rickyhsu) * [20 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-plugin-hideshow/#post-306412) * Thanks, I installed the plugin and I get this error do you I have done wrong.

Button to show only in excerpt mode 2. Button to show only in full mode 3. Button to show only if registered user/logged in * The buttons will generate tags like: `Replace with content that will only be shown in full post view mode.` * `Replace with content that will only be shown in preview mode. ` * `Replace with content that will only be shown in when the user is logged in.` * Just overwrite the stuff in between the tags with the html you want displayed at the appropriate time. i.e. * `
