Reply To: Excerpt open by default

@ Alex

This is possible but requires editing the excerpt-plus.js file. Open it and remove this:

// As the page is rendered the excerpt is hidden via the CSS style. Hide the details and show the excerpt.
$('.cn-hide').css('display', 'none');
$('.cn-excerpt').css('display', 'block');

$('h3.cn-accordion-item,span.cn-show-more').click( function() {
    var $this = $(this);
    var uuid = $this.attr('data-uuid');

    if ( $( '#cn-detail-' + uuid ).css('display') == 'block' ) {

        // Hide detail; show excerpt.
        $( '#cn-detail-' + uuid ).slideUp( 1000, function() {
            $( '#cn-excerpt-' + uuid ).fadeIn(1000);
            $( '#cn-toggle-' + uuid ).toggleClass('cn-open');
        });

    } else {

        // Hide excerpt; show detail.
        $( '#cn-excerpt-' + uuid ).fadeOut( 1000, function() {
            $( '#cn-detail-' + uuid ).slideDown(1000);
            $( '#cn-toggle-' + uuid ).toggleClass('cn-open');
        });
    }

});

Instead of overwriting the original file, drop it in this folder (you’ll have to create it):

../wp-content/uploads/connections-templates/excerpt-plus/

Name the file as: excerpt-plus.min.js

Hope that helps!
