Can someone please help me out to make this work? It doesn't show any errors but the button doesn't do anything. The short text displays upon page load, with the button displaying "show more" as intended, but doesn't do anything when you click on it. Here is my code:
let fullText; // variable to hold the full text let shortText; // variable to hold the short version of the text $w.onReady(function () { // how many characters to include in the shortened version const shortTextLength = 93; // read the full text and store it in the fullText variable fullText = $w("#text3").text // grab the number of characters defined in shortTextLength and store them in the shortText variable shortText = fullText.substr(0, shortTextLength) + "..."; // set the contents of the text element to be the short text $w("#text3").text = shortText; }); export function button1_click(event) { //check the contents of the text element if ($w("#text3").text === shortText) { // if currently displaying short text, display the full text $w("#text3").text = fullText; $w("#button1").label = "Show less"; } else { // if currently displaying full text, display the short text $w("#text3").text = shortText; $w("#button1").label = "Show more"; } }
Check your property panel for the button and make sure the property name is the same as in your code and that the button1_click function is marked there.
