This is my first contribution to the WP community! It is a start, and I hope time permitting to advance the features in this plugin. This plugin aims to consolidate your post information into a collapsible panel (using jQuery) that can save space on your page.

You can see what it looks like below on this post, and you can test the interaction from the main page.

Usage

1. Download, upload, activate.
2. Add the following code somewhere in The Loop.

<?php
if (function_exists('postinfo')) {
  postinfo();
}
?>

Changelog

Considerations

I’ve noticed different styling results when using the function on single post pages and the loop on other pages. Be sure to test both for differences.

To Do

1. Add an option page to choose the toggle effect and select information to be displayed. (Obselete)
2. Add icons.
3. Add ability to degrade for users w/o JS enabled.
4. Clean up plugin code.
