Reviews
Yea, it breaks a site quite well.
By rdnard on April 18, 2025
First, the plugin is deprived from ease of use, finding the shortcode is a hell. on its settings in dashboard there is basically nothing really useful than background and text color.
be sure that it will break your site if your php version is up to date. It just has this stiff nature of using it because not all users know they can come back here to search the plugin and a barely visible shortcode amongst multiple information. No useful documentary at all so whats the fun if its so had to get it to work and yet still breaks a site?
I get the point of the plugin, just fix it and its litheness will definitely attract users.
Works as it is supposed to, nice plugin!
By LogoLogics on August 12, 2024
At first, I did not get it to work, until I found out I had to hit the save button in settings first, even if I did not make any changes. After that, worked like a charm.
It might be a good idea, to put these step-by-step instructions on the description/instructions page.
Support was also quick to respond.
Thanks!

It broke my sidebar
By kislany on May 16, 2024
I added the shortcode (using Classic editor) to hide / unhide text in my post and it broke my sidebar, it pushed it to the bottom of the page. There are not many options in the free version to tinker with it, so I can't do anything to fix it. Pity because it works well for the purpose it's created, but I can't have a broken post layout.
Unfortunately not working
By jjaakkee on January 29, 2024
Great if it worked. Unfortunately, it doesn't.
Works perfectly
By scirceo on September 24, 2023
I love this plugin. I have had it active on one website for about 6 months now and have not noticed any weirdness. It works great. I wish the plugin had a paid upgrade so I could be more sure of its future existence and quality.
Stopped working with WordPress Update
By LCarter869 on September 14, 2023
After one of the last couple WordPress updates, the plugin completely stopped working.
Lightweight, just what I needed!
By shirtguy72 on May 11, 2023
Great plugin, the others are TOO heavy. Thanks!
Suggestion, if I may?
Wish "Change Naming"/" could also be achieved via the shortcode, in my instance, I am using the plugin to hide/show song lyrics, wish I could add the song title for each instance.
Also, I wish that in addition to "Border Bottom", there was an option for a full solid border - Button like style
Again, great plugin, THANKS!
Excellent plugin
By brokett on April 27, 2023
I'm a user not a developer, and Read More Without Refresh has been a really excellent plugin for me. It has revolutionised my writing - I can get the main points across succinctly and tuck details away in a read more for someone who is interested in more. I have been using the Classic Editor and am now trying to migrate to Gutenberg. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I have tried entering [read more] xxx [/read] into the code editor in a Paragraph Block, a Classic Block and a Shortcode Block, but so far without success. Can anyone help? Thanks.
Spam after update
By eaglejohn (daniel.benjamins) on March 30, 2023
After updating there are now spam/ad screens displayed on the WordPress admin interface. These can't be removed.
Was simple and effective, now spamming wp-admin
By kentsteve on March 24, 2023
I suppose nothing good lasts forever, this plugin got updated today and I suddenly started getting spam on all my admin pages, when you close it, it pops up again on the next page.
