Moo Collapsing Archives

Screenshots

This is a relatively simple plugin that uses Javascript based on MooTools framework to make the Archive links in the sidebar collapsable by year and/or month. Fork of Rob Felty’s Collapsing Archives. Multiple languages content is now fully supported through compatibility with qTranslate and WPML Multilingual CMS Plugin Homepage: http://www.3dolab.net/en/mootools-collapsing-categories-and-archives Running Demo banner image by Karora icon by Jdforrester What’s new? See the CHANGELOG for more information Options and configuration $defaults=array( 'noTitle' => '', 'inExcludeCat' => 'exclude', 'inExcludeCats' => '', 'inExcludeYear' => 'exclude', 'inExcludeYears' => '', 'sort' => 'DESC', 'showPages' => false, 'linkToArch' => true, 'showYearCount' => true, 'expandCurrentYear' => true, 'expandMonths' => true, 'expandYears' => true, 'expandCurrentMonth' => true, 'showMonthCount' => true, 'showPostTitle' => true, 'expand' => '0', 'showPostDate' => false, 'postDateFormat' => 'm/d', 'animate' => 0, 'postTitleLength' => '', 'debug' => '0', ); noTitle If your posts don’t have title, specify a string to show in place of the title inExcludeCat Whether to include or exclude certain categories ‘exclude’ (default) ‘include’ inExcludeCats The categories which should be included or excluded inExcludeYear Whether to include or exclude certain years ‘exclude’ (default) ‘include’ inExcludeYears The years which should be included or excluded showPages Whether or not to include pages as well as posts. Default if false showYearCount When true, the number of posts in the year will be shown in parentheses showMonthCount When true, the number of posts in the month will be shown in parentheses linkToArch 1 (true), clicking on a the month or year will link to the archive (default) 0 (false), clicking on a month or year expands and collapses sort Whether posts should be sorted in chronological or reverse chronological order. Possible values: ‘DESC’ reverse chronological order (default) ‘ASC’ chronological order expand The symbols to be used to mark expanding and collapsing. Possible values: ‘0’ Triangles (default) ‘1’ + – ‘2’ [+] [-] ‘3’ images (you can upload your own if you wish) ‘4’ custom symbols customExpand If you have selected ‘4’ for the expand option, this character will be used to mark expandable link categories customCollapse If you have selected ‘4’ for the expand option, this character will be used to mark collapsible link categories expandYears 1 (true): Years collapse and expand to show months (default) 0 (false): Only links to yearly archives are shown expandMonths 1 (true): Months collapse and expand to show posts (default) 0 (false): Only links to yearly and monthly archives are shown expandCurrentMonth When true, the current month will be expanded by default expandCurrentYear When true, the current year will be expanded by default showPostTitle 1 (true): The title of each post is shown (default) showPostDate 1 (true): Show the date of each post postDateFormat The format in which the date should be shown (default: ‘m/d’) postTitleLength Truncate post titles to this number of characters (default: 0 = don’t truncate) animate When set to true, collapsing and expanding will be animated debug When set to true, extra debugging information will be displayed in the underlying code of your page (but not visible from the browser). Use this option if you are having problems Examples collapsArch('animate=1&sort=ASC&expand=3,inExcludeCats=general,uncategorized') This will produce a list with: * animation on * shown in chronological order * using images to mark collapsing and expanding * exclude posts from the categories general and uncategorized Fallback This plugin relies on Javascript, but does degrade gracefully if it is not present/enabled to show all of the archive links as usual.
