By default, the platform does not have this option. You can use the following JavaScript code to make the post comment truncated and add "Read More" button
Please follow the steps below:
1. Go to BuddyBoss - Theme Options.
2. Under Custom Codes, enable JavaScript.
3. Append the following:
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('.comment').each(function() {
var fullText = $(this).find('.comment-text').text();
var excerptLength = 200; // Adjust the excerpt length as needed
if (fullText.length > excerptLength) {
var excerpt = fullText.substring(0, excerptLength);
var remainingText = fullText.substring(excerptLength);
$(this).find('.comment-text').html(excerpt + '<span class="comment-excerpt">' + remainingText + '</span>' +
'<a class="read-more-comment" href="#"> Read More</a>');
$(this).find('.comment-excerpt').hide();
$(this).on('click', '.read-more-comment', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var excerptElem = $(this).prev('.comment-excerpt');
excerptElem.toggle();
if (!excerptElem.is(':hidden')) {
$(this).hide();
}
});
}
});
});
4. Click Save Changes.
