Collapse text in long add-on reviews
See original GitHub issueDescribe the problem and steps to reproduce it:
- Write a really long add-on review
- As a developer of the same add-on, reply to that review with a really long response
What happened?
It looks pretty bad on the detail page:
Full page screenshot
What did you expect to happen?
The text should be collapsed with a Read more link
Anything else we should know?
This also looks pretty bad on the review listing pages.
We should be able to use ShowMoreCard for this.

@biskit1 To make sure you’re not wasting any time Chaya, this is still (unfortunately) reproducible 😓:
Finding the problematic code
I know you still have more assignments to do so I did some digging using the React developer tools for FF and found the code that renders a users’ review:
https://github.com/mozilla/addons-frontend/blob/46153975233548acd64239dad5c5b39ede3e71a8/src/amo/components/AddonReviewCard/index.js#L472-L478
Notice the
reviewprop? It has abodyfield which contains the text a reviewer writes:https://github.com/mozilla/addons-frontend/blob/46153975233548acd64239dad5c5b39ede3e71a8/src/ui/components/UserReview/index.js#L101
Finding a solution
Over in the
ShowMoreCard, it looks like the contents of the card (aka. we want this to be the user review from{body}above) is found here:https://github.com/mozilla/addons-frontend/blob/f71a19331ba96d409ea4d91b0f89a65a383198c9/src/ui/components/ShowMoreCard/index.js#L149-L154
Ok, this is good - I think we have found most of the puzzle pieces to begin swapping out some code 😺
I always like reading what’s in the existing codebase as it gives a ton of hints on what the devs have done. For instance, how in the world would you or I know how to use the
ShowMoreCardcomponent? Well, we can see how it’s being used currently for starters:https://github.com/mozilla/addons-frontend/blob/46153975233548acd64239dad5c5b39ede3e71a8/src/amo/pages/Addon/index.js#L344-L352
I hope this helps to get you going!! ✌🏽
Hi @biskit1 – let me know if you have any questions. I know you’ve already landed a few patches (thanks!) so you probably have things set up.
