You can check this demo: https://www.gridphp.com/demo/demos/integrations/readmore.php

Code: https://www.gridphp.com/demo/demos/integrations/readmore.phps

To check, put some long text by editing note column.

Any suggest?

$col = array();
$col[“title”] = “Nome”;
$col[“name”] = “name”;
$col[“editoptions”] = array(“size”=>20);
$col[“width”] = “50”;
$col[“editable”] = false;
$col[“sortable”] = false;
$cols_items_gest[] = $col;

I’m unable to get the issue from your code. I think you have not tried using readmore plugin in this code.

To use this plugin, follow these steps referring this code: https://www.gridphp.com/demo/demos/integrations/readmore.phps

  1. Refer line 104-105, add formatter and unformat property to the column you want readmore option
  2. Include readmore.min.js file as on line 126
  3. Use onload event line 33 and JS callback function as on 139-152
  4. Add css onpage, line 133-137 and 158-164

This will give you this result:
