Extension summary

Do you also hate to click on those "See more" links in Asana, just to see the last sentence of a longer comment? Or did you also miss an important comment in a longer comment thread in an Asana Task?

This extension solves this problem my automatically clicking on those links whenever you open a task with many comments or when a comment is longer than 300 characters.

Note: The extension currently doesn't work in Asana's Inbox view.

User reviews

This expander tool used to work great. Within the past 2 months, the extension periodically stops working even though I do regular updates of the add-on. I deleted the add-on about a week ago and re-added it. Worked great for. week, but now I am back to the add-on not working. Am I doing something incorrectly here?

Great plugin. I like to see full comment without button "More" Thank you

Tremendous. It does exactly what it says. One of my pet peeves about Asana is that long threads of comments don’t immediately display when you open a thread (you have to keep clicking “earlier comments”) and individual comments that are lengthy are also truncated (you have to click the “See more” link to expand the comment). No longer! This extension Asana Expander solves all these issues, making Asana much more efficient. Now when I open a card/task in Asana, all comments load in full .. which also makes using Command + F (or Control + F on Windows) to search for a certain word on the page functional again, since no text is hidden behind a link. The only issue I've found: When using Asana's Inbox, the plugin presents some bugs. If your Inbox view has a lot of items in it, Asana may enter what appears to be an infinite redirect loop (perhaps because the plugin is searching for the "absolute last" item in the Inbox feed).
