Adding "Read More" to Image Captions

I am trying to add a read more, expandable text field to our images using this method. I'm currently using a gallery, which does not allow HTML within the caption. As you can see, we have a lot of text.

Is there a way to enable HTML inside these containers? Is there another way to create an expandable field of text within image captions?

Thank you!

Hi,

Will you use Personal or Business Plan?

@tuanphan Business. 

I would add the html in a code block underneath each image, rather than adding the text as a caption. 

@rebeccagracedesigns thanks for the idea but when I do this, on mobile the images all come first, then the text fields. I want the text fields to stay beneath each image, so it needs to be attached to the image.

Any other thoughts?

I shared a working snippet using jQuery Readmore.js, you can take reference there

This has to do with how you have added the blocks in the section. Drag all your images to be next to each other. Then make sure to drag the html blocks underneath each photo. If you drag all the html block next to each other, it will look lined up but they won't be in the right order on mobile.
