Collapsable Text within threads?

Hello! 

First off, I'd like to simply say that the link posted for help is under maintenance. Hopefully, this won't deter you from helping me out. I am currently working on setting up my forum and do not wish it to be open for anyone yet.

With that said, let's hope I can explain this question properly.


I was wondering if when a user, such as myself goes to post within a thread, if I can collapse some text within a post. As an example, I have a Role-Play site in progress. If I wanted to collapse the different Character templates for them to be minimized and/or maximized, is this possible? I'm not talking side bars or peekaboo bars. I'm talking in a thread. Like the one I'm posting in now. I was wondering if there was some code for that?


Thanks Kindly!

Yup. Use this: [ spoiler ] content here [ /spoiler ]

(Without the spaces of course)

Thank you so much! You saved the day.  Is there a way to change what it says when it's collapsed or no?

This might be something:

Other then this, I don't know of a way, sorry.

Nope, you solved my issue. Thank you again for all your help.

Okay, so I've been trying to use this spoiler thing and it doesn't work right. I try to edit what I put in the code and it 'trips' it, for lack of a better term. If I name it "The worlds biggest Spoiler" It resets it to "Spoiler" No matter what I do, it keeps doing this. Help!

This is an issue with the plugin?

[wanderingjedi]

It is? Or are you asking me? I'm not sure if it is, but I keep looking for another way to do it with no avail.

If it's a problem with the plugin, then you should post in the Support thread for that plugin. It'd be in the sub-board here on Support called Plugin Library. =)
