Spoiler Tags (1.5.1)

[mrkek]

This doesn't work with the proboards app. It just displays the spoiler with the tags around it, clear as day for all to read.

Please fix this, as it's pretty useless if you can read the spoiler via probards app, as most are using this to access boards these days.

This has a massive hole in it.

It doesn't work in the proboards app, and the spoiler can be seen clear as day.

Last I heard, NO plugin work in the Proboards App, it bypasses quite a bit in order to streamline

That's a problem then. Makes the spoiler plugin absolutely useless. The nature of this is to stop people reading something unless they want to. They don't have the choice via the app, so in essence, the plugin is just useless.

Sounds to me like you have some kind of axe to grind here but disparaging the plugin because it doesn't work in a venue it was never meant to is like complaining that your brand new car sucks because you can't use it to follow migrating whales

[mrkek]

Read the other thread mate, and no it's not common knowledge that plugins are not supported via the app.

You sounds you don't like people reporting any problems. Unless you can fix it, move on, I have!

Hey Todge,

Great plugin.

But I seem to have a small problem with the input window.
It currently opens automatically whenever people make a new post, or reply.
It's a pretty minor problem, but it can be quite annoying.

Could you post a link to your forum please, and if possible, have a board where guests can post.

Thank you

Thanks a ton for this! I would suggest making the text that opens the spoiler be an actual button, with an outline and all that. Or maybe I'm just being ignorant and missing a totally obvious way to do this.

I would love for this to happen too. Unless there is a way to do this via CSS. I am a total noob at it and still learning all the tricks. Unless I missed a post that was trying to do something like this. XD

The other forum I used to go to had a button for the spoiler (as of now it's just text, which can easily be overlooked if the poster doesn't state it as spoiler) and the body of the spoiler had a frame around it and given enough space from the spoiler title.

You can indeed do what you're asking with the CSS styling in the plugin..

Try this..

Put this in the Title Styling box..

background: #dadada url('http://images.proboards.com/v5/gradients/light.png') center center;
padding: 4px;
border: 1px solid #a7a7a7;
border-radius: 5px;
display: inline-block;

and this in the Spoiler Styling box..

padding: 5px 10px 5px 5px;
background-color: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-radius: 5px;
margin: 5px 25px;

That was pretty much the most amazing thing. Thank you.

No worries..

    I assumed that my plugin question belonged on this board.
    What is a spoiler and spoiler tag? What is a spoiler and a spoiler tag's for?
    I really do not know about spoilers.

SPOILER: Click to show

This is a spoiler

Clicking on the above link will open the hidden content, so you don't have to view it unless you want to.

Originally it was to hide spoilers for movies etc., so you could read a thread about a film you've not seen without reading about key elements of the movie that would spoil it for you, but it can be used for anything where you don't want certain content displayed by default in a post, be it a punchline to a joke, or a 'spoiler maze'.

What this plugin does is revamp the PB spoiler so you can have your own titles and styling.

Hey Todge, is it possible to have the spoiler UBBC button thing only visible to staff? I'd like everyone to see the spoilers but only insert able by staff if possible

Try putting this in your Global Header..

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if(proboards.data('user').is_staff != 1)
{
document.write('<style>.button-spoiler{ display: none !important; }</style>');
}
// -->
</script>

Perfect, thanks Todge!
