Spoiler Tags (1.5.1)

[Todge]

Could you post a link to your forum please? and make sure theres an area open for guests to post.

[ZombieRob71]

I too am running into the same issue. No matter what label I give to- or manner I use to- name a spoiler it automatically resets the code back to spoiler and /spoiler. It has only been an issue for 2-4 days tops however and previously named spoilers are still intact and properly labeled such as Map/Action/OOC etc.

I'm afraid due to the nature of my organization you'll have to make an account. But, I'll set up a spam board where you can post freely.

Can you please leave a link to your forum, and have an area where guests can post.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, but it gets out of hand with the amount on forums I get asked to join just to help people out, so I usually decline.

If you do not want to allow access to a guests, could you either set up a test forum in exactly the same way you have set up your live forum and allow access to that, or alternatively, PM me the details of an account I can log in with.

I will not need to actually post on your forum, but I will need to see the posting page.

I sent you a PM with the pertinent information Todge. I also understand if it takes longer for you to get around to it and appreciate the assistance.

[Todge]

ZombieRob71, can you please try this version...

[ZombieRob71]

I did and it worked for the most part. The only thing I see happening now is that the pre-chosen Tag/Label for your Spoilers resets itself to the actual word Spoiler after opting to relabel it manually. Otherwise it's like it used to be.

i.e. Set Default Spoiler Tag to OOC - the first post I did, I renamed OOC to Test Post and it worked fine - second spoiler the default OOC tag was replaced by the word Spoiler.

Good to know the original error is fixed..

As for the next issue, that I can't replicate. I see you are using Safari? Is it possible for you to try another browser just to see if it is a Safari specific issue?

[ZombieRob71]

Google Chrome and/or Opera here. No Safari and so far it's running stable, so much thanks

Posting a bug one of my members noticed.

"I just removed an item from a spoilered list. Since it was the last item on the list, I backspaced some to fix the spacing between that group and the next. Then I had the thought 'huh. I bet doing that backspaced over the spoiler close tag. Let's see what happened.' I let it save the edit, and everything BEFORE that list was gone except for an image at the top. I hit 'back,' and going back to the edit screen has the stuff still there, even though if you switch to BBCode tab, that all disappears again.

So apparently backing over the /spoiler in preview mode for some strange reason deletes the spoiler tags for that section except for {whatever is in these brackets}, and gets rid of all the text that came BEFORE it."

I'm afraid there's not a great deal I can do about that.

The [spoiler][/spoiler] tags are a built-in feature of ProBoards, this plugin uses that feature and attempts to make it more useable. One of the things the plugin does is make the spoilers viewable within the Preview side of the editor. try creating a spoiler here within the BBCode side, then switch to the Preview side and all you'll see is the text, nothing to show you that you have a spoiler there. As such the plugin doesn't have control over the opening or the closing tags within the Preview editor.

All I can suggest is that when you make changes to spoilers that you use the BBCode editor so that you can see what you are doing.

Sorry.

Todge - was wondering if image in spoiler titles is a feature yet?

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;

This for some reason, does not work for me.
Still looks just the same as it does without the plugin.

This placed in the stylesheet works when manually entering the spoiler code

.spoiler_header>a{color:#000000;font:12px Verdana,Arial;background-color:#dadada;background-image:url('http://images.proboards.com/v5/gradients/light.png');background-repeat:repeat-x;background-position:center center;border:1px solid #a7a7a7;border-radius:5px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px;min-height:20px;line-height:20px !important;padding:2px 4px;display:inline-block;vertical-align:middle;cursor:pointer;white-space:nowrap;}
.spoiler_header>a:hover{color:#333333;font:12px Verdana,Arial;text-decoration:none;background:#e7e7e7 url('http://images.proboards.com/v5/gradients/top-light-40-trans.png') center repeat-x;border:1px solid #a7a7a7;}

T.C.
That worked. However, I have noticed, when click to do the spoiler, and add own title, the title you do does not show. It just shows SPOILER.

I have tried moving the plugin to various number on list, but nothing changes that.

Also, how would I add a line break between the title and the body? It's rather close....lol
