Spoilers

[Claire]

For those who haven't yet realised, we've temporarily postponed the use of spoilers (the buttons which when clicked produce a pop-up). The reason for this is the ability to produce multiple pop-ups within one spoiler tag, and so this may be abused. We are currently looking for a modified spoiler hack which will stop this problem.

Thanks for your patience ^^

Theres the hidden content hack.

Well,not really,verb.A member found out how it could be combined with something,to link to a page of their choice.So,it could be abused.

billybob... he was mentioning another hack. -_-;;;


*helped reveal the flaw* :P *gets hated on*

 

[Claire]

Verb, do you mean the one where you have to highlight to view the text in the pop-up? I think many people would find that annoying ^^;

 

[Carlito-san]

Yes,thats one.Sorry JK.And I don't like that one.I use it at a Phpbb forum.It's very annoying.

 

[Scizor V]

Lol no theres one where you click and it reveals the content its used as a spoiler tag on other forums.

 

[Claire]

Oh, you're refering to the show/hide button spoiler tag. That may be an option, its just a shame about its bulky size ^^;

(I'd suggested that one to the other admins earlier -we may have to use it if another one cant be found. The other options that i found were just slight modification codes which may not help enough)

 

[Scizor V]

Yeah, I know I've used vBulletin in the past and I still help out my friends forums (with the code / layouts / etc...) thats why I know a little more on it.

Didya know that the "Edit" note for you is in that unreadable font?

Anyways...

I gave Steve the show/hide button one, but it didn't work.

So?Do you really have to post this here?

On topic,is the show-and-hide the black 1 where you put your mouse over it/highlight it and the words appear?

 

[Scizor V]

Not the one Im talking about the one Im talking about is like some-what like dynamic drives hidden content (but not exactly) theres also something like mouse over Pop-it menus

 

[Claire]

JK, i havent done anything to my font, so its the standard text etc.

Hmm, im not sure if we're talking about the same one then Verb -could you PM steve with a link to the hack you're referring to?

 

[Spectrum]

I think he means the one where you click the arrow and it pops down. Kinda like the vBulletin-style popup menus (Quick Links, Thread Tools, etc.).

 

[Carlito-san]

Oh,ok.I would like that one.

And the hack that Mina mentioned sounds quite interesting.

 

[Claire]

On that layout the font must carry on past the profile or something, but i wont change it -you can see the time and DF which is all that matters :P

So rather than a hide/show, its an arrow with more options as to how you want to view the spoiler?

 

[aRedMoon]

A cool spoiler would be something like the Livejournal Cut... where it would make a link "Show Spoiler" or whatever, and then it'd open the full post up in a new window. Just that single post thing... eh.

*wonders if it'd be possible*

 

[Kairi]

I don't like new window single posts personally. @_@; I'd prefer the highlight one, or the one where you click a button and it inserts the text into the post.
