My very first attempt at a plugin so where else to start other than BB code (yet another one, right)?

In essence, everything this plugin does, can be done via a template edit and by creating 2 custom BB codes.

I created this little plugin based on some javascript by Andy Langton (http://andylangton.co.uk/articles/javascript/jquery-show-hide-multiple-elements/) which, maybe not very efficiently, prevents problems when multiple spoilers are on one page. This is significant because many of the other jQuery spoilers I have tried could only handle one per page as a second or more would just mean no working spoilers at all. I have seen an alternate version using $(this.hash) in far less lines but I only tried this one and it worked which was good enough for me.

Installation Note: only tested on 4.1.1 but it should work on 4.x
1) Upload the file in the upload folder to your forum root (clientscript/ksspoiler.js).
2) Import the product (product-ksjqueryspoiler.xml)

The plugin adds two scripts (mine and jquery) to headinclude_css and manually inserts two custom BB codes called jspoiler. One version uses {option} and the other does not to allow for a little flexibility. I highly suggest that you customize the name and titles of the BB codes to your liking. All this is meant to do is to a utomate a couple easy steps (mainly because I haven't been able to learn any more than that ._. sorry!)

Uninstall
However, due to my lack of knowledge, the only way to fully uninstall the plugin is to uninstall the plugin and then manually deleting the custom BB code.

How does this deal with the sidebar previews that often reveal BBCode?

Unfortunately, as far as I know, BB code just doesn't work with the forum side bar. I personally don't use it right now (and I don't really use the forums atm. I'm just trying to use vB in some way bit by bit since I paid for it and I only really need the CMS side where even Wordpress would be infinitely better). However, that aside, I haven't come across any type of fixes and my best guess is that a file edit will be required.
