Installed, working, thanks.
But I could not get idea where we can use it?
Hiding text with a show button,
I think, it may be used to show the answer of a question after guess?

Or just a cool bb code that your members can have fun with.

What is this button.?

Isn't there supposed to be a image/button like the preview that says "Show" ?

*edit*
Nvm that is the button for when you're making a post.
I used this one..

Error in mobile version vb 4.2 can't show the spoiler content / can't unhide...

yeah, You can just use your own pic. I just uploaded that one as I was in a rush

Hmm, I haven't tried it in the mobile version yet as I can't call my phone a phone but I will look into this. Thank you for pointing this out.

works like a charm, thanks mate :)

No problem :)

I tried this code, but it seems there is something not correct. Everything is ok except that the button "show" when clicked nothing shows up. I mean spoiler is used to hide/show some text, right! so why this code doesn't do this job then!! or maybe I'm missing something here. please correct me if I'm wrong.

By the way, I did all exact steps many times, but still the hide/show function doesn't work...

any idea?

This is something strange I just noticed. I placed the code in a plain html page to test it, and surprisingly it works fine without any issues. However, when I apply the same code to my vb bbcode, the show/hide button doesn't function...........

what do you think, mates?

hmm, I haven't experienced any issues with the code myself so I am just trying to think of why it wouldn't be working.

Hi Fatal Hazard,

Thanks for the efforts on this mod. This is just a quick feedback about what's going on. I have two sites with different forums, so one in English and other one is non-English so the English one is fine with this mod and works great. However, the "Arabic" one is not functioning at the property "show/hide".... possibly there is something related to the language !!!

any idea?

Thanks in advance

Hi, thanks for pointing this out. This may sound a bit weird but first have you tried editing the show and spoiler text in English to Arabic? This may be worth a try in the first instance.
If you haven't already, find: and edit the into Arabic and into Arabic.

Thanks @Fatal Hazard, for the infor. However, after many tries it didn't work. possibly there is something not correct. I tried also adding other bbcodes like Blink and didn't work on the Arabic forum. I will create a new version of Arabic version and add the Spoiler BBcode and see how things go. I will update the issue with the results.

Thanks.

Hi again, it is me....

I just installed new Arabic version with the same code, and guess what! it works great. I believe there is something wrong with my current forum so I guess I need to replace it. Thanks the code works perfect.

Cheers

Thanks, Truly Appreciated

Great to hear!!!! :)

when installed this spoiler why in the mobile not working ??
any suggestion ?

works well, but only with text, the images can't be hidden! dont work with images :(

Installed, works awesome, much better than those spoiler scripts. 5 star vote.

It should work just fine with images, well it is for me. You are wrapping the image tags within the spoiler tags right?

working great with my vb4.2.1 (text and image)
marked as installed
Thanks so much

Great to hear :)


It should also work with videos :)

How can I make it so the spoiler is viewable to members only?

Does anyone have a solution to this?

not working in mobile style ..

Thank you for pointing this out however there is nothing I can do to fix this, it is an incompatibility with the software developer's mobile style. Not an issue with the code itself.

Try this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=297555

It does not work on mobile style, can you do something?
And one question, do you know how to do if you want to make appear the spoiler in the user activity box?

um pretty sure this is the one i installed, lol, but just to verify it works for vb5.0.5 and also no issues with mobile browsing(didnt setup app yet)

im sure its beyond a simple bbcode add, but ideally id like to be able to put usergroup permissions on these tags

Thanks for posting this mod, works great on VB4.

This is something that I do intend to create when I find the free time :)

Thank you! Finally a spoiler BBcode that functions properly on install.

work great on my site since 2013 til today
