My first hack - Invisible Spoilers

To make a really invisible Spoiler, just open admin/functions.php

find:

global $regexcreated,$searcharray,$replacearray,$phpversionnum

directly after that, insert the following:

,$counter

and be carefull, that you leave the ; at the end.
Then find:

 $bbcode = preg_replace("/(\[)(img)(])(\r\n)*([^\"]*)(\[\/img\])/siU", "<a href=\"\\5\" target=\"_blank\">\\5</a>", $bbcode);

    $bbcode=str_replace("\\'", "'", $bbcode);

directly after that, insert the following:

if($counter%2==0) {
      
      $bbcode = preg_replace("/(\[)(sp)(])(\r\n)*([^\"]*)(\[\/sp\])/siU", "<normalfont>Spoiler:<br></normalfont><br><font color=\"#13486D\">\\5</font>", $bbcode);
    }
    else {
    $bbcode = preg_replace("/(\[)(sp)(])(\r\n)*([^\"]*)(\[\/sp\])/siU", "<normalfont>Spoiler:<br></normalfont><br><font color=\"#1C5780\">\\5</font>", $bbcode);
}
    $bbcode=str_replace("\\'", "'", $bbcode);

You are done. Save and upload the file.
Add the Spoiler with [sp]Spoiler[/sp] in your posts.

You can write invisible text with this, to make Spoilers that you can only see, if you mark the text.
It just writes the text in the same color than the background color.
have a look at the images:
invisible
visible

First Bugfix just after one day
Found out, that if you try to place other vbcode within the spoiler, it doesn`t work anymore.
This is how to fix it:

if($counter%2==0) {
      
      $bbcode = preg_replace("/(\[)(sp)(])(\r\n)*(.*)(\[\/sp\])/siU", "<normalfont>Spoiler:</normalfont><br><font color=\"#13486D\">\\5</font>", $bbcode);
    }
    else {
    $bbcode = preg_replace("/(\[)(sp)(])(\r\n)*(.*)(\[\/sp\])/siU", "<normalfont>Spoiler:</normalfont><br><font color=\"#1C5780\">\\5</font>", $bbcode);
}

Now you can use other codes and smilies within the Spoiler, but they will be displayed normaly. The spoiler text stays invisible.

Instead of the colors

<font color=\"#13486D\">
and
<font color=\"#1C5780\">

use

{ firstaltcolor }
and 
{ secondaltcolor } without the spaces.

I've got a [spoiler] tag on my board. No hack required, really.

How did you give the spoiler text the same color, as the background color in all styles?
I have styles with black, gray and orange background colors and if I make the spoiler text black it is easy to read in the other styles with the gray and orange background color.
Mine works for all styles and gets the colors right, so that it is really invisible in all the styles.

[TWTCommish]

It's simple: you stick it in a box with it's own BG color. Watch (first post):

I've tried to implement a JS to highlight it automatically, but keep on running into problems.

[T?Pau]

Saw it
But what about different styles? Does it always look the same, or is the color changed in different styles?

[TWTCommish]

Nope, looks the same. I don't use different styles anyway...but even if I did, the gray-on-gray would still work alright.
