Spoiler cmd...

[smash]

i was looking to see if, we could have a spoiler command
where i could type

spoiler

(something like that) and it would put a box around the text... fills in the box with color and then changes the text to that color.. so it just looks like a box of one solid color... untill u highlight it and u can see the text

heres a example (from animesuki forums)



now once highlighted, u can see the text



it can be a solution to the complains of people getting spoiled in new release section ^_^

[Ketsuron]

sounds good.. but animesuki uses vBulletin.....

[sothis]

if you want to find me a phpbb hack that will do this, ill install it.. but i dont think it exists

[Ketsuron]

however there exist some sort of a mod to hide text...

it uses those tags: [hide] hidden text [/hide]

Links: google, smartor site, oasisforum mods, hackhide mod (french!), abyss spoiler/hide tag info.

maybe that works...

[sothis]

finding another forum with the modification wont help me.. i cant dissect all the forum code (there is a SHITLOAD) by myself and figure it out.

i need a link to the specific modification pack/file/instructions/whatever you want to call it, on a specific site. so, for example, the phpbb.com forums, phpbbhacks, or anywhere else.

[Ketsuron]

maybe this is useful: phpBB_com search results, Spoiler BBcode, phpBB_com View topic - Spoiler BBcode Mod

EDIT: download link doesnt work & sadly, the person who made that mod is no longer involved in phpBB_com
err found another Spoiler Hack (but for phpBB 2.0.4) here.

[sothis]

unfortunate.. if that link had worked, i would have installed it

i looked it up, but this guy isnt the creator of the mod... hes just the guy who posted it... the creator is LifeIsPain

[Ketsuron]

Aw, seems i mixed up smthg with the name, however lets hope the guys at phpbb.com fix that link....

[Ketsuron]

Although the spoiler_bbcode_1_0_0.mod link doesnt work, i've found LiveIsPain code for Spoiler BBcode Mod Version: 1.1.0 (however its not valid (using phpBB MOD's Validator).

Therefore i've edited it (only fixed the header) and you get:

hm, would that hack work on phpbb 2.0.6.......?
