Spoiler tag function?

[Asayake]

I'm not sure where to place this topic but I was wondering if there's any possibility of implementing a spoiler tag function on the forums. This could be useful in several situations. Now that the Off-Topic subforum is added more threads are being created about movies, games, books, music and other media. I think it would be useful to have a spoiler tag function to be able to reference and discuss specific things in said mediums without spoiling them for people who don't want to be spoiled. This would be very useful for movie reviews, book reviews, etc. so that the content in movies & books can be discussed properly.

If you don't want this function to be available on the entire forum maybe it could be possible to make the function exist only in the Off-Topic and Book Review subforums.

What are your thoughts on this?

That would be very helpful. 

@Leo Gura Can you add this function, please?

That would require coding that I don't know how to do.

Maybe just be kind and write “spoiler”

Write spoiler in the title?

There is a spoiler tag:

Just write: ［spoiler］［/spoiler］

Superman shows up at the end of Black Adam!!!

Wtf! You're a hero. I've never seen anyone use this on here before.

   Actually, maybe we should share tag functions and short cuts in a page for posters here. I think it's great.

@FlyingLotus @Danioover9000 Heya guys.

Was wondering if you could help me with the spoiler function, please. If you're willing, I'm confused where to place the bracketed tags in relation to the text I want to hide.

For example, if I wanted to hide 'I am a pineapple', where would I place the bracketed tags in relation to this text.

［spoiler] I'm a pretty pineapple. [/spoiler］

(I'm using an emoji for the［ ］so that the bbc code doesn't compile.)

 

I'm a pretty pineapple.

If you do a search on BBCode you can get a list of options.  Not all of the features work, but some do like...

［s] Strikethrough!! [/s］  --->  Strikethrough!!

［font=comic sans ms] Comic Sans MS abcdefg!!! [/font］  --->  Comic Sans MS abcdefg!!!

［color=red] RED!!! [/color］  ---> RED!!!

You can combine tags too:

［u]［b]［color=red] RED BOLD underline!!! [/color］［/b] [/u］  --->  RED BOLD underline!!!
