It's really finicky, though, so I usually type it in manually rather than use the button. If you write something, highlight it, and then click that button, then you'll put it in a spoiler/collapsible box. Putting a name in the field that pops up will give it a name.

Since the text field in New Post tends to automatically generate these things as they'd be seen in the post itself, it's hard to tell since it doesn't actually generate the box and instead invisibly "wraps" the section in it. The only way to see where it starts is if you give it a name, which is displayed in a different font. I have the same issue with pictures and youtube inserts when I insert it through the button or preview and thus turn my written BBcode into actual pictures and video.

Yup, hella finnicky. I recommend just typing out the BBcode. That way you can visibly see what you're wrapping in the box.

If you have issues I suggest hitting the icon for "View Source" instead and then using the Preview message to see how the coding works. (The icon next to the printer"

And suddenly the view source saves me. Thank you very much all. Sorry for being so amateur on the forums!


RE: How the HECK - Kage - 12-19-2014

No worries! I hated how the quotes and such were being viewed while I typed out responses. Some webpages are similar, where they allow you to work with the code instead of the actual product (if that makes sense)

I think we've learned two important things here.

One: How spoiler BBCode works
Two: Tacos are yummy.
