Spoiler function not working in forums :/

+DS_DV+

Hello netgate / forum Team,

i tend to write too much background information so id like to use spoilers to not push walls of text into peoplse faces ^^

but sadly the spoiler button is not working reliably :(

examples:

Oh let me jump on this one ;)

this is a test of spoiler text

Do you have maybe text messing with the tag that is used? Are you maybe not actually clicking the button? You should see it place the tags

||this is a test of spoiler text||

edit: I fixed your first example of it not working.. Guess you need a line between normal text before you add the spoiler tag, I just inserted a line between background and where you text was and not its behind spoiler

its funny that if i quote my own op from this thread it works as spoiler o.O

@DS_DV for example I just fixed your 2nd example - by adding a line between your normal text and what you wanted as spoiler

+DS_DV+

@johnpoz that strange o.o
so quoting also fixes it than

@DS_DV I believe its just the you can't have text directly above it, maybe directly below it as well.. Just make sure you have a line between what you want to spoil and your other text.
