How to post spoilers?

[TheJLeeTeam 914]

I'm wondering how I can post spoilers. Like post a hidden message or image because I don't know how to.

I appear to be having the same problem. Why does it say this post needs approval?

Because staff must approve all topics and user responses to questions to keep this as section helpful as possible.

There two ways to hide images and text in a spoiler tag.

 

Method 1.

 

[ spoiler] insert text here. [/spoiler ]

 

Remove the space in the brackets and

 

 

insert text here

 

 

Same with images

Method 2

 

1. click this image in the editor box.   it pulls up the Image Properties dialog box.

 

2. copy your img link in the box. Click ok

 

 

3. This happens. Click on the image displayed in the editor so that it is 'active'.

 

 

4. Next click this image This pulls up the BBCode box

 

5. Select Spoiler from the drop down. You will see the image link and needed code already populated. Click OK

 

 

Below is what it looks like when you submit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can also enter text in the Special BBCode Box to just spoiler text.
