Unable to Show Hidden text

Post by John Gray »

In thread https://eileenslounge.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=31779, clicking on any of the SHOW buttons gives me nothing.
Is it just me? :sad:

PS "And another thing...", how does 'post=' work?

I'm afraid it's worse, my friend. Following your link and I'm logged out ...

At the moment it seems PostIDs are not shown in threads, as they did, but you can see them in quotes if you reply (a bit less useful). Using your post's ID here.

We'll have to investigate the 'SHOW' feature...

To get the post number (to use in the Post Tags), simply click on the title of the reply and view it in the address bar.

We'll need to determine if the post number can be shown in this version of the software.

Things like showing the post number above the user avatar aren't easy to implement in the new version. So that will have to wait, unfortunately.
Best wishes,
Hans

This upgrade to the lounge software was extremely difficult because of all the custom modifications that we had made previously. We don't want to get into a situation where we can't install security updates again, so we'll be much more circumspect about what modifications we make.

The spoiler tags work once again, but they look different:

[spoiler]This is hidden text[/spoiler] produces:

Spoiler
This is hidden text

And [spoiler=Check this out]This is hidden text[/spoiler] produces

Check this out
This is hidden text
Best wishes,
Hans

I notice that we have got a slightly different version of spoiler again, that works exactly the same as before; i.e. a new icon and "look" (as was also discussed & tested in a small thread in the Test forum at the time of Hans' post above).
