Do you want to write a review and you’re dying to make a comment to some of the lucky readers who have already read the book? Certainly you don’t want to checkmark the box “hide entire review because of spoilers” – which would hide all your hard work. Still, you don’t want to ruin a delicious surprise for others. Like this one: (view spoiler)[
(hide spoiler)] Ditto for a discussion thread?
To insert a “view spoiler” into your text type in the word spoiler between a greater-than sign and a less-than sign < > and then type your desired hidden text. When finished, type in the word /spoiler between the greater-than and less-than signs < > (note: now there is a forward-slash in front of the word).
Always do a preview to see what will show and what won't.
Explained a second way: Type the following that is in bold without the asterisks * present.
<*spoiler*>This is the text that will be hidden.<*/spoiler*>
Again, just don't put the * symbols between the greater than and less than signs.
If all else fails, look at the title of this topic and type your hidden text between the ellipsis (three dots...)
