Turns out you just need to html your details section. :slightly_smiling_face:

I can’t blur/spoiler it though. :thinking:

Knew you’d have the answer.
Thank you - I will try a little editing in my earlier post…

Of course… See, I knew once you started searching you’d find cat shit! I’m afraid it’s the nature of a sandpit :rofl:

I am interested in the work in progress buried under the cat shit but I just don’t really understand it!


Fabulous - works! :+1:
Thank you :blush:
Will have to remember to keep html and Markdown separate.

Can you blur anything on the forum with the html coding rather than Markdown? I thought the html relies on the forum understanding color (to make it transparent) and text shadow commands and I don’t think it does. I have never got the color command to work to change text or background colour at any rate.

What coding are you using?

That was when the Advanced Search function wasn’t working, and I had to write them myself. Luckily it’s back now, as I’m not sure a guide would have made much sense. :slightly_smiling_face:

The markdown [spoiler] tags work, but not the html ones. I can’t wrap a YouTube in the markdown ones though. It only blurs a hyperlink, not the video.

But as you say [spoiler] isn’t an html command and in the same way you can put links in the [details] you can still put the links in blur however in order to show the video I think you need to have the whole lot encased in html rather than mixing.

For blurring in html I think you need something along the lines of this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html> 
  <head> 
    <title>Title of the document</title> 
    <style> #blur { 
    font-size: 40px; 
    color: transparent; 
    text-shadow: 0 0 8px #000; } 
    </style> 
  </head> 
  <body> 
    <div id="blur">Blurry Text</div> 
  </body> 
</html>

Though given, even if this did work on the forum, it just works by making the text transparent while showing the shadow it couldn’t work for an inset video… there must be a way as I’m pretty sure html can do everything Markdown can but I don’t know it :woman_shrugging:t2:

Realise this has become a rather one to one chat… if anyone else wants to chime in on how to blur videos please do!

In the meantime, thank you @Ian_Chimp you have solved my hidden shit problem. I think blurring it is probably more a dirty protest than an unfortunate find in a sandbox so not actually applicable :yum:

I haven’t found any more about html spoilers, but I have stumbled across a way of making Hide Details start ‘unhidden’…

(I replied in here to not drag the game off topic :slightly_smiling_face:)

That’s good that that’s working. :+1: I didn’t get any, but I think that’s because I’m the ‘author’ of that topic, so am immune. :slightly_smiling_face:

To be honest, I don’t know what the Game etiquette is now? On the old set-up with 20 posts to a page too much ping-ponging back and forth monopolised the thread, and I think it stopped more people from joining in. But this new place has better navigation, and a ‘remember my place’ function, so it might be able to absorb it better?

I think the 'wrong answer puffed our exchange out a bit, but I do normally ease off to let other people play. :slightly_smiling_face:

Just trying something

My favorite color is blue red.

Are you getting a blue and a red highlight/text colour rather than pink and green highlight @Orgasm_Chaser ?

I think what browser you’re using affects how those <del> and <ins> commands work which is annoying as I need the green highlight for something.

I looked at some html codes online

The green Highlight is underline
The red Highlight is strikethrough

Or should be …

:thinking: I did them with the inserted text and deleated text in documents commands, would be really useful to know if anyone is not seeing them as pink and green highlights as some browsers I think display them differently.

I see them as red/pink and green.

<del>Red</del>
Red

<ins>Green</ins>
Green

They’re used in the edit histories to show inserted/deleted text. I have yet to come up with a good reason to use them. :slightly_smiling_face: Maybe to highlight edits?

Yes, that’s what I thought but I think, and I’m not at all certain about this, that some browsers will display the <del> text as a strikethrough rather than red/pink and the <ins> as underlined which I think must be the example where @Orgasm_Chaser got her html from? Is that right, @Orgasm_Chaser ?

I have one but not posted yet :+1:

I wonder if that is shown in their edit history too?

This wiki is still open so anyone can still check the edit history. :+1: How does the inserted/deleted stuff show up @Orgasm_Chaser?

Yes correct @Peitho and yes @Ian_Chimp it does shows red for delete green for insert

I thought I’d try it as it’s a different way Ian showed us. I wondered it it worked the same
