EXPANDING & COLLAPSING OFFTOPIC TAG v3.2
By Dougiefresh -> Link to Mod

Notice
This mod is no longer being supported.  You are strongly encouraged to use Yet Another Spoiler Mod instead...

Introduction
This modification adds a BBCode to the forum that allows the post author to hide a offtopic in the post, which is clickable to display it to the user.

This BBCode takes the form:

Code Select Expand

[nobbc]
[offtopic]{content}[/offtopic]
[offtopic text=Blah]{content}[/offtopic]
[offtopic quote="Blah"]{content}[/offtopic]
[/nobbc]
Note that quotes are required for the quote parameter, but not for the text parameter.  These forms have no issues with other block-level tags inside the offtopic tag.

This BBCode can also take the following form:

Code Select Expand

[nobbc]
[offtopic=Some Text]{content goes here}[/offtopic]
[/nobbc]
Note that, for this form, other block-level bbcode tags are not parsed inside this offtopic tags form.

NEW FOR 2.1:
Version 2.1 introduces two optional parameters for use:
o hide parameter indicates the text to replace the default "hide" string
o show parameter indicates the text to replace the default "show" string.

Admin Settings
This BBCode may be disabled by going into the Admin => Forum => Posts and Topics => Bulletin Board Code and unchecking the bbcodes you don't want to use.  You may also be uninstall this mod in order to disable it.

Compatibility Notes
This mod was tested on SMF 2.0.9, but should work on SMF 2.1 Beta 1, as well as SMF 2.0 and up.  SMF 1.x is not and will not be supported.

Changelog
The changelog has been removed and can be seen at XPtsp.com.

Now that's a useful mod. I can see where this would be used on a lot of boards. Great idea!

Just installed in 2.0.10 with TP.  I've been looking for an off topic tag for awhile, and I was happy to find this.  It seems to work very well!

But I have to be curious about the button itself.  Is it supposed to look like it's been sketched rather than typed, or created graphically?  Screenshot attached, in case you don't see what I see.  I think it might add a more professional touch to have the button look nice, like all the other buttons (at least anti-aliased).  Unless there's some significance to having it look like is was sketched, that I just don't get?

Congrats on the otherwise nice-working mod

Uploaded v1.8 - July 20th, 2015
o Fixed missing BBCode button in editor for SMF 2.1 Beta 1.
o Remade Off-topic bbcode button with different font.



@brynn:  I've attached the new bbcode button image to this post.

Thanks!

I think have error .
after remove the 2.0 and install 2.1 have this

[spoiler]ssssssssss[/spoiler]

[dougiefresh]

   Ummm....  I'm gonna throw out a guess here, but maybe you are using the wrong package?  Maybe you meant to use my Expanding & Collapsing Spoiler Tag mod...?

Anyways, with this mod, try using offtopic instead of spoiler.....

Uploaded v2.2 - November 19th, 2015
o Fixed issue where bbcode button outputted wrong bbcode when pressed.



@villasg:  When I released v2.0 of the changelog, offtopic and spoiler bbcode mods, I copied the code from one mod to another and replaced spoiler with the correct tag.  Somehow, I missed the bbcode tag ones for changelog and offtopic.....  It's fixed now.  Anyways, thanks for the bug report!

[villasg]
