I assume such tags would be added by way of some phpBB mod?

did anything actually change in this update, other than behind the scenes stuff?

as for bbcode tags, iirc you can add them in the admin panel, there is a place to set up whatever tags you want. it just acts as a text replacement, changing the bbcode to html tags.

Custom BBCode

This should work:

BBCode Usage:

Code: Select all

[spoiler]{TEXT}[/spoiler] 
HTML Replacement:

Code: Select all

<div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '<b>Hidden Content: </b><a href=\'#\' onclick=\'return false;\'>hide</a>'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '<b>Hidden Content: </b><a href=\'#\' onclick=\'return false;\'>show</a>'; }" /><b>Hidden Content: </b><a href="#" onClick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">{TEXT}</div></div></div>
Help Line:

Code: Select all

Spoiler/Hide content: [spoiler]ENTER TEXT HERE[/spoiler] 
Can be customized as seen fit, there are also many ways to do it this is just one example. Quick google led me to it: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... start=3120

Custom BB Codes allow tons of options for things like this, I'm more familiar with vBulletin though so I had to look it up for phpBB.

Trivial, but sub-index pages could use a other color for forum titles. Yellow not that readable. :shock: (default forum theme)
