ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted January 8, 2019 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted January 8, 2019 In order to show courtesy to our fellow players, please be sure to mark any spoiler-ish content with spoiler tags. To do that: 1. Start the spoiler with [ spoiler ] (without the spaces) 2. End the spoiler section with [/ spoiler ] (also without the spaces) 3. Alternately, highlight spoiler text and click the 'Format' button above the comment box and click "Spoiler" to automatically apply the spoiler tag code to the selected text. Remember: * Do not use a spoiler in the title. * Feel free to say "Spoiler" or "Possible Spoiler" in the title if you wish to do so. * If you're linking to potentially spoiler content off the official forums, please be sure you note that there is a spoiler in that content, or put the link behind a spoiler tag.

Or the quicker alternative of highlighting spoiler text and clicking the 'Format' button above the comment box and clicking "Spoiler" to automatically apply the spoiler tag code to the selected text.

Infusion.7149 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Code for spoiler tags seems to have been changed to use > with a exclamation point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Testing this. (Quote the post to see what I wrote for each one.) Old format, in line spoiler tags --- Old format in line spoiler tags in the middle of a sentance --- Old format above and below spoiler tags --- >! Automated spoiler tag (from the formatting menu) --- >!Typing out the new tag --- New tag >!inside a sentance --- So the old tags do still work, as do the new ones. But you have to tag an entire block of text, you can't hide just part of a sentance/line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
