I’m using a WYSIWYG field to submit reviews on my site.
I need to be able to have a [spoiler] tag system just like on Discourse: It should hide text until clicked, like this.
I can do the frontend code myself once the code is in there, but one thing I’m struggling to do is to add a button on the WYSIWYG editor that wraps selected text in the correct tags?
I am using a standard WordPress WYSISYG, e.g.:
The filter gform_rich_text_editor_buttons can be used to alter the buttons shown there.
Thanks, but this isn’t an existing button, how can I add a brand new button with new (but very simple) functionality? It should work just like a <b> button but instead output [spoiler]
Hey Shaun,
You’d need to write your own TinyMCE v3 plugin that adds support for what you want to do. The Advanced Editor Tools plugin is a practical example of how you can load custom plugins into the standard WordPress WYSIWYG editor (which includes Gravity Forms). I also found this very old plugin that works similar to what you described (but for bbPress). Maybe you can adapt the code from both plugins to suit.
Hi Shaun,
2 links here that I think will help:
Combine the two and I’m sure you’re on to a winner.
All the best.
