Is there any way to have show/hide tags such as
Spoiler
text
, to have a block of text hidden until you click on it?

I'd like something like this for my guide so it doesn't show all sections at once. That way the person can choose to show only the section they're working on.
Does this exist on these forums?
If not, can the site admin consider adding it?
Also, is there a way to "hack" this in via the [ HTML ] tags?
Not at the moment. Something like this maybe in vB4 when we upgrade.
Spoiler tags seems a bit hacky, the admin's might consider if there is something a bit more user friendly or fit for purpose.
Collapsing information seems the wrong way to do it. I think a navigation (contents page) that allows quick thread navigation without opening in a new window / tab would be better.

Doh, that's too bad.
I'm not sure what you mean by a contents page? Splitting up one post into several, may make things a bit more hectic?

Like the contents page on Media Wiki pages : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development
In my experience, so long as the posts are sequential and the OP has the ingenuity to disable their sig until the last post, it's not too bad.
Dave
Ah I see.
What if you only have the first post in a thread?
It's too late for me

Post less? (j/k)
I was thinking about linking inside a thread. HTML allows Anchor / Name tags to do this. A way of building a contents page could be handy.
So the contents could have:
Post 1
- Part 1
- Part 2
Post 2
-Part 3
etc. etc.
It might just be a dream though : http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?p=2031310

I also think that this would be a good idea. For example, a rom developer could hide the changelog, todo list, Q&A, etc leaving the first post much less cluttered and simpler to navigate, but still displaying the same ammount of information. I know how to use anchors and links with HTML, but I don't really know if most people know all the code, and it would be more complicated. For example, just a single link to an anchor named banana would be Link to banana. It would be much simpler to just use a
Spoiler
tag.

Yes, another excellent idea!
A collapsible tag could be useful in so many situations!
Here's another possible use: signatures. Almost everyone has a list of the phones they have, current rom, radio, spl, recovery, mods, themes, etc. We could literally change 5-10 lines of text to a single "show" button on every single post on every forum. I have no idea how much work it would take to implement this, but it would really be a kickass idea.
Hi everyone,
i know this is a pretty old topic, but i wanted to know if it is meanwhile possible to build a "spoiler"?
i wanted to post a logcat-log but its like 100+ strings long so it would be pretty nice to make this information collapsable to keep threads clear.
thanks in advance

You could use a
Code:
box.
Sorry for also resurrecting an old thread but I too would love a collapsible tag.
As with the OP, I think it would be a real boon to writing guides.
I have a multi-part guide I'm working on/maintaining for the Arc but for each part of it, I'd love to be able to have it split into independently-expandable sections, it would make it so much easier to divide it up clearly and to hide necessary but lesser-used information.
spoiler tag in the forum
any progress on a collapsible tag?

at the end of 2011 ...
if it would work, you would not see this msg, unless you click on it

It is already, especially in some dev threads where people post full logcats
Also, in one thread, I had posted a complete diff between two kernel versions, so implementation if this in the app would also be awesome(although you'll have to talk to tapatalk guys, hope they understand)

Nothing is True.. Everything is Permitted©
With the huge response to Google + (Google Plus).... I'm wondering can the site implement the +1 button on pages? We have a "Tweet this thread" button. A Facebook "Like" button...but no +1
Whaddayasay admin?
something else to bog the threads down with???
Apparently the facebook like buttons are killing the thread load times for some people.

Well, maybe they should be removed then...lol! How would it bog down the threads? But do people use them is the question? And if they do, that's a good thing...right?
This site is big on "Searching"... adding +1 would make things easier to find from Google (I think)
Where is XDA Developers on Google Plus?
I have requested this as well. I'm sure it will be added soon. They just have to work on the few remaining issues with the FB button.
@nrfitchett4 The slowness experienced by some with the button has been resolved.

Given the Android angle I'd hope to see +1/circle support as soon as possible, if only to be fair on the twitter/fb/google spread.
I agree with the idea of +1-ing the google search result too though.

If you do search in Google+ you can find "XDA Developers". By Tuesday morning there be probably 3000 people in there.
I've heard some say the mobile app will not find it. You have to use the desktop browser.
+1 button would definitely be helpful..
The previous thread was closed by the moderator. I contacted him but he didn't answer. Though this isn't my work, i uploaded it to google docs. I hope it is reachable to everyone. If it isn't please suggest an other way. Download the attachments zip if you can see it. I repeat this has nothing to do with btunes, it has coverflow and it works pretty well though it can be more stable. Hope someone can improve it...

Why not just post some screenshots and attach the APK to the forum like everybody else?
Did you seek permission from the developer of this mystery APK before your attempts to post it? If not, that's also a rules violation.

Well he sent me the apk via email, its not a playstore app like aPod, it's just the JoyOS rom music app that was pulled out from the rom... the developer is basically JoyOS team..

So now that everyting is cleared i want to tell some people to stop acting like they own the forum. We are not all developers and we don't want to be. I think the purpose of this forum is sharing information. We don't want all to mislead, take advantage of you or steal your work. Stop being so suspicious
eurgh, if I wanted an iPhone, I'd shoot myself.

You're sharing something you don't have permission to share, since you didn't even know where it came from. This is against the rules.
One of the people you're complaining about is a forum moderator.

Me too, but for three years now i ve been using android phones, i 've never seen a music player with decent graphics. Maybe Uber music but this is a clone of wp7 player too. Android lacks a player where you can browse album art smoothly without thinking you own a low end phone. This is the first time i can see my music library looking good

On XDA, sometimes you come across a thread with dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of replies. Most normal humans don't have the time to read through such a large number of replies in order to find the most useful posts. Today, we're making it much easier for you to find the best replies that get buried within a thread. Introducing the Most-Thanked Widget. It lives in the sidebar (of the 2013 theme) and displays which posts have received the most amount of Thanks. It's divided into All-Time and Recent to help you find the most timely and useful posts. You can help make the Most-Thanked widget even better by being sure to use the Thanks button whenever you spot a useful post across the XDA Forums.
A few other details:
Right now, the Most-Thanked widget is only available for logged-in members as we tweak its performance. However, we'll soon be rolling it out to guests
The widget ignore post 1, because most people know that post 1 often contains the most useful information; we didn't want to be redundant
All members are limited to eight Thanks per day. Use your Thanks wisely!
The Most-Thanked widget is a work in progress! We'll be tweaking its logic over the coming weeks and months to make it as useful as possible. Thanks for your patience. Feel free to provide some feedback here
What a sexy idea.
in the 2013 theme.

^^ Glad to see I'm not the only one who's still on the 2010 theme then It's so much nicer and more user friendly IMO.
Great idea, brilliant for overcrowded threads. Could you add an "option" or tab to leave out the posts by the OP? Having the posts has both advantages and disadvantages, as the users tend to thank the OP a lot. On the other hand, the OP only posts updates, so not having their post in the tab would be bad. That's why you should add a choice, best for both Maybe just limit the no. of posts by OP to 1 or 2
Great idea. Thanks for this svetius.
I'm finding it a little bit laggy at the moment but I'd figure that's just because it's only just been implemented. It's not a major lag though
''Evil corrupts the mind of the weak but fails to feed off the mind of the strong''
Yeah this is an awesome idea, but any way to integrate it into the XDA 2010 them for those of us who don't like the 2013 one?

It's a cool idea and even nicer to see I'm in both all time top 5's of the ICS and JB version of the ROM I support
Only niggle for me is that it takes the place of the existing widget (messages/threads/forums) so you have to go back out of the thread to then see your subscribed threads again. I use this to navigate the threads I want to read as have links to all the forums I moderate so not too bothered about those. Would be cool to have a subscription (or whatever you want to call it) and thanks tab or something along those lines so you can then still have quick access to both when in a thread.
As for those still preferring the 2010 theme, once you're used to it the 2013 theme is so much nicer to use and I've never viewed the portal as much as I do now thanks to the 5 most recent posts always being shown on the sidebar. I love it!
great idea

i wish both widgets exist in that side bar.. as its not already full and we can have both with leftover space in right side panel..
sir.. great idea.. thanks for this.. as its new i know it might have bugs..
so it seems there is a bug.. if the posts shown dont have titles.. then the title if its there for above post in thanks widget is shown for the below one too.. which is kinda annoying.. as they might be totally unrelated posts.. also some posts shown in widget doesnt have appropriate link to the actual post when clicked..
also 1 suggestion: please provide the message,threads,forums widget inside threads too along with this widget.. it helps a lot..
thanks for the widget again..
Edit: oops.. sorry for second post.. i could have edit the above one. i forgot that i wrote.

It's a preference thing. I've used the 2013 and it's too busy for me, I like the cleaner brown with a portal button at the top left if I want to view portal stories (which I do daily) I can go there.
I don't ever see me moving to the 2013 theme and I really hope they integrate this most thanked post feature into the 2010 theme because it's a really useful feature.

As I said before I WANT TO MAKE MY OWN THEMES! Untill now I only found themes and got it cool making some minor modifications, I made a thread you can found on Apps and Themes section. But I would like to know how can I fill the air command with some things I have in mind, such as different colours, frames, etc using photoshop. I search through google, got no lucky. It's difficult that's why I asking for. Information hasn't got to be a secret, it's internet it should be open for everyone, to all!
So what do you say abuout it???
PS: I think I can make some cool and better air commands, why we have to depend on ketan or wathever?
No reason for it!
