Hi,
I hope everything is going well for everyone this week!
I'm not sure if this has been reported before and I didn't search for any previous post about it, but I just noticed something in the way the forum displays text, and maybe the person responsible for coding/maintenace is aware of that already, but let me try and explain the best I can what I think the problem is.
Let's say we are looking into the "Depression" section.
There is a list of posts made by the members, with the
original post title on the
left, and then we can see the
last post date and
user,
replies and
views on the
right.
When you hover the mouse over the
post title on the
left, a
tooltip box pops up with a "preview" of the whole text inside the post.
At least it does on Firefox, but I have not tested it on other browsers.
You see,
in posts where trigger codes were added to the text, this tooltip excerpt ignores it and shows text that should actually be hidden.
So I suppose that the forum code that selects the text to be displayed inside this tooltip is ignoring the trigger codes, and displaying text it shouldn't display.
Example: let's say someone wrote a post like this (note that this is only an example to illustrate the problem):
Title: "
I need Help!"
Text: "
Hi, my name is John and I lost my diecast toy soldier collection."
Supposing a mod decided that the "
I lost my diecast toy soldier collection." part should have a trigger code, it will be hidden when viewing the post unless the "Show" button is pressed.
However the tooltip on the page that shows the posts list will display the whole text, if I hover the mouse over the "
I need Help!" title.
I hope I managed to explain the situation well enough.
Thank you very much for reading!
