Hide it Plugin
Posted on Wednesday the 15th of November, 2006 at 11:57 pm in PluginsSimilar to my most recent plugin, this plugin gives you a new bbcode called ‘hideit’ which will hide any text between the opening and closing tags. In order to keep it simple I have not included a button for this plugin.
Installation is simple. Click the link below to show the download link for the plugin, and then upload as normal.

Hi Aaron,
Thanks for this plugin. I am having trouble getting it to work though. If I understand correctly, adding bbcode like:
[hideit][/hideit]
[hideit][/hideit]
[hideit][/hideit]
to my template like this should be replaced by the plugin to enable the hide/unhide links. However, for my site, this [hideit] and [/hideit] remain and are just displayed with the comments. It’s like it’s not being processed. The plugin is enabled in the admin interface.
I modified the comments.php template like this:
[hideit][/hideit]
I tried modifiying the priority of the hide_it_replace to 8, from 10, to ensure it is processed before any other filter on the comment_text. That seemed to have no effect.
The JS is being included properly in the of each page.
PHP version is 4.4.4 and webserver is apache 1.3.33. I have also tried PHP 5.1.6 with no effect.
Can you provide any assistance or tips for getting this to work?
Thanks.
Reply to Chris HajerOops, the php code got stripped. Between the [hideit] and [/hideit] and php calls to the_content, comment_text and the_excerpt. Those calls still work properly, but they are wrapped in [hideit][/hideit]
Reply to Chris HajerThey only work inside of a post.
Reply to AaronThat makes sense. Thank you for the information.
Reply to Chris HajerHiya, I’m really glad I have found this information. Today bloggers publish just about gossips and internet and this is really irritating. A good site with exciting content, that is what I need. Thanks for keeping this web site, I will be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can’t find it.
