Tutorial: Hide Feature in Profile

Account Status: All
Actions: Hide Text Feature in Profile
Theme: All

So say your profile text is so much that you really want to hide some of it when people first go to your profile. Or maybe there is just something not everyone is going to be interested in. LJ cuts don't work in the profile but Spoiler cuts will.

You are look for your profile to do something like this...

1. The way to accomplish this is simple. Go to Edit Profile.

2. Around the text your want to be "hidden," put the following:
<lj-spoiler text="Read More">Text Here</lj-spoiler>


3. When you save your profile, everything in that spoiler section will be hidden. But like a spoiler section, once opened you have to refresh the page to hide it.

LOL yeah needed this so I could put a tutorial in one of my communities profile. it's far to pic heavy to be outside of a cut or spoiler.
