Template:Hide

[show][hide]

{{{1}}}

Purpose

This template allows easy hiding of text and other content.

Usage

To use this template, use either the standard format     {{Hide| content }} or the named parameter format:

{{Hide
|show=
|hide=
|content=
}}

• show — This specifies the text of the link that shows the content that is initially hidden. (Optional - [show])
• hide — This specifies the text of the link that switches the content back to being hidden. (Optional - [hide])
• content — This specifies the content you want to be able to hide (Optional )

Advanced Usage

If this isn't enough, the template can be used in parts instead, for more flexible use within tables and div boxes.
For advanced usage, use this code:

{{hide|~button|show=|hide=}}
{{hide|~begin}}
Content
{{hide|~end}}

The button can be placed anywhere before {{hide|~begin}}. It will only affect the next instance of {{hide|~begin}}. Future instances require another button.

Example

To hide some text, use the following:

{{Hide|This is hidden text.}}

This results in:

[show][hide]

This is hidden text.

Alternatively:

{{Hide|content=This is hidden text.}}

This results in:

[show][hide]

This is hidden text.

To change what the buttons say:

{{Hide|show=[Unearth hidden secrets]|hide=[I'm done looking]|content=This is hidden text.}}

This results in:

[Unearth hidden secrets][I'm done looking]

This is hidden text.
