Add a Code-lockable in-line spoiler for the Content Body section.

[Lysander_Works]

Specific to Scribble Hub Story creation, something that initially works similarly to the spoiler button, but will only show and reveal content if the user/reader inputs a very specific password, set by the author.

Why?

> Because it would be a cool and unique way to generate interactive content. Think of it like a locked scene you can only get to after acquiring a key and some clues from other chapter areas. It would be amazing if we could add this in somehow.

Nay. The objective is to give the author an easier ability to generate an interactive story utilizing a branching story plot system.
I do already realize that the total use case of this would be rare, but I would very much love the feature.
The idea of it involves using a primitive script that defaults hiding what would essentially be a hidden scene inside of an already existing chapter.

... It might not be the best idea, but I'm still thinking, trying to find some way to satisfy the possibility to create a branching path story that does not forcibly crunch too many chapters into an arbitrary chronological order.

oh. you want to run "scripts" inside of your text.
Not an expert here, just saying that sounds like the plot line to internet security nightmare.
The whole reason we can't HAVE scripts in a lot of places on the internet?
Is because people abused it.
But like I said, I'm no expert. I wish you luck in your endeavor.

Doesn't the Spoiler Button already integrate into the very same system? Could have sworn it does. My feature add would be nothing more than an additive to the same system.
I don't know the technical back-end of the spoiler button, but all I can foresee being needed would be an author's ability to create a Scribblehub Generated prompt/popup, indicating a (yes or no) expectation for background feedback, and asking for keyboard input (codeword typing) to initiate the (yes/no > Correct/incorrect) reply prompt. Visit Memory would probably too complex, but wouldn't be necessary.

Like I said. I wish you luck getting your thing.

Thanks.
NGL, I feel tempted to try coding the implementation myself

Hm... It is a close better implementation of the many workarounds I thought of...

But after wracking my brain about it long enough, I feel like I'm gonna have to just submit to the mercy of a more informative system that warns readers if they are potentially reading into something that would be more of a spoiler. Interestingly enough, it would be also simple problem to solve if, specific chapters could be totally hidden from the table of contents (SH glossary). But then, that's another complex feature implementation which probably wont happen.

Best I might be able to do is create some warnings that certain events might not make sense, or, structurally organize my own TOC in method that is mostly chronological but also open-ended at the same time. One way or another, I'm gonna do it.
