Forum:Help With Template:Hidden

Hello. Is there a way to set up the Hidden template so that content inside is hidden automatically, rather than shown automatically?

Thank you,

 * I'm not sure what this would be used for, but it's not hard. Just put this in hidden:

Thanks. But where specifically?

 * @Catuse: I think you meant style="display:none;" rather than class="display:none;", I fixed it for you.


 * @Whistle: The  code would make content permanently invisible. But if you look at the existing hidden template here on Community Central, it actually uses a collapsible navframe with show/hide. Or, perhaps you want a collapsible table such as this:

Alright, I’ve just taken a look at it. The hidden template here works how I would like my own wiki’s version to, but is there any way to move the text to the left? So that I have:

'''Click "show" to see XXX. [show]'''

Rather than:

'''Click "show" to see XXX. [show]'''

 * Sure. That's done with CSS, i.e. text-align: left; If you know enough about CSS / how the template works you can probably figure it out from there. If you need more specific help, you'll have to link to your template on your wiki. — Mathmagician 18:41, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, that’s worked. Thank you for your help.
