Simple styled title row with heading, showing or hiding the complete following content- block or only a chunk of text. Looks well in desktop and mobile mode. (For better adaption of different website-designs it would be great if the color of the used borders for title-box and expanded content-box could be easily set via custom CSS code 😉 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ca8fd6cf836a9585f2ef07384a8be1b11fa40b02e2496514274b9192a7648d07? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great, but one thing…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-but-one-thing/)󠁿 [winkli](https://profiles.wordpress.org/winkli/) September 16, 2019 3 replies The most important feature for me was the box spoiler feature. After testing a little bit I can say that everything works fine! 🙂 Maybe you could implement custom colors into GUI. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5bfb3dbe47a382dd9b69cdee45002e1365eeaac43eae980dcad04576f63caa5e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great, simple little plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-simple-little-plugin/)󠁿 [kacper3355](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kacper3355/) December 16, 2018 1 reply The best spoiler plugin ever.

It comes with 2 options to choose from: a simple spoiler for text only, and 2-piece spoiler which can be used with any blocks. The way it works is very simple, yet very effective. You just add some Gutenberg blocks between a START SPOILER and END SPOILER blocks, and you get a very good looking dropdown. Very happy with the plugin!
