# Spoiler-Plugins Problem

 * I’m testing out the spoiler-plugins from [http://secandri.com/blog/2005/02/22/spoiler-plugins-for-wp-15/](http://secandri.com/blog/2005/02/22/spoiler-plugins-for-wp-15/)
   and I’m having a problem. I tried posting a comment at that site a couple days
   ago, but still haven’t heard. I’m using WP 1.5.2, btw.
 * The plugin works fine on the full post, but it doesn’t show up on the main page.
   I noticed the script has this in the PHP code at the bottom:
 * `// if you use the_excerpt or comment_excerpt please enable code below this
    //
   i disable this because i dont use it on my template; and also sometime spoiler-
   tag doesnt complete. // //add_filter('the_excerpt', 'smart_spoiler_tag', 20);//
   add_filter('comment_excerpt', 'smart_spoiler_tag', 20);
 * I use the_excerpt_reloaded. Could that be the problem? This is the code I use
   to get the_excerpt_reloaded to work:
 * ` <?php
    if(is_single()) { the_content(); } else { the_excerpt_reloaded(100, '
   <a><img><b><i><ul><ol><li><h1><h2><h3><div><font><table>', 'excerpt', TRUE, '(
   More...)', FALSE, 1, TRUE); } ?>
 * I’ve tried activating the `add filter` line for ‘the_excerpt’, changing it to‘
   the_excerpt_reloaded’, but that still doesn’t work. I really like this plugin
   on the full post. Can anyone help me to get it to work on the main page? Thanks.

   Anybody?

 * I just wanted to let anyone who reads this post know that I finally figured out
   my problem. In case someone else has the problem, I’ll give a brief explanation
   of how I solved it:
 * I don’t know if all these tags are necessary to put into the PHP code to call
   the_excerpt_reloaded, but one of the things I did in getting the Spoiler-Plugins
   to work is make sure all html tags in the plugin were in the second parameter
   for the_excerpt_reloaded, and I have mine set like this:
 * `the_excerpt_reloaded(100, '<a><img><b><i><ul><ol><li><h1><h2><h3><div><font>
   <table><spoiler><input>', 'excerpt', TRUE, '(More...)', FALSE, 1, TRUE);`
 * In the spoiler-plugins file itself, I scrolled to the bottom and activated (removed
   the double slashes – `//`) the following line:
 * `add_filter('the_excerpt', 'smart_spoiler_tag', 20);`
 * At first, I changed it to ‘the_excerpt_reloaded’, but that didn’t work. Leave
   it as ‘the_excerpt’, even if you’re using the_excerpt_reloaded.
 * Hope this helps someone!
