Add image as a spoiler?

I am trying to add an inline image as a spoiler.
ref:
viewtopic.php?p=388815#p388815
In that post, i tried using the following bbcode:
(Opening bracket replaced with a brace { so it'll show what I tried)
{spoiler]{url]
https://i.postimg.cc/QMG1H81B/Two-Box-V ... n.jpg{/url]{/spoiler]
I have tried adding the image as an inline attachment, but the spoiler is broken and the image just appears at the bottom of the post. (in another version of the post)
I can add the image as an attachment, or reference an external image hosting site - whichever is necessary.
Thanks for your help!

I appreciate the reply -
but what I need help with is hiding an image in a spoiler tag. click the spoiler below to see what I mean.
- Spoiler: show
- i want my image to be hidden inside here so it must be clicked on.

You might just be confused with the tags, because it looks to me that you already understood the mechanics behind the bbcode formatting.
Taking your example from the first post:
Code: Select all
[spoiler][url]https://i.postimg.cc/QMG1H81B/Two-Box-Variation.jpg[/url][/spoiler]
just replace the url-tags with img-tags. Then the link gets resolved into an image.
It should look like this in the message:
Code: Select all
[spoiler][img]https://i.postimg.cc/QMG1H81B/Two-Box-Variation.jpg[/img][/spoiler]
and this once it's send (or in preview):
- Spoiler: show
The url-tags are for having text that will be converted into a hyperlink, while the img-tag is to show an image from an url.

So, do it the same way as you put a message in spoiler. Just select the image code and click spoiler button, so it will work.

I'd have sworn I tried the img inside spoiler...
- Spoiler: show
But apparently it works... maybe I had a typo
Thanks!
Does Milo allow us to change the "spoiler" text?

You're welcome. Depending on what you tried, you might did not have a link ending on jpg or similar.
Because if it's not an image, the img-tag will only print out the word "Image".

You mean this "Spoiler: show/hide" stuff?
I fear not. At least I don't know of a way and the milo help-page for bbcode does also not cover this.
