In this post in the "Guess the station?" thread I am seeing "This text is hidden because you are not logged in."

Presumably I am logged in as I am able to put up this posting. Expected behaviour?

The posts (except Clive’s latest) are from 10 years ago - did previous iterations of the forum software have a “spoiler” function, which doesn’t appear to have come across very well in subsequent migrations?

It did indeed, the post in question reads Warren Stret.

Oops, I didn't notice that. My forum-to-email system said there was a new message, so I just went and read the thread.

I guess there must be a bug in your code Clive that delays random threads by 9 years 8 months and 20 days

Shall I spend my time fixing that or fixing core code bugs?

Post #3643 in this other thread has one working spoiler button; and by chance I recall seeing another identical working spoiler button somewhere else on the forum recently. This does support the theory that a perhaps 'previous-to-previous' iteration of the forum had a functional spoiler function that hasn't coped well with the change to the forum 'software'.

If an admin / mod feels so inclined to perhaps remove the now outdated and no longer required spoiler from my post in the afore-linked to thread then I've no objections to this.
