Adding a Spoiler Button to TinyMCE in Evolution CMS

Small editor plugins like a spoiler button can have a big editorial impact when teams need reusable interactive content blocks without writing markup by hand.

This TinyMCE plugin donor added a spoiler button that inserted expandable text blocks directly from the editor interface. It is a good example of how Evolution CMS teams extended the manager to match editorial needs instead of expecting every editor to hand-code markup.

Installation flow

  • copy the plugin into the TinyMCE plugins directory
  • register the plugin name in the custom TinyMCE configuration
  • add the corresponding toolbar button

Why it matters

This kind of package work is exactly what made the old ecosystem productive: small, focused enhancements that improved the authoring experience without changing the whole CMS.
