You shouldn't be doing this anyway, per Handling Spoilers.
Instead, you should find a descriptor for the character that avoids the spoiler while still unambiguously identifying them; "The Murderer" or something.
Are you sure it's the character's name that's the spoiler?
Edited by wingedcatgirl Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.It's just that the closing [[/folder]] part of the markup is missing. I added it to fix the formatting, but as the user above said, a character name can't be spoilered-out so you should try to describe them otherwise.
I'm curious why the markup even allows folder titles to be spoiler tagged. I guess because it's better than unintentionally leaving spoilers out in the open?
Keet cleanupI assume the feature was implemented before it was decided that we shouldn't do that?
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.Or maybe it's just that spoilers are indiscriminate about what they accept and don't even notice there's a folder in them.

I'm trying to make a new subfolder and character folder on this page for "Demons. For some reason, you can still see the "[[folder:]] around the name. The character's name is a spoiler so I want it to be hidden. I've tried it both as [[folder:name]] and i've tried is as just [[folder:name]] but the [[folder:]] is still visible. It seems like when I made the other folders for other characters I got the format right, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong for the demons?
