I would like the whole text to be a spoiler, but within this I need to have a blockquote

This line should be part of a spoiler
> This line should be a block quote
this line should just be part of a spoiler.

I included the syntax that I thought it should be although this clearly doesn't work...

  • I'm not sure if it's a bug. I read somewhere else that formatting doesn't work inside an spoiler. Now where's that link. . .

  • I didn't know if it was a bug, but an error popped up saying I needed to add the bug tag

  • The spoiler markup is quite borked anyway. Afterall you can't even have a paragraph break inside a spoiler block, and I'd wager that to be even less bothersome than a blockquote.

  • @ChristianRau Inside a spoiler I just use <br><br> for a new paragraph

    Italics and quote marks are your friend... but then again, I detest the use of spoiler markup, so shrug.

You can use HTML markup within the spoiler.

This line should be part of a spoiler

This line should be a block quote
this line should just be part of a spoiler.

>! This line should be part of a spoiler
>! <blockquote>This line should be a block quote</blockquote>
>! this line should just be part of a spoiler.

The blockquote line isn't hidden by the spoiler, but the content is. The blockquote is shown separately by hovering that particular block of the spoiler (bug report).
