Adding Spoiler Tags to Discord Text Messages

There are different ways to add the Spoiler formatting to your text messages on Discord. The following steps will work on any given platform, comprising of web and mobile platforms i.e. Android, iOS, iPad, Windows, macOS, and any Web Browser.

To send a message with the Spoiler tag on Discord, type “/spoiler” before/beginning of the message. For instance, if we send the text, “/spoiler Welcome to Tech Baked” on a Discord server, it will hide the message. When typing the “/spoiler” text, you may get a pop-up from Discord mentioning that it is a built-in. You can continue typing your message and hit Enter. The message will be visible if the recipient decides to click on the black part of the message.

Alternatively, you can also send the text messages using the vertical bars on your keyboard. Insert vertical bars in the beginning and end of the message before sending. The message will be converted into a Spoiler format automatically. For instance, the message format will be like this, “||Follow us on Social Media||” and you hit enter afterwards.

Adding Spoiler Tags to Discord Images or Attachments

Discord also allows you to add the spoiler tag on images and any other attachments you send. However, the above-mentioned methods will not work while sending the attachments or images. All you need to do is mark the images or attachments as spoilers before sending them.

Having said that, there is a catch here. Sending images and attachments works only on the Web, the Windows app, and the macOS app. It isn’t supported on the mobile versions of Discord i.e. Android and iOS.

To send images or attachments as Spoilers on Discord desktop app or website, follow these steps:

  1. Click on the (+) button next to the message bar or drag and drop the file that you want to send as a spoiler.
