A lot of the custom code has stopped working for not upgraded user / if you're logged out. I know that non-upgraded users can't implement scripts, but logged out I couldn't even run any. These are a list of things I tested:

• From a logged out state, I couldn't work expand collapse code, both on my user page and Epochalyptik's page.

• From a logged out state, I could get the collapse code working on this comment link.

• From a logged out state I could still get links defined via (a href="blah") working (including from an image.

• From a logged out state I could get accordions working.

It seems like the problem is with the "onclick" event used to collapse code. I don't know why it worked in the commend but not on user's pages.

I have also noticed that a lot of custom code which works in the preview pane (an example would be using the /pre/code/blocks and converting symbols accordingly) and displays fine decides to then break once you actualyl post it. There have been times where I have tried to display code as plain text (using this) and it looked fine in the preview only to screw up once it was posted to page.

These are mostly custom scripts that now have equivalent format syntax added to the site since.

Except I did an exact copy / paste of the spoiler text hide/show (found in the formatting tips) and just added a few headings inside the div. That also didn't work when logged out.

You have to input them a certain way, otherwise they won't show. The triple equals sign followed by the spoiler:spoiler name, your text, and then the triple equals sign followed by endpoiler. Trying to implement it via pure code most likely will not work.

But the thing is, it does work. Just not for non-upgraded users. Do they have external scripts turned off or something? I knew they couldn't insert them themselves, but thats where I thought the limitations stopped.
