Hi, I’m not a host but rather a user of the WaniKani forums, and since this was not a bug for them, I thought I wouldn’t pester Viet. Any Details-related bugs that came up in the search were locked.
So first of all, writing the Details tag manually around the text does not seem to be working. So then I thought I was typing it incorrectly/didn’t leave enough spaces before/after my text.
So I tried using the button under the GEAR button to add details to selected text:
This _used_ to function normally as desired, and then you could replace “Summary” with whatever title your heart desired. However [over here at this post](https://community.wanikani.com/t/pass-the-haiku-a-forum-game/12141/466) the button instead applied the details tag around every separate line of text. Seeing this in my text box, I didn’t even bother to edit my post, but instead came here to report it. I shall try to recreate it here as an example, because it is _very_ odd behaviour.
> **Summary**
>
> Hello, this is a block of text.
> **Summary**
>
> It has multiple lines, because I like the enter key.
> **Summary**
>
> Doesn’t everyone?
> **Summary**
>
> Extra text to prove my point.
EDIT: That was a small four-line paragraph with enters between each line. And that’s what the Details Button did to my text. Point proven. Very easy to replicate. Not just a problem at [community.wanikani.com](http://community.wanikani.com).
Anyone else having this issue?

Reproduced this on meta:
```plaintext
// If the editor contains the following text
first line
second line
// Selecting them and clicking the `Hide Details` button would produce:
[details="Summary"]
first line
[/details]
[details="Summary"]
second line
[/details]
// While the desired behaviour should produce:
[details="Summary"]
first line
second line
[/details]
```
Took the liberty to fix it and added a test:

P.S. I did notice [@sam’s previous commit](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/c1560d8195f40dc048b8ad605ef8a67a516c64d6#diff-4d2812bfbfa25e51a1a2593493d065b3), but I believe the `{ multiline: true }` change was unintentional.

Hmm is this a regression @sam?
