What does this do?
Give users the oppurtunity to be able to post new threads while still in forumdisplay. They do so via a "Quick Thread" link that results
in the drop down of the form for a new thread.


What features does this hack provide?
Quickthread from forumdisplay

Extra Threadfields Hack Integration
F.A.Q
Q. The quickthread link shows automatically, what if i want to place it manually?
A. Simply disable the plugin titled "Show Quickthread Option". Then go to the "FORUMDISPLAY" template and place $quickthread
wherever you want the option to show.

Q. Does this work with your "Extra Threadfields Hack"
A. Yes, simply enable the "Extra Threadfields Integration" plugin.


Q. How to i enable/disable plugins?
A. If you have not yet done so, install the "Advanced Plugin Manager - Reloaded" hack for better control over your products and plugins.

Very nice!

Maybe it's just something on my board but when I make a thread with the quick thread, it auto subscribes me to the thread.

[FleaBag]

Whoa I love it! :)

Hm. It's not a problem with your site no. It does the same to me. I will look into this now.

[Gio~Logist]

Problem fixed. Small template issue.

ZIP UPDATED!!!

[VaaKo]

does it use ajax?

[Gio~Logist]

does it use ajax?
No it does not.

[.Tim]

Works perfect now.

[Gio~Logist]

Works perfect now.

Glad to hear it.

[GamerJunk.net]

Step 1. Import the following product: product-itrader_extension.xml
Step 2. Enjoy the hack.

lol

Thanks

[Gio~Logist]

Heh :p. I always like to include that last step.

[Gio~Logist]

For those of you wondering why it sais last updated today, it's just a small little change i made so that it only calls the phrasegroup needed in forumdisplay.

In other words, nothing different really. Simple tweaked it so that it doesn't do unnecessary things in unnecessary places.

[Cybertims]

I get a red cross in the window, must be an image missing???

It shows right at the end of the title box.

Cheers.

[Oddjob]

fantastic, installed.

[ragintajin]

Oh man, I've been DYING for a simple hack like this!

Any chance you can add the posticons and smilie box in there? Perhaps as a useroption?

This will be looked into.

Once you click install ofcourse :p Hehe

[Developer]

Heh :p. I always like to include that last step.
he means product-itrader_extension.xml :p Gio
testing it now, look like not a extension :surprised:

[Mastar]

Can it be made into a button and place next to the new thread??

[Developer]

totally not a extension and u should phrase this words:Quick Thread

[Gio~Logist]

Oops. Yes, that was a little typo in the readme.txt.


Zip Updated!!!

[OrangeFlea]

Great hack.

One thing, we want to place Quick Thread directly to the right of the NewThread button on ForumDisplay and have it associated with an image (i.e., quickthread.gif) instead of having it as a link with a drop-down menu. Can you show me how to do this. Also, as mentioned earlier by another user, there is a red x next to the thread title in the quick thread box. How do we fix that?

[Gizmo5h1t3]

gettin the red x here also.....

nice addition tho!!

Where do you get a red x?

Also, do not forget to click install.

[OrangeFlea]

I apologize. I've clicked install :)

The red x appears to the very right of the subject/title field. I'm still having problems with that and the other issue (mentioned in my previous reply).

In the forumdisplay_quickthread template

Change:
<a href="#quickthread" id="quickthread" class="smallfont">Quick Thread</a>

To
<a href="#quickthread" id="quickthread" class="smallfont"><img src="IMAGEHERE" border="0"></a>

Also, the zip is being updated for the red x error.

Also, the zip is being updated for the red x error.

Awesome, awesome. Also, would you mind telling me how to place it to the very right of the New Thread button. I want these two side by side. :banana:

[Gio~Logist]

Disable the "Show Quickthread Option".

Go to the FORUMDISPLAY template

Then put $quickthread after:
<if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if>

[OrangeFlea]

Has the zip been updated yet? And for some reason, the button prefers to appear on the top of the new thread button, not to the side of it (as I want it to).

Nice hack. And congrats on "Advanced Coder" status.

Nice hack. And congrats on "Advanced Coder" status.

Thank you very much :p

I owe a lot of my coding to a certain someone who always is there when i need help via AIM hehe

[ScruffyDeluxe]

Thanks! A very handy and easy to install hack.

The inevitable gripe: Is there any way to stop this showing in forums where no posting is allowed?

[NR Fatal]

how can I make this in the "Forum tools" drop down menu?

[hotwheels]

wow, that is freakin awesome.........

[RaceJunkie]

Is there a way to increase the thread title length?

[RaceJunkie]

6 days and no reply. Is the coder on vacation, dead, just plain too busy to support their hack?

[Gio~Logist]

Is there a way to increase the thread title length?

In forumdisplay_quickthread make the following edit:

Replace:
<input type="text" class="bginput" name="subject" value="$subject" size="40" maxlength="85" tabindex="1" />

With this:
<input type="text" class="bginput" name="subject" value="$subject" size="40" maxlength="NUMBERHERE" tabindex="1" />

Works with 3.6.4.

[4x4 Mecca]

for some reason, when ever I enter a message then click preview thread... I see every attachment I've uploaded on the forum attached to the post, but once I click preview again, they are gone.... anyone else have this problem?

[Xplorer4x4]

Any chance you will be getting editor controls built in? I love the concept!

[ThePimp]

Can someone test this on 3.6.8? I have tried to set this up, but keep getting the following error when I try to post from the QuickThread box...
"Invalid Action Specified"

This mod worked the very first time I used it, every time since it hasn't.

[Rob1986]

This works on 3.6.8 for me but I have zoints thread tags on my forum. Is there a way to add the tags input box?

[Przemo1]

great mods but it does not work under version 3.7
you know why?
