Dont ask, seems weird but I need 2 reply buttons on a cirtain forum with different buttons on each.

i thought id try this: but it dont work......

<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&noquote=1&p=[postid]" ......

im assuming [postid] is wrong as the forum is actually looking for [postid] and not the true post id.....

Thanks :)

What template are you adding this to? A postbit template? If so, you probably need to use {vb:raw post.postid}

Hi Lynn, This is vB3 Programming Discussions not 4.0. :p

Skivey, are you wanting to hide the default reply button in specific forum & add two new reply buttons, each linked to to post in an existing post? Do you mean thread?

This certain forum/thread must be closed for posting and is only there for member to submit reply to one of the new reply buttons (threads), right?
