Quick Reply Box

[ja5es]

I can't seem to get this to work with vB 2.2.6... I can't find the code to replace. Can anyone help me out?

[GamerNext]

It's there, trust me. I am running it.

[ja5es]

Well I modified what I think is the correct code, made the new templates, etc. and it still doesn't work... at all.

[marc49]

my quick reply box shows up at the top and not the bottom like on here, how do I fix that? how did you fix that GamerNext??

[Boofo]

There are 2 parts in the code the same. Put it after the second part.

ok, I am a beginner at this stuff, so please tolerate my ignorance.
but what has the two parts? is it the showthread.php?? because I went from the bottom up and then inserted it in the right area. or is it in the admin panel that I did something wrong?

[Boofo]

You need to follow the directions and insert exactly where it tells you to in the showthread template. There are 2 instances of the code there. Put $replybox after the 2nd one.

[marc49]

Thank you very, very much. I appreciate it a lot. I love this site!!! it's full of awesome hacks

[Boofo]

I know what it was like when I first started here. There are a lot of great people here and most of them will be more than willing to lend a hand. Enjoy! :)

[2600]

My box is not obaying the page borders, its larger than the thread area. Anyone help me with a fix for this?

[2600]

Never mind all sorted now and ive marked as installed! Great hack thanks!

I've got a modification that I wrote for my forums that allows users to turn the quick reply box on/off in their profile. If anyone's interesting, let me know, because otherwise I won't bother :).

[James Cridland]

I'm very interesting, and also very interested in this hack.

(Actually, I'm quite boring.)

[Boofo]

I want to be mature about this so...gimme, gimme, gimme, pweez! :)

[Darth Cow]

Since I already have two requests...

First, run this database query:

ALTER TABLE user ADD showquickreply tinyint(1) DEFAULT '1' not null AFTER nosessionhash

EDIT: Corrected it to "AFTER nosessionhash" (I forgot I was basing the location after another hack I installed :p)

That will set the default to show the quick reply - changing "DEFAULT '1'" to "DEFAULT '0'" should set the default to no display.

Make a new template "modifyoptions_showquickreply" with the following contents:

<tr>
<td bgcolor="#13486D"><normalfont><b>Show Quick Reply Box?</b></normalfont><br>
<smallfont>Disabling this option will hide the quick reply boxes at the end of
each thread. You can still reply by clicking on "Post Reply".</smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#13486D"><normalfont>
<input type="radio" name="showquickreply" value="yes" $showquickreplychecked> yes
<input type="radio" name="showquickreply" value="no" $showquickreplynotchecked> no
</normalfont></td>
</tr>

Now, in member.php, after:


if ($bbuserinfo[nosessionhash]) {
$nosessionhashchecked="checked";
$nosessionhashnotchecked="";
} else {
$nosessionhashchecked="";
$nosessionhashnotchecked="checked";
}

Add:

// Show Quick Reply Option
if ($bbuserinfo[showquickreply]) {
$showquickreplychecked="checked";
$showquickreplynotchecked="";
} else {
$showquickreplychecked="";
$showquickreplynotchecked="checked";
}
// Show Quick Reply Option

Still in member.php, before:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("modifyoptions")."\");");
}

// ############################### start update options ###############################

Add:

// Show Quick Reply Option
eval("\$showquickreplyoption = \"".gettemplate("modifyoptions_showquickreply")."\";");
// Show Quick Reply Option

EDIT: Forgot this step at first, but here it is :). In member.php after:

In member.php, after:

$cookieuser=iif($cookieuser=="yes",1,0);
$nosessionhash=iif($nosessionhash=="yes",1,0);

Add:

// Show Quick Reply Option
$showquickreply=iif($showquickreply=="yes",1,0);
// Show Quick Reply Option

Still in member.php, find:

$DB_site->query("UPDATE user
SET ".$updatestyles."adminemail='$adminemail',
showemail='$showemail',invisible='$invisible',cook ieuser='$cookieuser',
maxposts='".addslashes($umaxposts)."',daysprune='".addslashes($prunedays)."',
timezoneoffset='".addslashes($timezoneoffset)."',emailnotification='$emailnotification',
startofweek='".addslashes($startofweek)."',options='$options',receivepm='$receivepm',
emailonpm='$emailonpm',pmpopup='$pmpopup',usergrou pid='$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]',
nosessionhash='$nosessionhash'

Add (continuing previous line):
,showquickreply='$showquickreply'

Finally, in showthread.php, after:

} elseif (!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) {
$replybox='';
(Note: you'll have to install the regular quick reply hack first to find this)

Add:
} elseif ($bbuserinfo['showquickreply']==0) {
$replybox='';

EDIT: One final step I forgot:

Edit the modifyoptions template. After the following code:

<!-- *** -->
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#1D6AA0" colspan="2"><normalfont color="#EEEEFF"><b>Thread View Options</b></normalfont></td>
</tr>
<!-- *** -->

Add:

$showquickreplyoption

There, that should do the trick :). If you have any trouble or can't get it to work, let me know.

vB 2.2.6
Been trying to add the smilies to this with no luck...
I tried $vbcode_smilies as in the new reply,etc.. but it is not working. Anyone know the code?

Thanks,

[Boofo]

To add smilies to the quick reply box:

Add this line:

$clickysmilies = getclickysmilies();

to showthread.php right after this:

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

then use $clickysmilies in the showthread_quickreply template to add the box with the smilies in it, but you will also need to add these two lines:


<script language="Javascript" src="vbcode.js"></script>
<script language="Javascript" src="vbcode_language.js"></script>


to the template right after the <form> tag. That should work.

Yes. Take the 5 lines above it to the 5 lines below the error and post all of those.

[Boofo]

Which line is the line with the error in it (line 94, I think)?

[Kiraly]

[Boofo]

Try changing this:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("showpost")."\");");
exit;

to this:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("showpost")."\");");
exit;



and let me know if it works. If it doesn't, make sure you put the code back as it was and we will go from there. :)

ok Quick reply go ON ;)

[Heineken77]

How can I set it that when you use the quick reply box, people are automatically subscribed to the thread and receive email notification when there is a reply? :)

[DrkFusion]

Hey Heineken, now I am sure if the members turn that off in there options, there must be a reason for it, you really shouldn't go forcing that.

If they have it on, it automaticaly gets subscribed anyways.

Drk

[Boofo]

How did you resolve it?

[Heineken77]

Hey DrkFusion :)

Thanks for the reply, but are you sure that if we have it picked to notify by email to reply it automatically subscribes us when we reply through the quick reply box?

I have email notification enabled, however whenever I use the quick reply box, I never get subscribed :(

Thanks for the reply :)
Heineken

[DrkFusion]

Well, I remember that FireFly said that the reply box does use the newreply.php and well it should work.

Drk

[Heineken77]

Doh! well i'll try reinstalling it and see if that changes:)

thanks again.

[Boofo]

Sorry, buddy, I have to call you on this one. It will not use the email check in newreply. I had to add an external one to do it for the Quick Reply box. :)

Hey Boofo :) Think you could explain to me how to do that? :D

Really...hmm, when I posted a problem, I said that people were able to post though it was closed (this was when I was new to vb) he said they shouldn't be able to because, it uses the newreply.php, later I found out, they can't post only I can cuz im admin lol

Drk

[Boofo]

Here is a simpler way to do it than I did it. :)

1- in showthread.php (in hacks code), find:

if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid']) {
show_nopermission();
}

after that add:

if ($bbuserinfo[emailnotification]!=0) {$emailchecked='yes';}


2- edit template showthread_replybox, find:

<input type="hidden" name="email" value="">

Replace it AS:

<input type="hidden" name="email" value="$emailchecked">


Originally posted by Heineken77

[Boofo]

Yes, but they won't get a notification email about the new message to the thread if it is made with the Quick reply Box unless you add some code to it to check for email notification. :)

Ah I see, thanks didn't know that

No problem. I didn't know either. I found out the hard way. :)

thx Boofo! ;)

My pleasure. Enjoy! ;)

How do I add a Attatchement field?

Drk

[Boofo]

Put this:

<tr>
<td bgcolor="#4A7B9D" valign="top" nowrap><normalfont><b>Attach file:</b></normalfont><br>
<smallfont>Size Limit: $maxattachsize bytes</smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#4A7B9D" valign="top"><smallfont><input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="$maxattachsize_temp">
<input type="file" class="bginput" name="attachment"><br>
Valid file extensions: $attachextensions</smallfont></td>
</tr>

right after this:

<a href="javascript:checklength(document.vbform);">[check message length]</a></smallfont>

That should do the trick


*Remove the spaces after { and before }

Sorry to bring this up again, I installed the quick reply box easy poo and want this addon described here, I have done it exactly as it says but the smilies will not appear.

I took the 'showthread_quickreply' template for the 'showthread_replybox' template, dont think that's anything to do with it though. I know this subject is old but I need an answer for this please......ta. :ermm:

[nemesis01]

Sorry to bring this up again but I still need help, I dont like clogging up email or PM inboxes asking for help so i'll ask again here. I have been working on this now for 2 days with another person and we still cannot get the clickable smilies to show up in the quickreply box, I really dont know what we are doing wrong.

We are using the exact same template as described in the hack txt file with the small adjustment highlighted earlier in this thread, alas it does not work.

If somebody can please help I would be grateful, would be even better help if somebody could post a modified showthread_replybox template with the changes implemented to enable the clickable smilies. If it helps we are running 2.2.6 if that makes any difference to what needs to be added to the showthread_replybox template.

Thanks. :dead:

[Boofo]

To add smilies to the quick reply box:

Add this line:

$clickysmilies = getclickysmilies();

to showthread.php right after this:

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

then use $clickysmilies in the showthread_quickreply template to add the box with the smilies in it, but you will also need to add these two lines:

<script language="Javascript" src="vbcode.js"></script>
<script language="Javascript" src="vbcode_language.js"></script>

to the template right after the <form> tag. That should work.

hey can some1 help on this. i installed it almost perfect. the problem is that the reply box it at the top of the thread instead at the bottom. how can i fix that?

[Boofo]

Reply ASAP? What is that?

You need to put the code after the second instance in the showthread template.

The one I use now, doesnt do that...I think that suckz...

[NexDog]

Okay, pure nightmare here. In showthread.php I have to find this code:
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0))
{ show_nopermission(); } if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") { $pagenumber=1; }

But in mine (2.2.6), it's smaller:

if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

So I replace all that with this?


if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'])
{ show_nopermission(); } if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postuserid']) and (!$getperms['canviewothers']
or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) { $replybox=''; } elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown']
and $bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuserid']))
{ $replybox=''; } elseif (!$thread['open'] and
!ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) { $replybox=''; } else { $textareacols = gettextareawidth(); eval("\$replybox = \"".gettemplate
('showthread_replybox')."\";"); } if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") { $pagenumber=1; }

Then I create a new template called showthread_replybox. Do I add the same code to this template?

Then the instructions say:
3. In the "showthread" template add $replybox right after the following: // $pagenav

Does it mean the showthread_replybox template or the major Show Thread Templates > Expand > showthread ??

Anyhow, this: $pagenav, is in neither.

WTF??

[NexDog]

Okay, tripped slightly.

This is what I've done:

1) In showthread.php, added the necessary code.
2) Created a new template, with the name, "showthread_replybox" and added the same code in there.
3) Went to Show Thread Templates > Expand > showthread and added $replybox right after $pagenav.
4) Then I uploaded showthread.php.

The result is zilch, nada, zip. I know I've screwed up, just tell me where. :D

[Boofo]

In the showthread template, the $replybox goes after the SECOND $pagenav. ;)

Still doesn't work though.....:(

[Boofo]

Ok, let's help you get this figured out. First, let's have you go through the showthread.php part and double check that you have added everything you are supposed to. Check that out and let me know what you find out. This is one of the easiest hacks to install so it must be messed up somewhere. :)

And just to be sure...make sure you add this:

$replybox

After the SECOND instance of this in the showthread template.

</tr>

<!-- first unread and next/prev -->

I PMed you my showthread template. Originally I put it here:
<!-- first unread and next/prev -->
<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="{contenttablewidth}" {tableinvisibleextra} align="center">
<tr>
<td><smallfont>$pagenav $replybox
$firstunread&nbsp;</smallfont></td>

But after your instructions, I put it here:
</tr>
</table>
<!-- first unread and next/prev -->
$replybox

Which is right after that previous code. Still doesn't work.

[LOD-squa]

I tryed to install it but nothing appeared can I get some help?

[LOD-squa]

n/m I got it.

[NexDog]

Good for you. :)

Where am I going wong??

[NexDog]

Whimper....

I got vbhacker now. Can I use that to do this? It doesn't show up though. Would I have to reupload or something.

Firefly, where for art thou and all that malarkey. :D

[Intex]

Great hack Firefly :cool:.

Just another thought, how do I use graphic buttons for the Reply and Reset forms? I'd like to change it for the quick reply and the usual reply.

Cheers.

[NexDog]

I can't work out what is supposed to go in the showthread_replybox template. FireFly's txt file looks too weird. Please check out the screenshot to see what I'm seeing.

[NexDog]

When I actually download the text file and open it in NotePad, I see this:

2. Create a new template,
with the name "showthread_replybox": //
##################################################
Post Reply
Your Reply:
[check message length]





// ################################################## 3. In the "showthread"
template add $replybox right after the following: //
################################################## $pagenav Last Thread
Next Thread
// ################################################## You're all done, now
upload showthread.php back to your server and enjoy this hack. :-) Chen

Nothing appears for me even if I put that weird text in the template. :(

[Intex]

Looking at the screenshot you've sent in, it looks like you've cut and paste too much of the text from his readme. Check carefully that you've only selected the bits he has indicated. I've just introduced this hack and it works perfectly and the text was pretty straight forward.

It maybe as simple as you've forgotten an { or something like that, but from what I see you've copied in a large section of the text including his actual comments.

[Intex]

I just submitted an answer just as you posted that.

Anyway, that definitely isn't right. Looks like you had a corrupted download or something. Try it again. Like I say I know it works because I only downloaded it myself 30 mins ago.

The text file should look like this at the beginning (this isn't all of it btw):

// ##################################################

1. In showthread.php find this bit of code:

if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}
// ##################################################
And replace it with the following:
// ##################################################
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid']) {
show_nopermission();

[NexDog]

In my showthread.php I have ntered this code in the right place:

if
(!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid']) {
show_nopermission(); } if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postuserid']) and
(!$getperms['canviewothers'] or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) { $replybox=''; }
elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown'] and
$bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuserid'])) { $replybox=''; } elseif
(!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) {
$replybox=''; } else { $textareacols = gettextareawidth(); eval("\$replybox =
\"".gettemplate('showthread_replybox')."\";"); } if ((!isset($pagenumber) or
$pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") { $pagenumber=1; }

The showthread template is all good. I just don't know what to put in the showthread_replybox template. Please paste FireFly's instructions for Step 2. PLEASE!!!!!!

[Intex]

You really should sort out your problems with the file download because it certainly ok. Anyway, just to help out here is the rest of it. Apologies for unnecessariy text hogging Admins :rolleyes:.


2. Create a new template, with the name "showthread_replybox":

Dude, you rock! That's all I needed. I've been banging my head against the wall for days.

How do I change the colors. Where are the variables and how do I find out the variable names for the forum headers etc so I can match it up?

[Intex]

To my knowledge you don't change anything in his actual code. You do all this from your Admin CP, where you change the colours for everything else.

If you want that to appear differently, then I think you'll need to add additional code to firefly's coding.

[NexDog]

Worked it out. The colors can be changed in this part of the showthread_replybox template:

<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#1D6AA0" colspan="2"><normalfont color="#EEEEFF" class="thtcolor"><b>Post Reply</b></normalfont></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#1C5780" valign="top" nowrap><normalfont><b>Your Reply:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#1C5780">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr valign="top">
<td><textarea name="message" rows="7" cols="$textareacols" wrap="virtual" tabindex="1"></textarea><br>
<smallfont><a href="java script:checklength(document.vbform);">[check message length]</a></smallfont></td>
</tr>
</table>

Is there a reason why the reply box is on top of my threads?

Thanks for the help!!

Joe

[Boofo]

Because you need to put $replybox after the SECOND instance of the code in the showythread template.

[cka]

I'm enjoying this mod for my forum; specifically due to the fact that the webserver is a pile of garbage and I like anything that helps cease page loads. ;)

[pHAZE_1]

some of the members at my board and others are having this problem. i havent had it, but one user says

"when you click enter to send the post in quick reply, 75% of the time it reloads and doesnt submit"

[Stylez]

alright i got a problem with showthread.php in 2.2.6

first step says

1. In showthread.php find this bit of code:
// ##################################################
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}

----------------------

my showthread shows

if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

---------------------------------

but not the rest......the other part is in an entirely different place.

what should i do?

[2 X Viverridae]

Well - it could be because of any of a number of hacks you have previously installed. To make it easier to diagnose, post ALL the code, incuding what is between the first and last part - but put it in an attachment.

With a little more info, we may be able to help you make this work.

Nope...not even on a fresh install...I've put it away for now to look at it again later...but I think it's in the code hack not the original showthread code, is that right?

Anyways...I originally used another version of this hack as a basis for the idea and then wrote it my own way w/o modifying showthread.php...

What line is it supposed to be on?

[Boofo]

There's the problem. That code is in the code that you add for Firefly's Quick Reply box. That is why it is not on a fresh install of vb. You will only find it after adding the Quick Reply Box code. :)

[Boofo]

I basically did the same thing with the vbcode_buttons. I made a smaller set to use in my quick reply boxes (regular and pm) but that involved hacking the vbcode_buttons code, so I'm afraid that would have to be the case for a smaller amount of smilies, too. :)

[snyx]

you said you have done this? or somthing along the lines, or am I reading this all wrong?

[Boofo]

Yes, I did it with the vbcode buttons. I would have to look at the smilie code to see how to do it. It involves a lot more than just transferring code from one to the other. :)

[meteore]

thx

[Learner29]

I double checked that in my options, this option is set to yes

Use 'Email Notification' by default?
Using this option emails you whenever someone replies to a thread that you have participated in.

STILL, when I use the quick reply box, and then edit the post, I notice that the email notification little square at the bottom of the post is NOT checked.

Why is this ??

[MarkL]

I did this hack and it shows up, but when I post with it, a message comes up saying, 'No thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the webmaster'. Does anyone know what I could have done wrong?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
hm.... this cool thing doesn?t work for me with vb 2.2.7 :\

we used it till yesterday and after the update, the quick reply box was gone
:(

any ideas? :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
did you reapply the hack or not ?
if you did not reapply the hack, then you are simply now using the normal
templates of vb2.2.7 which of course do not include the quick reply box
functionality

Weird Weird Weird...

I had this hack(quick reply box) installed on my 2.2.6 version board. I updated to 2.2.7. The hack(quick reply box) was not there. I then reinstalled the hack according to the instructions, went into a forum and the hack(quick reply box) WAS there. I made 3 test posts using the hack. I went into another forum and the hack(quick reply box) was NOT there.

I found this odd, choose then another (now third) forum, and the hack(quick reply box) still was NOT there.

I went back to the original forum in which I posted 3 times using the hack(quick reply box) and the hack(quick reply box) was NOT there too???

What's up with that?

@ otacon - the code snippet in the 'showthread' template...

I'm using it on vB 2.2.7 with Quick Thread and the Store hack already installed. I get errors with this hack, it comes up with a Permissions error. I'm guessing that this hack won't work because I've got the Store hack and the Quick Thread hack installed?

Ok, here is a problem for you guys/gals. I have preformed hack as detailed in the readme untill the last step. I don't have a showthread template to modify by adding $replybox to (at least not that I can find) I have no box no nothing as far as my fourm nothing has changed. I inherited this fourm from another person, and I am assuming there is something acting like a showthread template as the fourm works, but I can't find the script that I need to add to....................HELP

PS the showthread_replybox template is there and will preview
I am running version 2.2.1 if that matters

[badham]

Firefly......somebody.........I am sure this is an easy fix for you (not for me). Do I need to make a showthread template since I dont have one, and what code needs to be in there.................

[Pro]

1. In showthread.php find this bit of code:
// ##################################################
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}
// ##################################################
And replace it with the following:
// ##################################################
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid']) {
show_nopermission();
}

if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postuserid']) and (!$getperms['canviewothers'] or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) {
$replybox='';
} elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown'] and $bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuserid'])) {
$replybox='';
} elseif (!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) {
$replybox='';
} else {
$textareacols = gettextareawidth();
eval("\$replybox = \"".gettemplate('showthread_replybox')."\";");
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}

I'm on 2.2.7 and those two:

if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}

aren't together...

so where do i add:

if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postuserid']) and (!$getperms['canviewothers'] or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) {
$replybox='';
} elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown'] and $bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuserid'])) {
$replybox='';
} elseif (!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) {
$replybox='';
} else {
$textareacols = gettextareawidth();
eval("\$replybox = \"".gettemplate('showthread_replybox')."\";");
}

please help, i had the same problem in 2.2.6

you should add the word "$replybox" right after the text that was mentioned
here above.

that is look for the text above (use control + F, or Edit, and then Find) ,
and then immediately below it add this word :

$replybox

you should take a look at this board here:
"Powered by: vBulletin version 2.2.8, copyright ©2000 - 2002, Jelsoft Enterprises Limited"

and as you can see the quick reply is working..

[JFry]

I can't seem to get it to work on 2.2.8, either. I did everything, exactly as instructed. No reply box shows up.

Look for "if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {

on the second time...

Cause I got lost as well, but then I searched for it and it was the second listing...Great hack still.

[Ceros Sin Kii]

I recently installed it, and it works out great for the most part. One problem, however..

It appears at the top of each thread rather than the bottom. Anyway to fix this?

[Tony DiMera]

I have done that, make sure you put $ replybox(without the space) after the 4th <!-- first unread and next/prev --> in the showthread template

[JFry]

I restored my original showthread.php file, removed the new template, and reverted the modified template to the original. I then reinstalled and it still doesn't work. It doesn't show up in new threads, old threads, posts of admins, posts of regular members. The box is nowhere to be found. Any ideas what I could possibly be doing wrong to cause it to simply not appear? Thanks.

Check all of your template sets, make sure you have modified them all with the code in the instructions.

It gets rid of 1 unnecessary query

@ otacon - the code snippet in the 'showthread' template...

<!-- first unread and next/prev -->

...shows up a total of 4 times - $replybox should be after the fourth instance of it - you have it placed after the second instance of it.

Easy mistake to make...

[[email protected] vbmenu_register("postmenu_307511", true);]

This is awesome. Installed !

Is the a way to stretch the reply box to the right some?

[edwardandtubbs1]

very easy to install, just make sure you get the "$replybox" in the right place. Version 2.2.8

[Areku]

Some users using the Quick Reply box complain about not getting the email notifications anymore... Is there any fix for this? thanks!

[sauron2002]

top class stuff, me using

[TimHL]

I have tired to install this on a 2.2.8 and it doesn't show up . I put it in the correct place but it doesn't work. FireFly any ideas?

[Sia Bani]

I've successfully installed this on 2.2.8! It's GREAT....but....

Now I get blank pages every once in awhile when people try to link to another page, another secion on the forum, another thread, when they click reply...anything they click.

It's occasional, and I can't seem to figure otu what is causing this. Any ideas firefly??

[BigCheeze]

<- MORON ALERT

OK guys.. I've tried.. and failed to install this hack.... I have checked what I though was all correct, and still nada. Here's the info:

System: VB 2.2.8, phpPortal 3.0 pr8.1, PHP 4.2, Red Hat 7.3. The Quick reply box shows up at the bottom, but when I put in a message and click submit reply, I get:


vBulletin Message
No thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the webmaster


hhhhhh..... What did I do wrong? Thanks guys!!

[xevito]

I cant get it to go at the bottom.

[Rand M]

Installed in v2.2.8, all working (after putting $replybox in the right place).

Many thanks

[xevito]

Fixed ;) I was being a numpty ;)

[xevito]

Erm got it installed but it doesnt seem to work all the time for me - any ideas?

[Dean C]

Whoooaaa i haven't played with this hack for a LONGGGGGG time..

Anywayz if a thread is closed the quick reply box shows up for mods, sm's and admins and not regular members...

How do i get it so if the thread is closed the quick reply box will only show up for admins :D

- miSt

[xevito]

I have reinstalled but I tried the email thing and that screws up.

Anyone know how to make the subscribe thing work properly.

I got this all installed (Like I said before I was being a moron). I got the attachments working, and the smilies box. However, when I try to add this feature..

If you turn it off, it won't turn it back on. It will change the vaule in the DB to 0 for off, but doesn't seem to want to change it back to 1 for on. I have to manually do that.

Any clue? Did I miss something??

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

[X-Fan]

Okay, this is bizarre. After upgrading to v2.2.8, I'm now getting "Object Expected" javascript errors on the New Thread and Edit Post pages.

Any ideas how to fix that?

[smess]

will this work on 2.2.2.?

[AlexT]

is this available for 2.2.8 please. I notice this forum is run and 2.2.8 and has a perfect quick reply box. Am i missing something or is it available and compatible ?

All help is greatly appreciated.

[Chris M]

@AlexT and smess - It should work for most if not all of the 2.2.x versions;)

Satan

[smess]

My reply box showed up at the top instead of the bottom, any help would be appreciated.

[spittingangels]

i'm currently using this hack and it works great but some of my members have requested implementation of the mood hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?s=&threadid=41883) done by VeloCD and his instructions for including his hack within this hack are incorrect. has anyone else gotten the two hacks to work together?

[Chris M]

@smess:

When it tells you to look for the "<first/prev..." info, find the fourth occurance, and put $replybox directly underneath it:)

Satan

[David_McPherson]

Does anyone know how one might move the quick reply box to center with the "submit reply and reset form" buttons below. Also to have the "your Reply' text box a bit bigger? so it matches the box above?

This hack will add a quick replying box at the bottom of all threads, only if the user has permission to reply, so when you need to reply to something real quickly you don't need to click the Post Reply button and wait for the page to load.

Instructions are in the attached .txt file, and if you want a demo... just look below. :D

If you want users who have the Use Email Notification option ON, to automatically subscribe to threads they reply to with this hack, see this post:

If you want to add an option for each user to turn this feature on and off, please see this post:

or to modify it? If 2?, where I need to add $replybox ?

[Erwin]

Add $replybox where you want the reply box to show up. So probably at the bottom.

[Chris M]

You need to modify the template, and find the fourth occurance of:

<!-- first unread and next/prev -->

Directly below that, add :

$replybox

Satan

[iwk_batterio]

ah , ok thx ! :classic:

[FleaBag]

Working nicely with 2.2.8, thanks. :)

[Oddish]

I'm getting JavaScript errors when using this hack: "Undetermined string constant."

EDIT: Forget it, an extra linebreak slipped through and messed up the "message too long"-alert string.

[X-Fan]

I'm still getting "Object Expected" javascript errors on the New Thread and Edit Post pages after having upgraded to v2.2.8 and re-implemented this hack.

Can someone PLEASE help me to fix that, as it's driving my visitors (and myself) nuts!!!!!!

[Erwin]

Check the javascript section of your quickreply template. It's a javascript error. Copy and paste that bit again.

[X-Fan]

My showthread_replybox template is exactly what's in the install instructions. In fact, I've double and triple checked, and this hack is installed exactly as instructed, yet I'm still getting a javascript error!

[Chris M]

Post the javascript you are using...

It should look like :

<script language="javascript">
<!--
var postmaxchars = $postmaxchars;
function validate(theform) {
if (theform.message.value=="") {
alert("Please complete the message field.");
return false; }
if (postmaxchars != 0) {
if (theform.message.value.length > $postmaxchars) {
alert("Your message is too long.\n\nReduce your message to $postmaxchars characters.\nIt is currently "+theform.message.value.length+" characters long.");
return false; }
else { return true; }
} else { return true; }
}
function checklength(theform) {
if (postmaxchars != 0) { message = "\nThe maximum permitted length is $postmaxchars characters."; }
else { message = ""; }
alert("Your message is "+theform.message.value.length+" characters long."+message);
}
//-->
</script>

Satan

[X-Fan]

Here 'tis:


<script language="javascript">
<!--
var postmaxchars = $postmaxchars;
function validate(theform) {
if (theform.message.value=="") {
alert("Please complete the message field.");
return false; }
if (postmaxchars != 0) {
if (theform.message.value.length > $postmaxchars) {
alert("Your message is too long.\n\nReduce your message to $postmaxchars characters.\nIt is currently "+theform.message.value.length+" characters long.");
return false; }
else { return true; }
} else { return true; }
}
function checklength(theform) {
if (postmaxchars != 0) { message = "\nThe maximum permitted length is $postmaxchars characters."; }
else { message = ""; }
alert("Your message is "+theform.message.value.length+" characters long."+message);
}
//-->
</script>

[Chris M]

Hmmm...Looks exactly the same as the stuff I posted...

Just try using what I posted instead - See if there is any difference:)

Satan

[Asso]

this hack is great!

it must be inserted in vB3 :cool:

[Chris M]

http://beta.vbulletin.com/vb3/

Check there - It already is;)

Satan

[Esdee]

I can't add a link to the "get more smiliespage"

I added this but it says error on page when I click it


[<a href="javascript:opensmiliewindow(240,280,'$session[sessionhash]')">Smilies</a>]</smallfont>

[Chris M]

Try :

<a href="http://$bburl/misc.php?s=&action=showsmilies" target="_blank">Smilies</a>

Satan

[Esdee]

Thanks,
that works, but I'm actually looking for a hack that gives the same popup window as it does when clicking on "get more" in a normal reply ^_^;

[Chris M]

I see...

Is the Javascript needed to generate the popup actually in the showthread template?

Satan

[Esdee]

[<a href="javascript:opensmiliewindow(240,280,'$session[sessionhash]')">Smilies</a>]</smallfont>

I cot this from the vbcode_smilies_getmore template :confused:
For some reason it says "error on page"

[Chris M]

Thats because I believe the Javascript for the Smilies open box thingy is in the newthread/newreply template;)

Satan

[Esdee]

hmm.
The newpost and newreply templates have only the javascripts for the spellscheck and max message leght.

[wolfe]

i really need help on this one right i have gone 1 step further

after


if ($bbuserinfo[nosessionhash]) {
$nosessionhashchecked="checked";
$nosessionhashnotchecked="";

eval("\$qremailoption = \"".gettemplate("modifyoptions_qremail")."\";");

I do see that in my browser, down at the bottom that when the page is loading it pops up a DONE BUT WITH ERRORS mess. That is done in the status bar above my start button.

[yesfans]

This one I dont't get, why the errors do not happen to me.

[Erwin]

You can search this thread using the search box at the bottom right corner.

Runtime errors mean that there is a Javascript error. The javascript in the quickreply template is to do with counting the max number of characters. Make sure you copied and pasted it correctly.

[yesfans]

I looked over my code and repasted and appears to be working now, THANKS!!!!!! This site is GREAT!

[yesfans]

I didnt see the SEARCH THIS THREAD option, yet another I need to add to my site!

[someone2]

I have found out that the rating system (rate this thread) on most boards is not used a lot, because most people use the quickreply box to reply, and are too lazy to rate since it requires an extra click and page reload.

Can someone implement a rate dropdownbox next to the quickreply 'submit reply' button? That way, a rating takes place while quickly replying, and people will use it more often, and the rating featuring will finally find it's success :bunny: .

[avengingangel]

I just moved my vbulletin to another server.
ALL is working fine except the Quick Reply box...
I keep getting this message when I click the submit reply button :
"No thread specified. If you followed a valid link........."

I'm running V2.2.8 and it was working fine on the other server...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

[avengingangel]

Figured out the problem.... The temp directory for uploads wasn't properly defined and that's what was causing the problems :)

[KelteN]

Is there anyway to get the smilie table in the quick reply?
