Here is a very simple hack that allows your users to choose where they want to be redirected to after posting a reply via QuickReply. I made this because I don't think it's truly quick unless you have the option to go back to the forum or main index. Screenshot is here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?action=showpost&postid=307617).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1 - newreply.php

Find:

if ($visible) {
$goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid#post$postid";
} else {
$goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";
}


Replace with:

if ($visible && !$returntowhere) {
$goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid#post$postid";
} else {
if ($returntowhere=="forumhome") {
$goto="index.php?s=$session[sessionhash]";
} elseif ($returntowhere=="thread") {
$goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid#post$postid";
} else {
$goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";
}
}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 2 - Template: showthread_replybox

Find:

</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>


Replace with:

</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" valign="top"><normalfont><b>Return to:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><select name="returntowhere" class="bginput"><option value="thread" selected>this thread</option><option value="forumdisplay">this forum</option><option value="forumhome">$bbtitle home</option></select><br><smallfont>After submitting reply, where do you want to go?</smallfont></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3 - Template: redirect_postthanks

Find:
You will now be taken to your post.

Replace with:
You will now be taken to your post or selected destination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Done! Please click install if you use this.

If you would like to use this on your regular post reply page as well, click here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?s=&postid=321822&action=showpost) for instructions.

Has this been installed by anyone who is using Spellcheck for their quickreply?

Mine won't work, seems the other embedded forms are causing problems with this one.... :(

double-check that you've done everything correctly. there is a similar code in newreply.php that is pretty much exactly the same except for one little variable. (hint: search for the FIRST line of the code you have to replace in WordPad.)

if that still doesn't work, let me know.

Probably because :

a.) You havent installed FireFly's Quick Reply Box hack
b.) You arent looking in the "custom templates" part of the templates;)

Does this conflict with Firefly's hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26734) to return to forum after a regular reply (instead of a quick reply)? I want to give users the option to return to forum after either a quick reply or a regular reply. Thanks.

actually, this could be used with the regular reply too...just put the code that's supposed to go in showthread_replybox in showthread instead...if you need more specific instructions, let me know.

i installed this one....nice addon indeed.

except i swithced mine so the default selection is to go back to the forums.

actually, this could be used with the regular reply too...just put the code that's supposed to go in showthread_replybox in showthread instead...if you need more specific instructions, let me know.

wouldnt that be "new reply" and "new thread" instead of in"showthread_replybox"?

in either case, can you give more specific instructions please?

thanks

err...yeah, i made a typo. anyway:

1) find this in template "newreply":

</tr>
$attachmentoption
$threadratingoption
</table>
</td></tr></table>


Replace with:

</tr>
$attachmentoption
$threadratingoption
<tr><td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" valign="top"><normalfont><b>Return to:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><select name="returntowhere" class="bginput"><option value="thread" selected>this thread</option><option value="forumdisplay">this forum</option><option value="forumhome">$bbtitle home</option></select><br><smallfont>After submitting reply, where do you want to go?</smallfont></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>


Done!
