Post Subject/Title in Quick Reply

[speedway]

Has anyone managed to put the subject/title onto Quick Reply? I have it on my VB 2.x site but can't seem to get it working on VB 3.

Adding this, from newreply, doesn't seem to work


<tr>
<td class="alt2"><b>Post subject:</b></td>
<td class="alt2"><input type="text" class="bginput" name="title" value="$title" size="40" maxlength="85" tabindex="1" /> <span class="smallfont">(Optional)</span></td>
</tr>

So you want the Post Subject to appear on the category bar of Quick Reply? Please elaborate. :)

That is correct. On my current 2.3.0 forums I added the Post Subject to the Quick Reply form (see attached pic). I am looking to do that in VB3 but the subject doesn't seem to be flowing through to newreply.php.

I am sure that I didn't do any hacking so I was wondering if anyone else has tried it in VB3.

In showthread_quickreply find this:

<td class="tcat" colspan="2" align="center"><b>Quick Reply</b></td>

Replace with this:

<td class="tcat" colspan="2" align="center"><b>Quick Reply - $thread[title]</b></td>

Tested and worked for me.

Thanks Tony

But I think you have misunderstood. I don't want the current thread title in the Quick Reply title. I want to add the ability for the user to enter a title/subject when entering a quick reply, as demonstrated by the image attached in my previous post. That image is from a working 2.3.0 install and the post subject is working.

I'll take another look at the VB3 way of doing things. If I find it, i'll post it.

Ahh, I see sorry about that.

I wouldn't be too sure if that was a temp mod or a hack.
