Yes don't forget to click where appropriate.

Just one comment on this one, once you edit a post, the host name is messed up. Any chance, we can also edit this part?

Never heard of that one. What do you mean?

This is a great hack. I used without problems, until yesterday. It is conflicting with another great hack just released and on its way to become a major hack: Quickclip.

The problem is at newpost_process or newpost_complete hook location. Since Adv Editing verifies only for quickreply, when quickclip tries to post, we get a vb error message saying that no username was specified.

Is there a way for Adv Edit not to monopolize that location? I am posting here because Adv Editing will eventually prevent other hacks from using that hook location.

Technically, there is no way. Adv. Editing Options have to use vBulletin's datamanager, which means that if there is no username, the system thinks that there is no username, and everything else works accordingly. However, other hacks can probably work around that problem - but that is a question that needs to be asked in the thread of a problematic hack. Sorry, but I cannot help you here.

P.S. Why would you want to post quickclips with no valid username, anyway?

Quickclip uses a username. Adv editing allows the bypass for quickreply only. So when quickclip posts, Adv Editing thinks there are no username.

OK, since I want to keep your nice hack, I will make a mental note for that and tweak any other would_want_to_use that process hack, although the tweak to allow other hacks should be in yours.

So once quickclip uses the username, that username is no more in the system?

edit: where exactly does quickclip post from?

With quickclip, every allowed user create their own set of "canned" responses. It displays a small form below quickreply where you select your preset response to automatically post it.

So like, if I only use custom username if it was specified, will that solve the problem?

??? you loose me here. Quickclip uses normal username and permissions system. I believe each user has their own space in db to store their responses.
