Psionic Vision,

ok, now i got it. sorry for me being stupid. :)

Psionic Vision,

got it working. have an issue though: when editor is set to wysiwyg mode, using either "insert name" or "quick quote" functions produces an extra line break before inserted text. i took a look at your code and this behaviour seems to be expected as you check length of existing editor contents before inserting your own but somehow it doesn't work as expected with wysiwyg mode. in simple editor mode it works ok and only inserts extra line break when there is already some content in editor field. can you check this please?

also i have a feature request of a sorts: can you make your script to set focus on editor field after inserting either quote or username? that would be logical i think, usually i want to start writing my message immediately after quoting or addressing someone. i tried to append "this.focus()" call after "this.set_editor_contents()" but somehow it doesn't work. sorry i'm no javascript expert...

That is a known bug. In WYSIWYG, there's some hidden formatting that causes the message length function to report a random non-zero number when the message area is empty - and I don't know how to work around the problem at this time.

A lot of people want to quote multiple things before starting to type a reply. If the focus kept jumping to message area every time, that would be very annoying to those people.

ok then, i'll have to advise my users not to use wysiwyg mode for quick reply.

i got your point but my users got used to phpbb behaviour and it focused on message area after clicking on username. i myself find it convenient too. is it possible to make it configurable? if not and you don't want to include this feature in your mod, can you advise me on how to do it then? i have no trouble running customized mods. :)

Psionic Vision,

never mind that, i already figured it out myself.

Psionic Vision,

also i think it would do a lot of good to extract all html code from your postbit_factory plugin into separate template. this way it'd be much easier to change visual appearance of postbit.

I could make it customizable on a per-user basis...

Thank you for the suggestion.

yes, that would be very helpful.

well, upon closer look i turned this plugin off and made manual changes to my templates. it isn't that helpful either way 'cause it worked for vanilla postbit template but didn't work for customized postbit_legacy template, it didn't insert "quick quote" button. most probably it just couldn't find the piece of text that you chose as a placeholder for inserting new button. adding code from that plugin to the template worked like charm.

i'm using tech forum templates, the button don't show :(
and yes.. i upload the quickquote.gif :)

thanks.... great mod :)

nevermind..
