The hack works fine. I just wish it was a full plugin, so I didn't have to edit files again when its time to update my board.

Unfortunately, that is not possible.
I have minimized file edits, but there were not enough hook for each of the occasions :(

I did find one small problem. If someone uses the the hide hack so you have to reply to see the content, it wont open if you use quick reply. You have to refresh the page. Is there a way to fix this?

It should disable AJAX quick reply if you have done the showthread_quickreply template change correctly.

I did it right, I guess I'll have to turn off quick reply, that sucks, I really liked that feature.

And there is a showthread template change not a showthread quickreply template change. At least not in the hack you sent me.

Should I just turn off quickreply? Or is there something I'm doing wrong?

No, turn off ajax quick reply using vbulletin options.

Hmmm for some reason the switch editor mode works in IE but not in firefox. And now that I look further I'm having a lot of problems in firefox.

What kinds of problems?

In firefox, it wont let me use any of the icons in the editor when I'm trying to post, and when I post long topics its all bunch together, even if I start a paragraph.
