Thanks, I've installed this.

Could only find bbcode_quote, where is blog_bbcode_quote located? Don't have the blog setup on my forums, is that why I can't find it?

Vietfancy, you did an excellent job on this. I made a custom quote symbol and colored the left border to fit my site design. I'm very happy with it and I appreciate the quality work you put into it.

Best R'gards,

Yes my friend just do as it is and forget it about blog_bbcode_quote and should work just fine

A question,

Can be use this mod with BBcode Manager?

Thanks in advance.

Bye

They appear to be 2 different modifications.

Really love this but, I have all dark styles and none of the quote images I've found look very good on the dark. I've tweaked a few but just can't get them clean looking. Would anyone just happen to have some laying around :)

Thanks for the great mod!

Fwiw, I was having trouble with all the space before the closed quote, so I tried a slightly different layout (you can see it in my attachment).

Now I don't know much about css, so my method probably isn't all that efficient. If anyone can improve on it, I'd appreciate it.

Here's my css:

Code:

.quote { 

    margin:15px 10px; 

    background: url(images/misc/q.gif) 0 0 no-repeat; 

    padding-left:25px} 

blockquote.bq { 

    font: italic 10pt verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif; 

    border-left:3px solid #ccc;  

    margin:0px; 

    padding:0 5px}  

.endquote { 

    margin:0px 10px 15px; 

    background: url(images/misc/q1.gif) 0 0 no-repeat; 

    padding-left:25px}

Here's my template:

Code:

<div style="margin:3px; margin-top:5px; <if condition="$show['iewidthfix']">width: 100%;</if>">

    <table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"> 

    <tr>

        <td><div class="quote" style="margin-bottom:2px">

            <if condition="$show['username']">

                <div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">

                    <phrase 1="$username">$vbphrase[originally_posted_by_x]</phrase>

                    <if condition="$postid"><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$postid#post$postid" rel="nofollow"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/viewpost.gif" border="0" alt="$vbphrase[view_post]"/></a></if>

                </div>

                <blockquote class="bq" style="font-style:italic">$message</blockquote>

            <else />

                <blockquote class="bq" style="font-style:italic">$message</blockquote>

            </if>

        </div>

<div class="endquote" style="margin-bottom:2px">&nbsp;</div>

</td>

    </tr>

    </table>

</div>

what's the code to put q.gif to upside right?

code
background: url(images/misc/q.gif) no-repeat up right
not works!!

Works great on 3.8.3 and the multi quotes look ok too-

pls help

jankie, did you install the css that I suggested in my earlier post, or did you only install the original code as published by the author of this thread?

And what version of vB are you using?

I'll do my best to help.

Thanks. Installed. :)

Anyone get this to work with 4.04?

Should be really great to adapt this in vb 4 :)

It will be a nice modification: background color like.... grey color? :up:

I added an additional line at the bottom in the CSS - looks cleaner and separates the quote better in my opinion - just replace the original CSS with this.

Code:

.quote { 

    margin:15px 10px; 

    background: url(images/misc/q.gif) 0 0 no-repeat; 

    padding-left:25px} 

blockquote.bq { 

    background: url(images/misc/q1.gif) no-repeat bottom right; 

    font: italic 10pt verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

    border-left:3px solid #ccc; 

    border-bottom:3px solid #ccc; 

    margin:0px; 

    padding:0 5px 5px 5px}
