Alan, is there a way to have the drop down for the clips to be moved to the postbit (maybe under the username) and when you pick a clip, have it automatically bring up the new reply with the clip already posted into it?

Hi Boofo,

Not at the moment I'm afraid. Something along those lines was always on my todo list, but I'm afraid I haven't had a chance to look into it recently.

Thanks,
Alan.

Right now I have a link in the postbit that will do that but a drop down with many links in it would be better. I can send you what I have if that would help at all.

Would you want the message your replying to to be quoted in the reply?

That might not be a bad idea. Maybe an option to turn that off and on? ;)

Then I'm not sure what the difference will be to how it currently works :)

Is it just that you want to edit the reply before posting it?

Yes, It would be nice to have that option. All it would mean is that once I click one of the items in the drop, it would bring up the new reply with that item already in the message. Most often, I would click submit and it would be sent. But having the option to edit it first is always a good idea. Basically just having the drop down in the posbit would be the only real difference I guess. ;)

I'm got some work to do on another mod first, but when that's done, I'll take a look at adding a "Reply with Quickclip" dropdown to each post as well as having one at the bottom, as well as adding an option to edit the reply before posting it.

If I haven't done it in a couple of weeks, remind me because I'll have forgotten :)

Thanks,
Alan.

No problem, sir. I'll see what I can come up with in the meantime. If I get anything on it, I will get the changes to you so you can add them. ;)

Alan,
I had contracted a dev here to build something very similar to this for me last year, it works on java script which allows you to insert the responses into the wysiwyg & title of the message, thus allowing you to edit it before sending or allowing you to append another response after the first. It also worked on usernotes, reputation, and send email (admincp) in addition to posts, threads, and PMs.

Who knows- it may assist in developing this hack, I am sure the dev we worked with wouldn't have a problem with it, so long as he were acknowledged in the event some of his code ended up being used.

If you're interested in checking out the code, please PM me. :)

Alan:

The editor is displaying the reply box weird.

I have attached the file what I am talking about.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Parker

Antivirus: Thanks, I may take you up on that offer :)

Parker: If you let me know your forum URL I will take a look. I've never seen that before.

Thanks,
Alan.

Love it.Easy/Quick install, Works great!;)
Great job!!

Is there any way to show the quick clip as the full clip made like a thread instead of a lil preview like it is?

Hi Alan

Reminder... as requested... :)

I'd love to see the option of previewing the clip before submitting it. This would be a huge benefit to the hack as it would allow generic team clips to be created that could then be used by the entire support team and amended accordingly to suit the reason for posting.

Thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten all about it :)

I'll try and start work on it again next week.

Thanks,
Alan.

Excellent Alan, thanks. This will certainly be a great enhancement to QC.

a great hack for my poetry site. its like a macro for members who want to respond quick!!!! or can't think of the words to use...

Any ideas why following the use of a QuickClip I appear to get subscribed to a thread?

Any help appreciated :)

Don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but when I have the quickclip installed, deleting of PMs doesn't work properly. When you're in the showpm (viewing a pm), and tick the box delete, and delete this message, it simply goes back to the inbox, without deleting the pm!

If I remove the code you're supposed to add in the template showpm, it works again.

Help would be appreciated!

I have experienced this same behavior as well

Its almost like a Big smiley :P

I don't think that has anything to do with this hack. Anytime you post in a thread you get subscribed unless you turn it off in your profile.

Even with Automatic Thread Subscriptions set to off in settings? I don't believe it's that, but thanks for suggesting it :)

Is anyone using QuickClip with Vb 3.6? I will be upgrading to 3.6 soon and just wanted to hear any feedback from anyone using this with 3.6. I don't expect it would cause any problems, but you never know, right? ;)

Dexter...

I have done some quick testing after upgrading a mirror test board and it seems to function just fine.

Thanks. I upgraded a week ago and only just now did the template edits for this. Seems to work fine in 3.6, except that when I am viewing the quickclip.php page, the control panel menu on the left side is a bit messed up, some blank table rows. It seems some of the menu locations are using old phrase variables that 3.6 does not recognize, so some menu items are missing.

Minor inconvenience, once I finish in quickclip.php I can just go back to the main control panel page and everything is there. Maybe I'll see if I can edit the quickclip.php page to have the right items in the menu.

Dexter...

incredible hack

my admins are loving it already :-)

works perfect with 3.60, no problems at all.

wow this is the one i been looking for week ...finally ..I found it here .

Iam going to try it tonight .

Thanks /

I installed this on VB 3.6.2

If you answer a thread using Quickclip you cannot answer the thread with quickclip and NOT your signature again.
for example if you have to answer a thread with two quickclips.

After using replying with the first quickclip the small checkbox for the signature is grey and cannot be changed.

This is the fist bug I have seen in the actual version.

Second bug is the Create Quickclip Template. Its on old template not usable in firefox cause the smiliebox is to big.

Can someone fix those two issues please?

I would like this for 3.6 bump

Me too. Can anybody help?

For step number 3 in the directions I have like 4 instances for that text where do I put the additional text?


***Reserved for install once misunderstanding with install instructions are resolved****

After installing this very useful fine add on. I lost some of my options in the cp

Can someone help me get those options back in the tool bar on the right A title is missing at the top and like 5 bars are empty
Thank you

Very nice!! 3.6.4 compatible?

Confirmed, this is working in 3.6.5.

/me clicks installed.

No its not. You can install it and use it but it still has bugs.
See my old text

Working and "bug free" are two different things.

Installed on 3.6.4 - we will see how it does!!
