what vb4 is already released "Reply With Quote" ???

Yes, but my hack allow to select partially texts from few posts.
Reply With Quote - quoting total text of one post.

Thank you!

Thank you! Dziękuję :)

Thanks. This is a very useful mod. Tagged for later.

This is very interesting. Tagged for when I upgrade.

most excelent..

know quite alot of vb boards on the web that should have this mod.. :D
especially those large gamesites like turbine, funcom and ea. cause i use them.
would have ALOT time saved with this mod..

Tx, voted and rated.

Very nice, thanks & installed.

Thanks! I will install this mod once I upgrade to vB4. :)

Installed. Really like the mod. However, even with the option to have the cursor advanced to a new line after the quote, my cursor is positioned just to the right of the quote (with a space separating the two).

Other than that, excellent work!

Thanks clmazin.
On which browser?

Having trouble getting this working....selecting text, clicking link, but nothing appearing in quick reply.

thank you
is good hack

Good Mod, but a minor correction. To keep the style of the Buttons in vB 4, it has to be initial caps.

Thus "Quote selected text" should be "Quote Selected Text." I edited my installed copy, but suggest you follow suit. :)

Peace,
Gene

bravo!
excellent bit of usability, mate.

I want to add this so it shows on the right of the Report Post triangle:
At the moment it is on the left of the icons

Hm, I wonder.. is it possible to multiquote with this? So if you quoted something with this, and then select another piece of text and quote it again, will both be placed in the quick reply section or will the last quote overwrite the first?

did a quick test, and yes you can multiquote (in a sense).
when you hit the button your text is dumped into the qr editor, and the screen scrolls down to qr anchor. but you can scroll back up and repeat, and the new quote will be appended to the line in its own quote tags. possibly, if one enabled the 'use next line' option it would append the second and following quotes on separate lines.

i am also having this same issue. i have enabled the 'next line' option, but it doesnt appear to have changed anything. browser details in sig

Perfect

Seems to me the best alternative would be to have a preference as to whether the selective quoting button appears on the left, the default, or the right. What say you folks?

Peace,
Gene

i have mine set to the right of 'multi-quote', because it seemed logical.
if anyone wants to do likewise, drop it here:

Any information?
Browser, forumlink?
Doesn't working just for you or all?

Thanks. I do it ;)

If you want to add button on the right of the Report Post, you must turn off Auto-Position option and place {vb:raw wog_quick_quote_button} after Report code in postbit.
Example:

Thanks. I will check it.

It's good idea, but I can't do this by means of hooks in template.
We must do it manually.

I'm just hoping not to have to make more template changes. Whenever there's an update in the vB software, I have to go back and double check those things because the upgrade process is so damned inefficient.

Peace,
Gene

Not necessarily.
If the new version has been changed template - a message appears in the admincp "Template out of date"

It's just me so far, as I'm doing a test environment in LAMPP running off Ubuntu. Forum link PM'd.
Tested in Firefox 3.5 and Chrome.

No worries...working now...just me being a muppet and not extracting the js file properly...

I have a problem, the button is out of line, see screen shot:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/01/27.png

If i set it to either auto edit Template or I add it where I want to in the Template it is still out of line.

I'd like it to look the same as in the screen shot or the Mod:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...1&d=1262541375
In line with everything else.

Anyone else has this problem?
And fix for it?

Very nice! and great utility. Thanks WoGuziczek

hate to have to upload files for mods. please incorporate into a single plugin import.

It works fine for me, except for the next line thingie, that doesn't seem to work.

Very nice mod though, thanks.

Where did you edit it and how?

go to 'languages & phrases' > search in phrases then enter 'Quote selected text' to find the phrase to edit.

It'd be really nice if it replaced the "Reply with Quote" button whenever you selected text instead of creating a new button.
And i also get the problem where it combines multiple lines into one.
