User can Enable/Disable Quick Reply?
 

Was thinking about this.

We have quick reply enabled on my board but trying to optimize things for the dialup users so their load times aren't as bad :)

Thought about doing something in the templates with the profilefield manager, but the quick reply is enabled via showthread.php by what I can tell.

Prolly could still use the profilefield for a yes no radio..

Any ideas? Or has anyone already hacked this in that would like to share? :)

whar are you telling that...a user can activate/deactivate the Quick Reply ?

Oooo... I'd like to be able to do that, too... I like the quick reply, but a lot of my members don't!

That should be easy for vB3. Just make a new profilefield and do a conditional in the showthtread template. Like the following:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[fieldxx] == 'yes'">
$quickreply
</if>

I've just done this if anybody needs the code for it. ;)

Boofo,

Could you post the code here? This is a great idea, and it will also be useful for many other profile options.

These conditionals are awesome! :D

Here you go! ;)

damn I thought I looked for that variable and didn't see it LOL

Thanks boofo, that'll teach me to use the damn search function ;)

What search function? I just made that code a few minutes ago. I didn't get it from vb.org. ;)

Thanks! I've already implemented it on a few things. :D

I did something similar to this for VB2 and it there was so much more involved.

You're very welcome, sir. ;)

Yes, vB3 is great for this kind of thing. I also have an option for fixed or liquid display and well as the option for postbit ot postbit_legacy template. With the conditionals and profilefields, the ideas are almost endless for what you can come up with for user options. ;)

I'm afraid I'm missing something, I can't get it to work... it's listed as field7 in the profile fields, display order 5... I should use the 7, right?
Dadgummit, I like this one, can't figure out what I'm doing wrong... :(

Relax, we'll get it working for you. ;)

Yes, use field7.

Should the quick reply be turned on, in the standard options? or off?
I got the "click for quick reply" to show up, with the code you wrote, but not the box itself...

But the quick reply link just takes you to the regular reply page... *pouting*

LOL I guess that capital "Y" was pretty important, huh? :o
**now off to find that Nosey Bugger Blocker" again**
Wonder how I'll mess that one up? :D

Oops! Minding manners!
Thanks so much for that hack... seems folks on both sides of that issue care a LOT! :o
And now out of thread, to let someone else talk... :D

LOL @ maggie. I knew you'd get it working. ;)

I'm slow, but I get there... so long as I don't throw my hands up in frustration, anyway... :D

Can I presume Boofo the OR statement is for guests?

Here is a better way of doing it.

Do what freddie says in this post:

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showp...94&postcount=5

you can then change the Left/Top texts to On/Off

and then replace this $vboptions['legacypostbit']

with $vboptions['quickreply'] .

Done. :)
