I have come up with this solution tested and working.
Make sure that your settings in the forum default editor message posting interface options are set to standard controls.
Remove this code in the following templates -newreply, newthread, newPM, editpost.
Code:
<if condition="$show['parseurl']"><div><label for="cb_parseurl"><input type="checkbox" name="parseurl" value="1" id="cb_parseurl" tabindex="1" $checked[parseurl] />$vbphrase[automatically_parse_links_in_text]</label></div></if>
This leaves 1 area that I have yet to figure out yet. If you use the quick reply function any links posted in that thread get [url] tags assigned to them.
Any help would be appreciated
