ok heres a fun challenge but i think i need a help in it...

to start i wrapped if conditionals around the new thread buttons to hide them for the forum using the easyforms....then as blind-eddie suggested i added back my own button to force topic starting thru the forms, again with if conditionals....perfectly, good stuff ;P

then heres the fun part.....ok so there is a form#2 which is meant to be posted inside the topic started by form #1....ive coded that perfectly as well....however! i want to ADD a button by "post reply" to give an option to reply by "form in thread" or a normal reply....

simple enough right?

<vb:if condition="$threadid == 201365701"><a href="https://www.mysite.com/forums/forms.php?do=form&fid=9" rel="nofollow" class="newcontent_textcontrol" id="formreplylink_bottom"><span><i class="material-icons">&#xE0D8;</i></span>REPLY WITH FORM</a></vb:if>

haha well it works but that is no solution.....

what i need is......

1.if conditional for the button to only display for the topic author
2.and for button to only show in the threads of that forum....rather than how i manually entered the threadid in the above example....(i tried using forumid instead, like the thread starting buttons, but it didnt work for this)

thats easy for you alien brain coders?

thanks
