how to move QUOTE and EDIT buttons?

[kurti]

hi,
i would like to remove the "multiquote" and "quick reply" buttons
and move the "edit" & "quote" buttons up like on this photoshopped pic:


this must be done in the SHOWTHREAD template, right?
does anyone have some instructions please...
i know xhmtl and css... but no javascript and php
so its a little complecated for me.

It gets done in the postbit_legacy template.

First, copy and save your postbit_legacy template to a text file.

I'm not sure, but I think you want to find this whole chunk of code (this is from 3.8, so yours may be slightly different):

        <!-- controls -->
        <if condition="$post['editlink']">
            <img style="display: none" id="progress_$postid" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/progress.gif" alt="$vbphrase[loading_editor_please_wait]" />
            <a href="$post[editlink]" name="vB::QuickEdit::$post[postid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/edit.gif" alt="$vbphrase[edit_delete_message]" border="0" /></a>
        </if>
        <if condition="$post['forwardlink']">
            <a href="$post[forwardlink]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/forward.gif" alt="$vbphrase[forward_message]" border="0" /></a>
        </if>
        <if condition="$post['replylink']">
            <a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/<if condition="$post['forwardlink']">reply_small<else />quote</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
        </if>
        <if condition="$show['multiquote_post']">
            <a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow" onclick="return false"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/multiquote_<if condition="$show['multiquote_selected']">on<else />off</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[multi_quote_this_message]" border="0" id="mq_$post[postid]" /></a>
        </if>
        <if condition="$show['quickreply'] AND !$show['threadedmode']">
            <a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow" id="qr_$post[postid]" onclick="return false"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/quickreply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[quick_reply_to_this_message]" border="0" /></a>
        </if>

Copy it, move it into this area, then delete the original:

        $template_hook[postbit_messagearea_start]
            <div class="smallfont" style="align:right;">
                put all the code from above in here
            </div>
        <if condition="$show['messageicon'] OR $post['title']">
            <!-- icon and title -->
            <div class="smallfont" style="align:left;">
                <if condition="$show['messageicon']"><img class="inlineimg" src="$post[iconpath]" alt="$post[icontitle]" border="0" /></if>
                <if condition="$post['title']"><strong>$post[title]</strong></if>
            </div>
            <!-- / icon and title -->
        </if>
            <hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; background-color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />

(I moved the <hr> to outside the condition, you will need to do that also.) This is NOT tested. If it doesn't work, replace with the original code.

hi lynne,
thanks!
its the correct parts to move...
but when done it needs a lot more changes
to make it usefull. i guess ill leave it like it was for now.
