New Thread Option inside actual Thread!

[smess]

I have seen this but have not found the hack for it. The newer version of Vb does not have the start new thread option once you are in a thread and viewing the posts. Is there a way to add this either at the top or the bottom of the posts?

Thanks

i dont think its enabled on vbulletin options but here is mini mod i wrote just now

open showthread.php

find :

$show['largereplybutton'] = (!$thread['isdeleted'] AND !$show['threadedmode'] AND $forum['allowposting']);

under add :

$show['largenewthreadbutton'] = (!$thread['isdeleted'] AND !$show['threadedmode'] AND $forum['allowposting']);

open templte showthread :

find :

<if condition="$show['largereplybutton']">
		<td class="smallfont"><a href="newreply.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newreply&amp;noquote=1&amp;p=$FIRSTPOSTID"><if condition="$show['closethread']"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/threadclosed.gif" alt="$vbphrase[closed_thread]" border="0" /></if></a></td>
	<else />
		<td class="smallfont">&nbsp;</td>
	</if>

Replace with :

	<if condition="$show['largereplybutton']">
		<td class="smallfont"><a href="newreply.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newreply&amp;noquote=1&amp;p=$FIRSTPOSTID"><if condition="$show['closethread']"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/threadclosed.gif" alt="$vbphrase[closed_thread]" border="0" /></if></a>
	<else />
		<td class="smallfont">&nbsp;</td>
	</if>
	<if condition="$show['largenewthreadbutton']">
		<a href="newthread.php?do=newthread&f=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[newthread]" border="0" />
				</a></td>
	<else />
		<td class="smallfont">&nbsp;</td>
	</if>

thats all

enjoy.

Yeah

In your SHOWTHREAD template

FIND

 <!-- controls above postbits -->
 <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-bottom:3px">
 <tr valign="bottom">

ADD BELOW

<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td>

FIND

<!-- controls below postbits -->
 <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">
 <tr valign="top">

ADD BELOW

<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td>

Miz,

my code says the following

$show['largereplybutton'] = (!$thread['isdeleted'] AND !$show['threadedmode'] AND $forum['allowposting']);
if (!$forum['allowposting'])
{
$SHOWQUICKREPLY = false;

where should I put the following line exactly?

$show['largenewthreadbutton'] = (!$thread['isdeleted'] AND !$show['threadedmode'] AND $forum['allowposting']);

after this line :

$show['largereplybutton'] = (!$thread['isdeleted'] AND !$show['threadedmode'] AND $forum['allowposting']);
