Finally! Excellent! I'll have to wait for the permission based version though, as I only want this for moderators and up. Any timeframe for the additional features?

I beleive its very usefull addon.
It may sound u strange but, is it also possible to use it in newthread template as well ?
Why am i asking this ? For all movie reviews, we use the same template. Then we edit this template with the movie details we gonna post. So this kind of addon would make our job much easier, if we could choose the template (there are 4 different templates) from the selection box...
Thanks in advance

I'll aim to do this next, probably early next week, depends on whether I encounter any glitches.

I'll be integrating vB_editor after I've added the usergroup permissions.

Good idea I'll look at adding that as optional extra

Thanks, very much appreciated.

I think I can code this myself, but asking never hurts: would you please look into integrating this within the infraction system? (if PM's are required, like we do). I believe the correct template is userinfraction, but I'm not really sure , since I only see a reference to $messagearea. Integration with the infraction system would be most helpful for us :up:

Do you accept donations?

You might want to look at the Stencil Hack if you only need one template per forum.

This looks nice, bananalive! I'll be waiting for the permission based one (although I imagine if I only want it for mods/admins I could add the conditionals myself?).

I agree, it`s a very useful mod. If you want it for moderators, am I right when I assume the mod also works for private messages?

all the best,
