Quick Reply Box

Here's an easy one, it barely took 4 minutes to do. :china:
This hack will add a quick replying box at the bottom of all threads, only if the user has permission to reply, so when you need to reply to something real quickly you don't need to click the Post Reply button and wait for the page to load.

Instructions are in the attached .txt file, and if you want a demo... just look below.

NOTE: For the vB 2.3.2 version please see this post.

Extras:

• If you want users who have the Use Email Notification option ON, to automatically subscribe to threads they reply to with this hack, see this post.
  
• If you want to add an option for each user to turn this feature on and off, please see this post.
  
• If you want smilies in your quick reply box please see this post.

This is the version that Chen originally created...and I just got it working.

I got it working on www.runaked.com if you need to see it to believe it.

Rock on!

PHP Code:

if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
  show_nopermission();
} 


There are two of them in showthread.php. Do I replace both codes? o.o;

Your footer shows you are still using 2.3.0.

I'm having a problem finding the first part of the code in showthread.php

Am I looking in the correct place?

Show Thread Templates [expand] > showthread [change original]

Before I get to frustrated with this, maybe someone could point me in the right direction? This is my first attempt of adding a hack to my board. Thanks.

I got a bit of trouble.

The quick Reply box is at the top of the thread, can someone please help me to move it down to the bottom. Thanks.

Just look for the next chunk of code - you added it at the first instance - not the second

After 3 months of leaving my forum as is, I returned to hacking it and stalled some hacks, but hands down the best is this one
THANKS FireFly !!!

Now I have a weird Problem, I installed it tested it and as you can see it I translated it, but even when I did not make any changes the Qreply apperared in the TOP of thew page, I have broken my Skull figuring out why, I even reinstale dit and the same thing happens...any hints?

ehere is a Screen of the problem

Thanks again!

Add the quick reply variable to the bottom of the showthread template, to the second instance of where you're supposed to put it.

I have a question... I don't know if it has been answered or not as I haven't looked through the entire thread.. lol, but where it says:

1. In showthread.php find this bit of code:
// ##################################################
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and ($thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid'] or $bbuserinfo['userid']==0)) {
show_nopermission();
}

if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}
// ##################################################

I cannot find the second part in the php file. Will this work with v2.3.2?

TIA
Patricia
