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.

Yes I do...

I also added the code you posted so that the quick reply box would be visible to the staff in closed threads and not visible to the members.

I was curious as to how I could add the Lock Topic while making reply hack, (that has been installed on normal replies) to the quick reply feature. I think all I have to do is find the code "$lock" or whatever it is and add it to the template, right?

[Admin]

Add <input type="checkbox" name="closethread" value="yes"> to the box, then if you check that box the thread will be closed.
To only show this to mods requires more hacking, so take a look at the code for that hack and apply it here.

Damnit, I ****ed up on the showthread.php file when adding the smilie function and I forgot to backup the file and now I have to download the vB software, re-edit, and re-upload. AHH! I hate double work >.<
