This needs to be standard for one cause its annoying erasing the quoted stuff after you have been pming someone back and forth for awhile

exactly

or sometimes u just dont want to quote

also a nice big "NEW PM button would be nice, some new members that arent use to using the PM system dont see the "send a PM" link

I have a template edit on vB.com for just adding a reply button (send a new pm to them, no title, no quotes)

[Keyser S?ze]

Its a simple template edit

http://www.yoursite.com/forum/private.php?do=newpm&userid=$post[userid]

and if you only want it to show on private.php you add a conditional

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == private"> </if>

See Quote options in thread and private message replies.

im sorry maybe im just not smart enough but that explination just doesnt make me understand what i need to do to add a reply button in the private messages

i dont want to change anything to the postbit (when i say that i mean, im perfectly happy with the way it is set up now as it is), its just the private messages i want a reply button, i do however relize that the private message system is run partially off the postbit

but what im not sur eof is what to change where or add there, u see

thanks

You can also do it like this!

Open 'private.php'

FIND THIS!

				if ($_REQUEST['stripquote'])
				{
					$pagetext = strip_quotes($pm['message']);
				}
				else
				{
					// this is now the default behavior -- leave quotes, like vB2
					$pagetext = $pm['message'];
				}
				$pagetext = trim(htmlspecialchars_uni($pagetext));

				eval('$pm[message] = "' . fetch_template('newpost_quote', 1, 0) . '";');

REPLACE WITH

				if ( empty ( $_REQUEST['noquote'] ) )
				{
					if ($_REQUEST['stripquote'])
					{
						$pagetext = strip_quotes($pm['message']);
					}
					else
					{
						// this is now the default behavior -- leave quotes, like vB2
						$pagetext = $pm['message'];
					}
					$pagetext = trim(htmlspecialchars_uni($pagetext));

					eval('$pm[message] = "' . fetch_template('newpost_quote', 1, 0) . '";');
				}
				else
				{
					$pm[message] = '';
				}

Go to templates => 'postbit' and 'postbit_legacy' (1) edit (SAME EDIT) each template!

FIND THIS!

			<if condition="$post['replylink']">
				<a href="$post[replylink]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/<if condition="$post['forwardlink']">reply_small<else />quote</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
			</if>

REPLACE WITH

			<if condition="$post['replylink']">
			<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT=='private'">
				<a href="$post[replylink]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/quote.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
				<a href="$post[replylink]&amp;noquote=1"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply_small.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_to_private_message]" border="0" /></a>
			<else />
				<a href="$post[replylink]"><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>

This allows for reply to PM with quote and reply to PM no message, but will load the title and who you are replying too!
