Frequently Asked Questions.

Q. Why do I need such a thing, you ask?

A. Some admins see no reason to quote the first/last post in the thread, as you are most likely replying to that post. Plus someone asked for the mod, and it was easy enough, so I threw it together.

Thanks ozzy!

Download, installed, voted 5 stars, nominated for MOTM.

This is a MOD I've wanted for a long time. Way to many novice (and some not so novice) members habitually use the Reply with Quote button when replying to the last post. Besides being annoying as a Forum Administrator, it unnecessarily consumes space on our server.

Keep it up. I always take the time to look at your MODs to see if our Forum would benefit from using them.

Glad you like it, and thanks for rating, nominating and marking as installed.

I'd like to ask a favor. Can you tweak this MOD so it includes an option to identify members by userid?

As I see it, the tweaked MOD would allow for enabling by Usergroup or Userid (not both). In most cases, it's individuals who abuse or don't know how to use properly, the Reply With Quote. Enabling only by Usergroups casts a very wide net.

Thank you.

Sure, but it will be either or, meaning you can set it by usergroups, but also add a userid, of a member that may not be in the selected usergroup.
