Go into development mode in your browser (I prefer firefox for this but google chrome works fine). Run the page and check for browser errors. If you have never done this, then it will be a big step forward for you. If you have, then maybe this explanation will help someone else. It is pretty hard to run a board without being able to debug JavaScript. Unless of course you never add anything to the default product. Then vb works out of the box most of the time

I will look this over hopefully in the next couple of days. I can always get called away on a business trip. The concept is a pretty simple idea, but lots of things can go wrong. I could use something like this on my daughters board.

Thanks again tbworld. When you mentioned using another browser it made me wonder what it would look like on my phone. When I looked at it I saw that for some reason the hack is trying to display two of the same button, one on top of the other. I'll try and post a screenshot of it later.

So at least now I know more than I did before. I'll try it on firefox too.

Here is a screenshot. I re-named the button from the hack "Auto Quote" and the regular quote button "Manual Quote". You can clearly see two copies of Auto Quote in the screenshot. Now I just need to find out why.

OK I think using tbworld's suggestion I have been able to find the problem (THANKS again tbworld :up: ).

The error console is saying that an image is missing, yet no image was provided with the download. It is called trans_40b.png.

You can find a copy of that image here:

http://www.sega-16.com/forum/images/buttons/

Install it to your buttons folder and you should be golden.

Other than the 'new line' feature not working, everything else is fine on 4.2.1.


Also, if anyone wants to learn how to search for javascript errors like this with their browser, I found a great tutorial here;

When I get a chance I will take a look at that. Should not be too hard to fix. If I don't get back to you... bug me about it.

No need. I completed it today (see screenshot).

If you can look into why the 'new line' feature doesn't work though, that would be great.

Does anyone know what code to change to make this open up advanced reply instead of quick reply?

Appreciate any help.

working fine for 4.2.2
