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.

Now make me a quote button.

Come on, it would be nice, just the same as the VB code button does, but instead of it looking like a button, it would be good as just a text link. Then when people click it, it brings up a field thing just like the VB code button does and then you paste whoever you are quoting in there.

If you are such a great hacker you will do this little thing. heheh

excellent hack! installed it, works great!

Interesting idea. hmm vb3, ok. It won't be a user option though, only an admin option to enable/disable.

cheerz chen ... lovely hack

For cyrus:
Replace:

if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postuserid']) and (!$getperms['canviewothers'] or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) {
	$replybox='';
} elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown'] and $bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuserid'])) {
	$replybox='';
} elseif (!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopenclose')) {
	$replybox='';
} else {
	$textareacols = gettextareawidth();
	eval("\$replybox = \"".gettemplate('showthread_replybox')."\";");
}

with:

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();
eval("\$replybox = \"".gettemplate('showthread_replybox')."\";");

Sorry. What do you mean with 'active' ? :noid:
I saw FF correction and seems with many many less checks before displaying the box...
:stupid:
Thnx

Please firefly. Just two text buttons, it will take you like 4 minutes or less.
