[AddOn] Useful Additions For Quickreply (and normal reply page)

HACK: [AddOn] Useful Additions to QuickReply box & Normal Reply page
BY: KuraFire [www.kurafire.com]
REQUESTED BY: My left brainhalf. *gives credit*
DESCRIPTION: Puts several small additions to the QuickReply box, as well as some to the normal Reply page.
DIFFICULTY: Medium
INSTALL-TIME: 10-15 minutes + time for FireFly/Chen's QuickReply box if you haven't installed that yet
STEPS: 7

!! NOTE: instructions updated on 22:19 CET* - make sure to clear your cache and re-download if you downloaded it already!

(* = see edit of this post timestamp for your own time)

EXTENDED DESCRIPTION:
What this hack do is simple: it adds a Signature checkbox, E-mail notification checkbox, and a Return-to dropdown box to your Quick Reply box (hack by FireFly). For Admins and Mods, it also adds two checkboxes: Close thread, and Stick thread (so that you can stick/unstick & close/open threads when you make a reply).
On the normal Reply page, it adds the same stuff minus Signature and E-mail checkboxes, of course (as they are already there ).


Files to hack: newreply.php, showthread.php
Templates to mod: showthread_replybox*, newreply, newpost_attachment


Instructions are in the Attachment

Installed and working perfectly first time (with 2.2.6). Thankyou, great hack

<EdiT>
I've changed the template around a bit. Take a look at the template for changes.
I've also added a "New Posts" option to the Return To: select box. A lot of my members view posts from the new posts page, so found this most useful.

Tomorrow, I'm probably going to use the hack so that it works with editing posts as well.
If I get the time, or can be bothered, I might run up a quick instructions.txt for the changes I've made

[Hwulex]

I received an email requesting the code that I altered to enable "Return To New Posts' option, so here it is (attached).

I may also do the editpost option later on.

okay i have a problem

my usergroups are

admin = 6
super mod = 5
mod = 30

now the problem is even after i change the occurences of usergroup == 7 to ==30

my super mods can't close or stick threads using quick reply box but my mods and admin can

some of my super mods are also assigned to mod specific forums too

I'll look into it tomorrow at work, should be fixable, no?

Don't really know what could be the problem here, though.. I probably have to
'extrapolate' the hack code and see the dependancies of the entire codeblock, those might be relevant for the problem...

but since it's 2:30 am and I have to work tomorrow, I'm gonna sleep now...

(posted now mostly to get a new notifier if anyone posts after this, or if you (Eva) post a "already fixed it, nm!" or so ^_^)

[Tony DiMera]

Sweet thanks a lot.

[KuraFire]

Eva, have you edited this line:

PHP Code:

          $modbit = ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==6 || $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==7) ? ",sticky='$stickybit',open='$openbit'" : ""; 


as well? (ie. did you add " || $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==30" ?)
