Quick Quote II -Quote posts instantly in your Quick Reply box

Hi,

This is not an update to my other Quick Qoute hack. The other hack is a stand alone feature which works with or without the Quick Reply box.. This one does not..

To use this hack you MUST already have the Quick Reply box hack installed.

What does it do? This hack will allow you to instantly quote any post or multiple posts in your Quick Reply Box.

How it works: In the upper righthand corner of each post will be a small "QuickQoute" checkbox.. When you click it the text from that post and the original poster's username will automatically be inserted into your Quick Reply box with quote tags around it.

Improvements over the other "Quote Selected" add-on:

• Works with all browsers
• You can quote multiple posts
• No need to highlight any text. Posts are quoted instantly.
• Includes original poster's username

Very easy to install.. 1 file edit, 1 template edit, and 1 template to add.

Works with vB versions 2.2.X and 2.3.X.

If you find this hack useful please click install.

Thats the only difference though

That shouldn't make any difference. If you have a mozilla browser you can see what the exact error message is. If you have it, go to a thread and click quickquote, then click tools + web development + javascript console and it'll tell you the exact error.

What browser are you using btw? Also, are you using the hack instructions from the first post in this thread?

I can't think of anything that would cause a javascript error other than the form names not matching.

Just for the heck of it, try this:

In your quickquote template find this:

<A HREF="#vbform"><smallfont>QuickQuote</smallfont></A><input type="checkbox" onclick="document.vbform.message.value = document.vbform.message.value + document.p$post[postid].elements[0].value">

replace it with this:

<A HREF="#vbform"><smallfont>QuickQuote</smallfont></A><input type="checkbox" onclick="document.vbform.message.value = document.vbform.message.value + document.p$post[postid].message.value">

[Larry@IOG]

That did not work either

Also I am using IE6 but it is not working for any of my members

Larry,
I just logged into your site and its working fine for me. I clicked the "QuickQuote" checkbox and the quoted text was instantly inserted into the quick reply box. Also, I didn't get any errors (using IE 6.0).

If you have more than one template set you'll need to add the code to them aswell.

For the record, this mod works 100% fine with 2.3.0


Thanks for the "gap" fix Velocd, it works a treat
I now have this mod running EXACTLY how I've wanted it for a long time..


Apologies to those that have PM'd me over the last 5 days asking how I changed the checkbox into an image, I haven't been around and forgot to set my status to Away.. . Instructions have been attached.

For the image addon to work, you have to also install the anchor addon. I can write up some seperate instructions if you want a version of the image addon to work without the anchor..

Please help me with that code, Oblivion Knigh ! I wanted the image version working for my site.

Thank you

Try this.. It's untested, but it should work..

[PurpleCow]

Oblivion Knight - I tried the new text file instructions. But, no its not working again . This is what happens :

1. When i click on the image that appears, the page just refreshes. When i click on the image again, it gives me javascript errors in the status bar and this time, it doesn't refresh at all.

But nothing towards the required effect happens, that is to quote.

Thanks for your help again.

Cheers
