QuickReply addon: choose destination after posting · **Released**: 10-06-2002

Here is a very simple hack that allows your users to choose where they want to be redirected to after posting a reply via QuickReply. I made this because I don't think it's truly quick unless you have the option to go back to the forum or main index. Screenshot is here.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1 - newreply.php

Find:

PHP Code:


			
      if ($visible) {

        $goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid#post$postid";

      } else {

        $goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";

      }

Replace with:

PHP Code:


			
      if ($visible && !$returntowhere) {

        $goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid#post$postid";

      } else {

        if ($returntowhere=="forumhome") {

          $goto="index.php?s=$session[sessionhash]";

        } elseif ($returntowhere=="thread") {

          $goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$postid#post$postid";

        } else {

          $goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";

        }

      }

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 2 - Template: showthread_replybox

Find:

Code:

		</tr>
		</table>
	</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>

Replace with:

Code:

		</tr>
		</table>
	</td>
</tr>
<tr><td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" valign="top"><normalfont><b>Return to:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><select name="returntowhere" class="bginput"><option value="thread" selected>this thread</option><option value="forumdisplay">this forum</option><option value="forumhome">$bbtitle home</option></select><br><smallfont>After submitting reply, where do you want to go?</smallfont></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3 - Template: redirect_postthanks

Find:

Code:

You will now be taken to your post.

Replace with:

Code:

You will now be taken to your post or selected destination.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
