Disable Quick Reply and use Advanced Editor?

[Wilfred1]

Due to another vb developers stuff up to make life hard for the support people and the few vb users that are left, what I have done is added an Adv Reply button to the post footer:

In your postbit_legacy template look for:

<a id="qr_{vb:raw post.postid}" class='quickreply'  href="{vb:raw post.replylink}" rel="nofollow"><img  id="replyimg_{vb:raw post.postid}" src="{vb:raw vboptions.cleargifurl}"  alt="{vb:rawphrase quick_reply_to_this_message}" /> {vb:rawphrase  reply}</a> 
                    <span  class="seperator">&nbsp;</span>
                    </vb:if>

Straight after that add this:

<vb:if condition="$show['quickreply'] AND  !$show['threadedmode']">
                        <a class='quickreply'  href="newreply.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}p={vb:raw  post.postid}&amp;noquote=1" rel="nofollow"><img  id="replyimg_{vb:raw post.postid}" src="{vb:raw vboptions.cleargifurl}"  alt="Advanced reply" /> Adv {vb:rawphrase reply}</a>
                        <span  class="seperator">&nbsp;</span>
                    </vb:if>

I also added the word "Quick" just before the (vb:rawphrase reply) in the first block of code above to make it clear for the user what reply they are going to.

Hope this helps
