Any chance this will be available for VB4?
Does anyone know an alternative?
Especially looking for the flashing PM notification box.

I would be most interested to hear if there is any possible solution to the quick-reply-all issue that has been mentioned above. This is an excellent, dare I say, indispensable mod but I have had a couple of instances recently where the reply-all has been inadvertently used by members from a message originally cc'd around and which has caused some rather unfortunate "politics".

Is it possible to turn quick reply off in PMs only and is that a work around to this problem - ie "Reply" itself works as expected (reply only to immediate last sender) but quick reply works like "reply-to-all" in the header ?

Love your work Cyb; hope you are still able to be supporting this excellent product of yours!

Respectfully,
Will

First step to improve this slightly - I have put a warning up in the template which tells users that PM Quick Reply is a Reply-To-All...

The template is pm_showpm

I've reproduced it here with the small text amendment I made in red.

Code:

<if condition="$show['quickreply']">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
    <tr>
        <td class="tcat">
            <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('pm_quickreply')"><img id="collapseimg_pm_quickreply" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_pm_quickreply].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
            $vbphrase[quick_reply]-to-all: $pm[recipients] -----> ATTENTION: use normal reply (above) to reply to sender only!!
        </td>
    </tr>
</thead>

This is only the quickreply section - I have added $pm[recipients] to show who its going to... That may include the hint for how to fix this. I'll work on it.

This appears to be a fix; I respectfully submit a work around for those of you wanting it for this awesome mod of Cyb's - apologies to Cyb for the presumption to "fix" his mod this way before he even gets a chance to reply!

Go to the pm_showpm template and simply change the formation of the recipients in the quickreply block from:

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="$pm[recipients]" />

to

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="$pm[fromusername]" />

I have tested this and it works; I cannot see any possible issues but please accept that this is only a quick fix and not something that Cyb has in any way endorsed - nor would he solve it this way.

I just wanted a quick work around that might help people out in the interim, still hoping that the original author can suggest an endorsed method!

Oh, don't forget to change the text from the post above if you decide to make the change in this one!

I am now just using:

Code:

$vbphrase[quick_reply] to $pm[fromusername] only.  Use Reply-To-All in recipients list to reply to all.

If you have the Legacy post-bit option enabled i found this broke the layout in the PM system,, this was a simple work-around though in the "Legacy Postbit Option" plugin. i added the following:

PHP Code:


			
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'private') 

{ 

    $vbulletin->options['legacypostbit'] = 0;

}

I'm late to the game here, but just wanted to say this post solved my issues with this plugin. I had quickly disabled and left it for a month or two until I just now saw this reply. I don't know how I missed it before, I thought I read all replies hoping for a fix.

Obviously it would be best to have to have users consciously click "reply to all" to use the feature. I can only imagine the damage that could be done with all the CCing that goes on with mods and users to me and back.

So, I've used this fix, then changed it so that if there are multiple recipients, the quick reply title text changes.

From:

Code:

$vbphrase[quick_reply]

To:

Code:

$vbphrase[quick_reply] <if condition="$ccrecipients"> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Replies to sender ONLY. If replying to multiple recipients, use "Reply to All" link above.</if>

..yeah yeah, not best way to center, works for me. Cheers!
