Frequently Asked Questions.

Q. Why do I need such a thing, you ask?

A. Some admins see no reason to quote the first/last post in the thread, as you are most likely replying to that post. Plus someone asked for the mod, and it was easy enough, so I threw it together.

Not a problem, glad to do it.

Well, I'm still thinking about this, as I really dislike users that quote last post (and first post completely, especially very big posts).

If it is possible to affect how quote button works, to check if it is actually last post in a thread, and if it is, not to quote, if it is not, to quote.

So, all buttons are left in their places, but there's a check of posts position and quoting content, or skipping quoting altogether.

I guess this is a bit tricky, maybe even not possible.

[ozzy47]

I don't think so if you are using Ajax to refresh the page, but I can look into it at some point.

[Alan_SP]

Well, the biggest problem is DBTech's Ajax threads and threads that have many posts in short periods of time. I don't have many threads like that, but someone might.

On the other hand, maybe even that wouldn't be good idea, to check in time of pressing button for quoting. The best thing would be if it could be checked on pressing button to send post content if quoted text is from last post of a thread. This would solve all possible problems, even when there's no DBTech's Ajax Threads, as very active threads on very active forums could get numerous posts while someone write his post. In such case it would be good that original post to which user is replying is quoted. Unless, of course, is the last post in a thread.
