[AN-net]

ok well i looked at this:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=74718

well their template doesnt work at all>_>

so with the original template code it works. basically im trying to get rid of the signature and option stuff under the message area but for some reason it breaks when i remove this:

<label for="qr_quickreply"><input type="checkbox" name="quickreply" value="1" id="qr_quickreply" accesskey="w" tabindex="4" />$vbphrase[quote_message_in_reply]</label>

the php code is

PHP Code:

                if($can['comment'])
                {
                    require_once('./includes/functions_editor.php');
                    $WYSIWYG = 1;
                    $istyles_js = construct_editor_styles_js();
                    $showsig=0;
                    $threadedmode = 0;
                    $qrpostid = 'who cares';
                    $QRrequireclick = 0;
                    if (!$QRrequireclick AND $WYSIWYG >= 1)
                    {
                        $onload .= " editInit();";
                    } 
            
                    $headinclude .= "
                    <!-- set up CSS for the editor -->
                    <link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href=\"clientscript/vbulletin_editor.css\" />
                    <style type=\"text/css\">
                    <!--
                    #vBulletin_editor {
                        background: {$istyles[pi_button_normal][0]};
                        padding: $stylevar[cellpadding]px;
                    }
                    #controlbar, .controlbar {
                        background: {$istyles[pi_button_normal][0]};
                    }
                    .imagebutton {
                        background: {$istyles[pi_button_normal][0]};
                        color: {$istyles[pi_button_normal][1]};
                        padding: {$istyles[pi_button_normal][2]};
                        border: {$istyles[pi_button_normal][3]};
                    }
                    -->
                    </style>
                    "; 
                    eval('$addcommentform .= "' . fetch_template('journal_addcomment') . '";');
                }
