PM RealQuickReply

I've never really considered including the whole newpm box at the bottom of a pm a very "Quick" way of replying.. So after much tweaking this is what I came up with..

PM RealQuickReply v1.01

Firstly install the attached product file..

Next we need to edit the pm_newpm template.

find:

<tr>
	<td class="tcat">$vbphrase[post_new_private_message]</td>
</tr>

replace with:

<tr>
	<td class="tcat"><if condition="($_REQUEST['do'] == 'showpm')">Quickreply to $originalposter<else />$vbphrase[post_new_private_message]</if></td>
</tr>

find:

<!-- recipients field -->

add above:

<if condition="($_REQUEST['do'] == 'showpm')">
<input type="hidden" id="pmrecips_txt" name="recipients" value="$pm[recipients]">
<input type="hidden" name="title" value="$pm[title]">

		<!-- message area -->
		<div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[message]:</div>		
		<div id="$editorid" class="vBulletin_editor" align="$stylevar[left]">$messagearea</div>
		<!-- / message area -->

<else />

find:

$posticons

add above:

</if>

Your done with that template.

Now we need to edit the pm_showpm template.

find and remove:

<form action="private.php" method="post">

now find:

$postbit

<br />

and below it add:

$vBeditTemplate[clientscript]
$quickpmreply
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_quick_reply.js"></script>

<form action="private.php" method="post">

and your done.. Enjoy :bunny: (Please remember to click install to be informed of updates)

Changelog:
v1.00 Initial Release
v1.01 pm_newpm Edit changed in the hope of a more troublefree install.


--------------
Optional Extras
--------------

To add support for Psionic Vision's Advanced PM Options

(Firstly Install that hack) Then in the PM RealQuickReply Plugin [private_showpm_start] hook find:

  $is_quick_reply = 1;
  eval('$quickpmreply = "' . fetch_template('pm_newpm') . '";');

above that add:

$checked['savecopy'] = ($vbulletin->userinfo['advpmoptions_savecopy'] ? 'checked="checked"' : '');

$checked['receipt'] = ($vbulletin->userinfo['advpmoptions_receipt'] ? 'checked="checked"' : '');

$checked['deleteoriginal'] = ($vbulletin->userinfo['advpmoptions_deleteoriginal'] ? 'checked="checked"' : '');

and your done

Yep you need to make sure you place it after:

<!-- / message area -->

and not:

<!-- message area -->

Otherwise you'll run into that problem..

I end up with 2 message boxes? One where it should be and one below the pm reply (which are not where they should be) options. Any ideas? I tried reinstalling twice. :-/

Firstly, make sure you've taken note of this post. If so and your still having problems PM Me your pm_newpm template and I'll check it out for you..

I've changed the instructions on this edit slightly as people seemed to be getting confused..

I'm gonna install this to keep an eye on it ...

So far I've noticed that the small "quick reply and quote" button doesn't work.

Also, the texarea width means that a bottom scrollbar appears if a user is on 800x600 resolution

Does this quote the message in the PM? (like Erwins old version?) Thanks

Nice, much better than the other but one complaint, none of the editor buttons work and it doesn't let you quote the pm. Only problems I see.
