Quick PM Reply Box for Private Messages Version 1.4
---------------------------------------------------------
vB3 Enhanced Version!
Finally, I've upgraded this popular hack for vB 3.0.x - it should work with all versions of vB3.
Update: --------------------
Version 1.4 :
1) Choose to use no toolbars, normal toolbar or WYSIWYG toolbar.
2) Choose to show smilie box or not.
3) Choose to show posticons or not.
To do this, edit these sections of the code you have added:
PHP Code:
// 0 = no toolbar, 1 = standard toolbar, 2 = wysiwyg toolbar $vboptions['allowvbcodebuttons'] = '2'; // 0 = no smilie box, 1 = smilie box shown $vboptions['wysiwyg_show_smiliebox'] = '1';
AND
PHP Code:
// Uncomment line below to stop showing posticons // $posticons = '';
Functions:
--------------------------
It's similar to Quick Reply for Threads, except that this is Quick Reply for PMs - when you go in to read a PM, there is a Quick Reply Box underneath the PM, with the Username inserted, Subject with RE: filled in, and the message already quoted.
This vB3 version also has the WYSIWYG buttons, smilies and posticon choices listed as well, depending on what you have set up in your ToolBar settings in Options. You can also now customize this - you can choose to have no toolbar, the normal toolbar, the WYSIWYG toolbar, the smilie box or the posticons or not!
There are also checkboxes to save a copy, show your signature, automatically parse links or disable smilies in text. Also, these options are in a box that is collapsible.
This hack uses the normal vB3 Phrases that are already existent. So no need to do any translating.
Installation:
---------------------------
Very simple. It's a matter of editing 1 PHP file, and 1 template.
Believe it or not, that's all!
The installations instructions are in the install HTML file in the ZIP file below.
Enjoy!
Updates:
----------------------
Version 1.2 - Fixed it so it works with WYSIWYG. Removed the Message Tracking checkbox feature I had in Version 1.1 - I'll keep the Popup Windows for now. NOTE: Delete doesn't work in Gamma - this is fixed in RC 1 and 2.
Screenshots:
-----------------------------
This is a bit redundant since this hack is already installed here, but I will put a couple up anyway.
The first screenshot shows how the Quick PM Reply Box is underneath the PM you are reading, with the Recipient's username, Subject with RE:, and Message in quotes automatically put in already. You can also see the WYSIWYG toolbar and smilie panel (depending on what you have set up in your User CP Options).
The second screenshot shows the checkboxes to save a copy, show your signature, automatically parse links or disable smilies in text. These options are in a box that is collapsible.

Awesome job but.. I would like the same Quick Reply box shown at the bottom of every thread in the forums... that one you have made it's a full reply box.
*installs*
How can I use the original Quick Reply Box as in showthread for private messages? Any ideas?
Kier did a little code a while back that makes the pop-up receipt window into a checkbox (like you had here before you changed it). I am using that. Is there anything I neeed to take out of this hack that will interfere with that now?
I would love to be able to do this, for all PMs not just replies. I have had a quick search but don't seem to be able to find a vB 3.0.3 version (or any version for that matter). Could someone please help?
When I ask for forum tools suggestions form my users general dislike of the read receipt confirmation box is always top of peoples list.
