Quick Reply Box

Here's an easy one, it barely took 4 minutes to do. :china:
This hack will add a quick replying box at the bottom of all threads, only if the user has permission to reply, so when you need to reply to something real quickly you don't need to click the Post Reply button and wait for the page to load.

Instructions are in the attached .txt file, and if you want a demo... just look below.

NOTE: For the vB 2.3.2 version please see this post.

Extras:

• If you want users who have the Use Email Notification option ON, to automatically subscribe to threads they reply to with this hack, see this post.
  
• If you want to add an option for each user to turn this feature on and off, please see this post.
  
• If you want smilies in your quick reply box please see this post.

As stated in prvious page find the second instance of

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

then add:

$clickysmilies = getclickysmilies();

The smilies will then show on 2.3.2.

um , no , no it won't , that's why we're asking for someone that has it running on a 2.3.2 board to lend a hand and tell how it's done.

I am running a 2.3.2 board. After I did this:

As stated in previous page find the second instance of

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

then add:

$clickysmilies = getclickysmilies();

All worked fine.

Looks like you need to be registered to see the quick reply.

Oops sorry about that. I guess it's by default so there is nothing I can do to make it show for non registered.

k , got it now , thanks for the help, I had it stuck after the FIRST instance , not the second. Benefits of a 5 day marathon to restore a hacked forum.

You can allow guests to be able to reply to threads if you want to show quick reply to guests

The vB2.3.2 version was just as easy to install as the orignal great job!

Does any one know what i have to adjust in the showthread.php to get my vB buttons and smilies and such to appear on a quick reply box? (for v2.3.2)

[myst1333]

nvmd, i figured it out, btw hexonxonx's hack for smiles works except he changed the smily variable to $clickysmiles thats why none of yours work and the line for vB buttons (if anyone wants to know) is:

$vbcode_buttons = getcodebuttons();

and can be placed right after the smiles code
