MultiQuote

Introduction
This multiquote hack allows your members to select multiple posts to quote from. These posts can be on a different page, in a different thread, or on an entirely different forum. Don't worry, the hack checks to make sure the user has read permissions on the post so no sneaky members can insert random post ID's in hopes to find what's going on in your secret staff forums.

What's new in this "version 2"?

• Better programmed!
• "Go Advanced" works with Quick Reply
• Fixed the bug with IE not "turning on" the MQ icons when re-viewing a thread with MQ'd posts.
• Included vB3-styled icons (I just resized the images posted by Hoffi -- thanks Hoffi!)

Overview

• vB files to modify: 1 (newreply.php)
• Templates to modify: 2 (SHOWTHREAD, postbit)
• Phrases to create: 1 (multiquote)
• Files to upload: 3 (2 images, 1 Javascript file)

(Included missing Javascript file from post #75. Sorry for the delays, I don't come around often!)

And the question if a hack made for vB3.0.x will work on vB3.5 would have to be answered with No, with the occasional exception.

Ok hope to see it convert to 3.5 soon.

This hack is nice, but so is quick reply.. Already a few members have has issues.. If you click multi post and then do a quick reply, it quotes them.. But every time you quick reply after that, it quotes those same posts.... ??? Whats up with that? Its like it doesnt reset a table or something after you reply.. Is this by design? And is there a fix in process? Otherwise, I think I will uninstall

Mine doesnt work with quick reply...hmmm

[MThornback]

Tried it....it was holding all the quotes as previously mentioned....so I uninstalled....its a great idea....but it needs some fine tuning before i'll try again

I tried installing this on my vB 3.0.7 and I got the following error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ']' in /home/met920/public_html/forums/newreply.php on line 110

line 110 of newreply.php is:

PHP Code:

if(isset($_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX+.+'multiquote'])) 


That line is part of the code I have to put for this mod..

Hello

I had this previously installed (2.0 ver.), on a 3.0.3 board. Then I re-installed it when i upgraded our board to 3.0.7 and I wasnt having any problems. I had installed the who quoted me hack afterwards which caused our forums to act weird. I so un-install all the hacks until I got that one working properly. Then I re-installed mutliquote. It works perfectly fine, tested with both IE and FireFox. Theres only one problem tho, everytime someone views a thread it gives me/them this error:

onload="initMultiQuote();if (is_ie || is_moz) { fetch_object('currentPost').scrollIntoView(!is_moz ); } editInit();"

in the showthread.php at the very top of each thread, every time. :disappointed: Outside of that it works perfectly fine. Does anyone have a clue as to how to fix this? Or what I can do to hide this from showing? Any help would be much appreciated, thank you in advance.

This hack works perfectly on my 3.0.9 board except for one small thing: the icon doesn't appear for those who choose postbit_legacy! (On my board, users can switch between postbit and postbit_legacy.) What do I have to add, and to where, to get the icon to appear?
