Fantastic compliment to the forms hack Abe.
Will install this soon and I can take out my huge nested conditionals I use currently.

Thanks again.

Nice one. :up:

Abe, could you make a "A Reply Button" of this one too?

Would be nice for Threads where you want a Feedback from users only with a form.

Would be much harder. Threads dont have setting of thier own.

You missed one part in this. On every forum there is a link tool called "forum tools" In that dropdown there is a post new thread text button.

in FORUMDISPLAY:

FIND:

Code:

<if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[post_a_new_thread]</a></td></tr></if>

REPLACE WITH:

Code:

<if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><if condition="$foruminfo['edit_new_thread_button']"><a href="$foruminfo[edit_new_thread_button]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[post_a_new_thread]</a><else /><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[post_a_new_thread]</a></if></td></tr></if>

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
