Private Messages Enhancements - Quote Post in PM

Quote Post in PM

=================
Info:
=================

This product adds a new option in user's popup menu "Quote this post in PM to ..."
This option passes to the PM: the username of the post, post id, as well as the post title (if there is one) or thread title (if there is no post title).

Futures of this hack:
- There is option to enable/disable hack.
- The hack is fully translatable.
- The hack updates popup menu automatically using hook $template_hook[postbit_user_popup]. You can disable this one.
- The hack uses its own template "qpipm_quote". You can change it as you like. The variables: "$originalposterandpostid", "$originalposter", "$originalpostid" and "$pagetext" are used in that template.
- There is option "Automatically Quote Post / Thread Title". Setting this to "Yes" will automatically fill the title of new PM with either the thread or the parent post title, prefixed by 'Re: '.
- You can change 'Re: ' for both thread and post PMs. Search for phrases 'qpipm_re_thread' and 'qpipm_re_post'.
- You can insert the template of this hack manually anywhere you want in user's popup menu by using "$qpipm". Read "Notes:" below.
- You can translate this hack into your native language. Search for Phrases Containing "qpipm_".

From version 3.7.104 this product doesn't use some Boofo's copyrighted code from his hack "Quote Post in PM" (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=115315). without his permission.

- Use version 3.7.104 only with 3.6.8 or greater.

Enjoy!

If you say so. The code speaks for itself.

I don't know what your code speaks for itself. I know that my code no longer has anything to do with that product either on the part of the code, much less on the part of the functionality and convenience.

[Big Boss]

Thanks for the upgrade!

[ArnyVee]

This doesn't overwrite the 'old' version. Should we disable the old one after installing this one?

ArnyVee, if 'old' version is 3.6.* version, then you have to uninstall 3.6.* version and then install 3.7.* version.
If you already have 3.6.* and 3.7.* version, then uninstall both of them and install 3.7.* version one again. It is the best variant
But you canm also uninstall 3.6.* version and then re-install 3.7.* version.

nice hack thanks clicked install

Installed = Thanx

Jacquii.

[TheInsaneManiac]

I like this, but it interferer's with ZH's modification "Default PM Title". I would REALLY love this modification if you could get it to work with that mod.

[blind-eddie]

I am trying to add this option to my postbit & postbit_legacy templates.
Next to the buttons.

I tried a couple of things, but cant get it to show, Any suggestions?

[harlita]

I installed it, it works and I do like it.

It would be cool if you could set it to postbit/postbit_legacy so that you can select a button next to "multi-quote" and have it just open up the quote in a "send new message" box.
