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.

Well since it's running here and this forum is running 2.2.1, the answer would be yes!

hmm yeah, the box just didnt show up

1. In showthread.php find this bit of code:
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread...

this code appears at 2 places. the first one is at line ~55 and the 2. one at 230. after which one must i add the changes to it?

cihangir - thanks, I fixed the text file in the first post.
Neopiper - that's probably why the hack didn't work for you, try again now.

[Neopiper]
