Quick Quote II -Quote posts instantly in your Quick Reply box

Hi,

This is not an update to my other Quick Qoute hack. The other hack is a stand alone feature which works with or without the Quick Reply box.. This one does not..

To use this hack you MUST already have the Quick Reply box hack installed.

What does it do? This hack will allow you to instantly quote any post or multiple posts in your Quick Reply Box.

How it works: In the upper righthand corner of each post will be a small "QuickQoute" checkbox.. When you click it the text from that post and the original poster's username will automatically be inserted into your Quick Reply box with quote tags around it.

Improvements over the other "Quote Selected" add-on:

• Works with all browsers
• You can quote multiple posts
• No need to highlight any text. Posts are quoted instantly.
• Includes original poster's username

Very easy to install.. 1 file edit, 1 template edit, and 1 template to add.

Works with vB versions 2.2.X and 2.3.X.

mine werks another kool addon which i rekon i could do my self but if u wonted to try that wood b kool would be that wen a user clicks the check box they get send down to the QR box by using an anchor(bookmark)

I'll let you do that addon b/c in all honesty its not something that I would want.. And the reason is that it would be rather annoying when you're trying to quote multiple posts.. Glad to hear that it worked for you though.

Excellent work EvilLS1!
You've just about hit the sweet spot with this addon .

Is there any other way to make it work? As it is now, it adds a big gap between the checkbox and the post.. I tried to make it in to a button and place it next to the Quote button on the postbit template, and it worked, but it still adds the gaps and doesn't quite work design wise..

Sorry, I know I'm never satisfied am I..? :nervous:

Or just rid of the checkbox, and use an image button, and it would simulate sorta how the vB3 quick reply system works. (when you click the button and are redirected to the quick reply, of course in this case the quote is inserted into the quick reply)

[EvilLS1]

Thanks.

Oblivion Knight, This is the only way I know of.. You might try placing the button in a different place. Maybe under the user's location on the left.

corsacrazy, Try this (haven't tested it myself).. And if that doesn't work try searching for "javascript toggle function" on google. It can be done but I didn't bother adding it because its hard to find one that works with all browsers.

<input type="checkbox" id="p$post[postid]" onclick="if(document.p$post[postid].p$post[postid].checked)
document.post.message.value = document.post.message.value + document.p$post[postid].elements[0].value;
 else document.post.message.value = document.post.message.value - 
document.p$post[postid].elements[0].value">

Exactly what I have implemented on my postbit..
I just need to come up with a way to get rid of the gaps so I can place it next to the quote button now..

I'll have a look in to vB3's quick reply system, see if that gives me any clues how to do it.
