This hack will allow your users to edit their posts without having to load the editpost page..

How it works: In the bottom right-hand corner of all your posts will be a small Quick Edit icon (users will only see it in posts which belong to them).. When you click it a text box will drop down below your post allowing you to edit it instantly in the thread itself.

This will save you a lot of time when fixing those spelling mistakes, typos, or broken links. It should also help save on bandwidth since your users will no longer need to load the editpost page.

Very easy to install.. 2 file edits, 2 template edits, and 1 template to add.

Known bug: Quick Edit will NOT work with Opera web browsers. Those who use Opera simply won't see the option to quick edit (icon will be invisible when viewed in that browser). It'll work fine in other browsers such as IE or firefox.

Support: Due to work my time is limited as of late so this hack is released AS IS with no support. However, several questions have already been answered in this thread.

Update (7-25-04): Fixed a minor bug with the QE window moving further to the left with each click in mozilla/firefox browsers. To update simply replace your showthread_quickedit template with the new one. Thanks to sv1cec for this bug fix.

Add Ons:
*Show the "delete post" option for those who have permission in the Quick Edit form (also adds edit reason). (by sv1cec)
*Show the "edit reason" field in the Quick Edit form. (Requested by Convergys)
*Alternate Quickedit icon image (by ryancooper)
*Another alternate Quickedit icon (by sv1cec)
*Another alternate Quickedit icon (by charlesk)
*Yet another alternate Quickedit icon (by iguanairs)
*Give users the option to disable quick edit in the usercp (by pco)

If you find this hack useful please click the install button.

But have noticed that in addition to Opera, it also doesn't work with Netscape on a Mac. Though for your records (if you don't already know) it does work on Safari.

This is a real bummer as I now have to switch back to Firefox. I only moved to Netscape last week as the install button on vB.org doesn't work with Firefox.

Also the Quick Edit system has just come online in my Netscape browser *YA*.

So scratch that as a possible bug.

Ok.. thanks guys. I have it set so that Super Mods can edit, as on our forums they have been able to edit normally and requested that they be able to again.. so load time is a little steeper. I'll add that switch though to compensate, I didn't realize it was that simple.

Hello

It is possible to move the window of quick edit ??

If yes, thanks to give me the code

Hey Evil!
Great hack. On our board @ http://www.kirupaforum.com, I have the Quick Edit installed with the changes you mentioned here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=207

Yet, even when I uncheck the "Subscribe" field, I am still subscribed to that thread. Most of the members have that same problem also. Do you happen to have a suggestion on how I could resolve this issue?

Thanks!
Kirupa :nervous:

Kirupa,
Make sure you deleted this line:

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="emailupdate" value="9999" />

kirupa · #**227** 10-13-2004, 02:08 AM

Thanks for the reply Evil! Yeah - I do have that line removed, and I even retried by copying your original code into the showthread_quickreply and making the changes you mention. It is weird, for regardless of whether Subscribe is checked or not, the editer is subscribed to the thread after quick-editing a post :surprised:

EvilLS1 · #**228** 10-13-2004, 02:55 AM

Kirupa,
I know this will sound crazy, but put this line of code back in the template where it was to begin with:

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="emailupdate" value="9999" />

Then just keep the code for the checkbox exactly like you have it. Just tested it on my board, it works fine that way.

kirupa · #**229** 10-13-2004, 03:15 AM

Thanks a lot Evil! That works perfectly :banana:

EvilLS1 · #**230** 10-13-2004, 03:31 AM

Y/W. Sorry for the mix up.

kirupa · #**231** 11-05-2004, 07:37 PM

Hey evil!
Just wondering, is there a way to have the sig checkbox in QuickEdit check to see if the user's post has a signature? In other words, if a user's post has a signature, pressing QuickEdit would have the Sig box checked.

If you can't do that without straining valuable brain processing power, don't worry about it. It's just a minor request several members had.

Cheers!
Kirupa :devious:
