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 1.0.4 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.

- As there was a bug introduced in vBulletin 3.6.7 (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/proje...?issueid=22069) version 1.0.0 has some "special" code to override that bug. In version 1.0.1 this code was removed.
- Use version 1.0.4 only with 3.6.8 or greater.

Enjoy!

Awesome, installed/upgraded to v1.0.1 as I am running vB 3.6.8 :up:

Thank you Maxim

I've installed this, and I like it quite a bit. Just one minor adjustment is due. The phrase qpipm_quote_post_in_pm should be adjusted to allow for translating. Not all languages are going to put the username at the end of the sentence, so the phrase should be:

"Quote this post in a PM to {1}"

Instead of

"Quote this post in a PM to"

And close the <phrase> tag in the template:

From this:

	<if condition="$show['pmlink']">
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpm&amp;u=$post[userid]&amp;postid=$post[postid]"><phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[qpipm_quote_post_in_pm] $post[username]</a></td></tr>
	</if>

To this:

	<if condition="$show['pmlink']">
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpm&amp;u=$post[userid]&amp;postid=$post[postid]"><phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[qpipm_quote_post_in_pm]</phrase></a></td></tr>
	</if>

And maybe I've got OCD, but I'd rather see you use $vbphrase[reply_prefix] instead of creating two new phrases qpipm_re_post and qpipm_re_thread.

[Atakan KOC]

Great Thanks!

[Limebean]

No. I made two new phrases "qpipm_re_post" and "qpipm_re_thread" specially. As, for example, I want to see different PMs' titles for quoted posts (threads) with titles and quoted posts without titles.

[ETDC]

Err, do I need to reinstall this now?

I suggest you to install 1.0.2 over 1.0.1.
If you use not only English on your forums you will have to update phrase "qpipm_quote_post_in_pm".

[JadedSouls]

I think this will come in handy for me and my site!
thank you
