Quick Quote!

Howdy,

This hack will allow you to reply directly (with a quote) to any post in a thread without having to load the newreply page.. In each post will be a small "QuickQoute" radio button.. When you click it a reply box will instantly drop down below that post allowing you to reply with a quote in the thread itself.

Very easy to install.. One file edit, two template edits, and one template to add.

Credits: Thanks to T?Pau's javascript add-on this hack now works with Mozilla.

Here's a screenshot to show how the "Quote Selection" add on works.

Teh add-on works great except when i submit, the quote doesn't say "ORIGINALLY POSTED BY SO AND SO". If that cold be resolved, it would be great.

The add-on will only add quote tags to selected text.

The Quick Quote hack will show the original poster's username, but not the time.

If you want it to show the time, in the "showthread_quickquote" template just change this:

Originally posted by $post[username]

to this

Originally posted by $post[username] at $post[posttime]

It should work with that one aswell.. Just apply those same changes in the showthread template.

There's some differences in there with the code etc, so could you try and figure it out and then post the details for that reply box please

I have no way to test this since I don't use the standalone version, but try this:

If you have clickable smilies with your Quick Reply you will need to do the following if you want to use the Quick Quote add-on:

Find and replace ALL occurrences of "vbform" with "post" in the following places:

vbcode.js
newreply template
newthread template
vbcode_popup_smilies template

That should fix it.
