Show Thread Enhancements - Register to reply button in postfoot for guests

This is just a simple little edit that changes the reply with quote button, to a register to reply button that points to a register page instead of a no permissions page.

INSTRUCTIONS: Open postbit or postbit_legacy template depending on your forum setup.

Find:

<vb:if condition="$post['replylink']">

Replace with:

<vb:if condition="$post['replylink'] AND $show['member']">

Find:

<vb:if condition="$show['multiquote_post']"><span class="seperator">&nbsp;</span></vb:if>
</vb:if>

Add After:

<vb:if condition="$show['guest']">
<a id="qrwq_5837" class="newreply" href="http://YOUR FORUM URL/register.php" rel="nofollow"><img id="quoteimg_5837" src="clear.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" />  Register To Reply</a>
</vb:if>

Replace "YOUR FORUM URL" with your forum path, save template and you should be all good to go.

I am by no means an experience coder, but can find my way around php. If you have any problems please let me know and I will do my best to help. Enjoy.

The last part gives invalid html when posts are greater than one in a thread because of the repeated id's.

<vb:if condition="$show['guest']">
<a id="qrwq_5837" class="newreply" href="http://YOUR FORUM URL/register.php" rel="nofollow"><img id="quoteimg_5837" src="clear.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" />  Register To Reply</a>
</vb:if>

I removed them both for valid html. ie

<vb:if condition="$show['guest']">
<a class="newreply" href="http://YOUR FORUM URL/register.php" rel="nofollow"><img src="clear.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" />  Register To Reply</a>
</vb:if>

Ikarrus, did you change the postbit template or the posbit legacy template? I followed the instructions perfectly and no worky?

I actually changed both, as just changing the posbit template did nothing?

installed, an excellent idea

Is there a way to add this as a button rather than replacing the reply with quote button.

Well when I do the edits on postbit_legacy it removes the text completely. And if I do the edits on postbit instead, or aswell then I get the same result.
