Quick Thread Box

Ok, this is like Fireflys quick reply box, but its for making quick threads. This is at the bottonm of your forumdisplay.

This has the basics to it. There are only the name of the new thread and the new thread message area. And if people wish for more options.. maybe thats what the normal way is for

Enjoy.

if ($totalthreads>0 || $stickyids != '') {
// there are threads
eval("\$forumdisplay[threadslist] = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_threadslist')."\";") ;
} else {
// just announcements
eval("\$forumdisplay[threadslist] = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_announcementsonly'). "\";");
}

} else {
// there are no threads or announcements to show
eval("\$forumdisplay[threadslist] = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_nothreads')."\";" );

No you need to go to the forum display templates which is located on the admin control panel.

hmm....while most version changes in vB are subtle (somewhat)

version 2.2.8 has a problem with this hack (and i installed it exactly)

in where it hides subforums...and yes, i checked the forums active controls and such...but the hack seems to hide subforums...if u could help with this, it would be great, cause i like this hack, and to have it not work is dissapointing..

I've got a problem with this hack - it appears to kill email notification for my 2.2.9 board.

Once I reverted to the old forumdisplay, email notification worked again. I noticed an addition to Firefly's Quick Reply hack that provide an if/then. I have that hack installed and it works fine, and inluded that extra codechunk.

Is there a fix out there, or a problem anyone else is having with email notification with this hack?

Add this line:

	$clickysmilies = getclickysmilies();

to forumdisplay.php right after this:

 
	$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

Open newthreadbox template and add these to lines to the very begining:

<script language="Javascript" src="vbcode.js"></script>
<script language="Javascript" src="vbcode_language.js"></script>

then use $clickysmilies in the "newthreadbox" template to add the box with the smilies in it.

To add it where I added mine find:

<normalfont><b>Message:</b></normalfont>

Add it right beside it so the smilies box displays under Message:

$clickysmilies

I know hellsatan did this already but he asked to edit the wrong file. This works perfectly fine on vB2.3.0.
