A New newthread look!
Version: 1.1 Released: 21 June 2009 Manual Template Edits: [1] Optional Edits: [1] This small modification changes the way your newthread template looks, and feels. It compacts the message area, with the additional options area. Sometimes I find my users don't even know those additional options are there, so this makes browsing easier from a users point of view. [OPTIONAL] To get the most out of this hack I suggest you install Princeton's GTSmiliebox - Move Smilies Below Editor. Once installed, find the Message Posting Interface Options in the vBulletin options and I suggest changing the Smilebox Total Smilies and Smiliebox Smilies Per Row to 25 for best viewing!

I just found this mod...in fact only recently started using my VB board again.
This is wonderful although I need to do some tweaking to this mod and to the New Reply mod to get them to look good with my skin. I would love to see the same mod for Editing Posts... PS: I have bookmarked your mod so I can make donations come payday next week! Regards, Alisa

For all those having issues with the sidebox being wide and pushing the rest out...it is the length of the Tag input box that is the culprit...I simply moved the code for the tags under the smilies box and it's all good
Move this entire section: Code:
<if condition="$show['tag_option']">
<fieldset class="fieldset" style="margin-top: $stylevar[cellpadding]px">
<legend>$vbphrase[tags]</legend>
<div style="padding:$stylevar[formspacer]px">
<div>$vbphrase[separate_tags_using_comma]</div>
<span id="tag_add"><input type="text" class="bginput" name="taglist" id="tag_add_input" value="$newpost[taglist]" size="40" tabindex="1" /></span>
<if condition="$show['tags_remain']"><div><phrase 1="$tags_remain">$vbphrase[you_may_add_x_tags_to_thread]</phrase></div></if>
<if condition="$show['popups']">
<div id="tag_add_menu" class="vbmenu_popup" style="display:none"></div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_ajax_tagsugg.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
vbmenu_register('tag_add', true);
tag_add_comp = new vB_AJAX_TagSuggest('tag_add_comp', 'tag_add_input', 'tag_add');
tag_add_comp.allow_multiple = true;
tag_add_comp.set_delimiters('$tag_delimiters');
//-->
</script>
</if>
</fieldset>
</if>
Code:
$posticons  **or cos I didn't even think of it...I do prefer the hard way LOL you can probably insert a width for the input box to narrow it down Edit to add...thanx for this template change! Rude of me to forget that bit LOL

Great mod! This looks so much nicer on my board. One question: Since many of our group members are older ladies (its for a crochet / knitting group) the small text is a little too small for some of them to read easily. Is there a way to reset the text back to a slightly larger font size?
