Quick Reply Box

Here's an easy one, it barely took 4 minutes to do. :china:
This hack will add a quick replying box at the bottom of all threads, only if the user has permission to reply, so when you need to reply to something real quickly you don't need to click the Post Reply button and wait for the page to load.

Instructions are in the attached .txt file, and if you want a demo... just look below.

NOTE: For the vB 2.3.2 version please see this post.

Extras:

• If you want users who have the Use Email Notification option ON, to automatically subscribe to threads they reply to with this hack, see this post.
  
• If you want to add an option for each user to turn this feature on and off, please see this post.
  
• If you want smilies in your quick reply box please see this post.

Where do change the code for the reply box to be at the bottom of the thread, currently, it is at the top of the thread.

You have to place $replybox further down in the showthread template. If you look closer, there are two similar sections of code in the showthread template. It confused me too the first time I installed this one

Just installed it on 2.2.9 sweet as a nut fella. It's a great hack and i have no idea why vB did not use it themselves

Is there anyway to make this hack give points when a user posts using it? cause the way I have it installed by default, a user does not get any points.

I want it so the user replying gets points, im sure it cant be that hard, i just dont know too much about PHP.
