New Quote Boxes?

[Erwin]

To get the post count in, you need to edit the "postbit" template and add the variable to the URL for the quote button.

For me the postcount dosent work. I have the postcount and direct link hack installed. In Postbit the variable $postcount works but in my quotereply not...this is strange!

You totally lost me here. I just used postid in the quote_reply and it worked. Where and how would you add it to the quote button and what would you use for the line in the quote_reply then?

Like I said, the $postcount variable does NOT work immediately.

You need to edit your Quote button link in postbit, and add this to the end of the Quote button URL:

&postcount=$postcount

OR

&postcount=$post[postcount]

Depending on what you use as the postcount variable in your postbit. This way the variable is send to the quote reply template.

Ahhh, I see. But if you just use $postid where you have $postcount, you wouldn't need to edit the quote button line at all.

Works like a charm now!!

[Boofo]

Excellent work, Erwin, but postid would have done the same thing.

but postnumber of a thread looks better

But when it is processed, the information is all the same.
