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.

I did everything on 2.3 and it does not show up for me. I checked everything over 4 times. Help?

Do I only have to replace the first set of code in showthread.php once?

I couldn't get this to work. I joined the java and script and still it wouldn't work. You have an extra quote in your code, too.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that you still have to have this after the closing form tag as explained on the second page of this thread.

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

Dohh!!! I should have remembered that. Thanks for bailing me out on that one.

Just installed on 2.2.9... when modding the Showthread.php $templatesused =
decleration, just tack in the showthread_replybox,newthread_closeopen because the version in your showthread.php in the txt isn't the same as the one in my showthread that came with vbulliten. Wasn't working before but is working great now

i'm using 2.2.9 and i've followed all the steps, including adding the step above and the quick reply box doesn't even show for me at all.

help?

Anyone? It seems it doesn't work properly in 2.3.0 since it gives me errors randomly

Start from scratch, and do what I mentioned above. I had the exact problem, and it works fine now.

This needs to be updated for 2.30. The line where you call the box is no longer in showthread.php and others are saying above. Need new line to insert the code $replybox
