Quick Quote II -Quote posts instantly in your Quick Reply box

Hi,

This is not an update to my other Quick Qoute hack. The other hack is a stand alone feature which works with or without the Quick Reply box.. This one does not..

To use this hack you MUST already have the Quick Reply box hack installed.

What does it do? This hack will allow you to instantly quote any post or multiple posts in your Quick Reply Box.

How it works: In the upper righthand corner of each post will be a small "QuickQoute" checkbox.. When you click it the text from that post and the original poster's username will automatically be inserted into your Quick Reply box with quote tags around it.

Improvements over the other "Quote Selected" add-on:

• Works with all browsers
• You can quote multiple posts
• No need to highlight any text. Posts are quoted instantly.
• Includes original poster's username

Very easy to install.. 1 file edit, 1 template edit, and 1 template to add.

Works with vB versions 2.2.X and 2.3.X.

If you find this hack useful please click install.

I just took a look at the Quote multiple posts hack and I think its definitely whats conflicting with this hack. It puts all the messages inside of a single form, and this hack is putting a form in each postbit.. You cannot embed a form inside of another form, so this is whats causing your problem.

Not with this hack, however it might be possible to make some minor adjustments so that it could work with the quote multiple posts hack..

Try this:

Reinstall the Quote multiple posts hack by xiphoid exactly as you had it..

Then at the top of your "quickquote" template add this:

</form>

Still in the quickquote template, add this at the bottom:

<form action="newreply.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">
<input type="hidden" name="threadid" value="$threadid">

If you've installed my "Quick Edit" hack you will also need to add that code to the top & bottom of the "showthread_quickedit" template.

I haven't tested this so I have no idea if it'll work or not, but it might be worth a try if you want to use both hacks together.

Good luck with it.

Does anyone else have this working with 2.3.0?

For the record, this mod works 100% fine with 2.3.0


Thanks for the "gap" fix Velocd, it works a treat
I now have this mod running EXACTLY how I've wanted it for a long time..


Apologies to those that have PM'd me over the last 5 days asking how I changed the checkbox into an image, I haven't been around and forgot to set my status to Away.. . Instructions have been attached.

nm, i figured it out. thanks alot, this ownz.

Just a suggestion, when you fix a problem, would you post how you fixed the problem because I am having the same thing happen, and I don't get the check box. It helps people who have the same problem.

I followed the directions perfectly (I even installed and uninstalled) and it still does not show the little check box...

Thats good to hear. Thanks for letting us know.

Also, I added a link to your image button instructions in the second post of this thread.


BrandonC,
The only things I can think of to check are:
*If you have more than one template set be sure you added the modifications to all of them.
*Make sure you spelled the template name correctly (quickquote).
*Make sure your postbit contains the $quick_quote variable.

I know those are all obvious things that you've probably already double checked, but if you've added the code to admin/functions it should be working for you.

Thanks EvilLS1, and thankyou for taking the time out to come up with a solution for this feature.. You wouldn't believe how long I've been waiting for such a thing.. I've attempted it before a couple of times to no avail.

Could you also place a link in the second post to my little Anchor addon? Just so that people whom want this feature know that it exists..
