New Posting Features - Add Pm Button, Find Post By User Button, And User To Contacts Button, To Postbit

This code does what it says on the tin - it will add a PM Button, Find Post By User Button and Add user to Contacts Button, to your postbit( to the left of your reply/ quote buttons)

All you have to do is upload 3 attached images to your forum images folder and insert some code, easy as that .

OPEN POSTBIT LEGACY TEMPLATE AND FIND :

<!-- controls -->

ADD AFTER :

<span style="float:left">
<a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpm&amp;u=$post[userid]" rel="nofollow"><img class="inlineimg" src="http://www.yoursite.co.uk/forums/images/pm.gif" alt="Send a private message to $post[username]" border="0" /></a>

<a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=finduser&amp;u=$post[userid]" rel="nofollow"<img class="inlineimg" src="http://www.yoursite.co.uk/forums/images/find.gif" alt="Find more posts by $post[username]" border="0" /></a>


<a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=addlist&amp;userlist=friend&amp;u=$post[userid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="http://www.yoursite.co.uk/forums/images/add_contact.gif" alt="Add $post[username] to Your Contacts" border="0" /></a>

</span>

***Make sure you change the directories IN GREEN above to match your site images folder ***

when you are done the control section of code within your post bit legacy should look something like this :

<!-- controls -->


<span style="float:left">
<a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpm&amp;u=$post[userid]" rel="nofollow"><img class="inlineimg" src="http://www.yoursite.co.uk/forums/images/pm.gif" alt="Send a private message to $post[username]" border="0" /></a>

That seems to be for the postbit where this one that technom8t just posted is for postbit legacy.



I used this in 3.8.1 and it works just fine. Still tweaking my postbit layout before I officially launch my site.

Thanks!

[zombietom]

I used a combo of both of them ..thanks to both of you guys.

[technom8t]

Im Glad it went to some use, thanks guy's :-)

[ZexTasy]

Shouldn't this be placed in the forum vBulletin 3.7 Template Modifications ?

[Forumi Shqiptar]

tagged this modification and i need some other buttons like:

Adding someone into the ignore list
Forwarding guests to the profile of the user

[Amalion]

Thank you. Me and my users like it very much.

I used for "find" and for the "PM".
