How can y make it that when y press the Reply To Thread button to take me directly to the new reply windows instead of taking me down to the quick reply?
Thanks in advance.

This behavior is by design now, and cannot be changed without modification. Unless they changed it in 4.0.2. Personally, I see no problem with it; we can press "go advanced" if we really need to.

There's at least one mod floating around that adds all kinds of bells and whistles to the quick reply, almost doing what you want to do.

bump!

I really need that too! I think its normal that if we press on "reply" that we should go to advanced reply and not 100 pixels above to the quick reply!!! People knows that the quickreply is just there, so the button should bring us to the advanced form!!
Its really not logical!!

How can we do it ! ??

I dont want to disable the quickreply... i just want that buttons become useful

Not everyone displays the Quickreply box, so it's not "100 pixels above" for everyone. I don't find it an issue, and I have simply told users they can double click the reply button to get the advanced editor.

I do not like this behavior and have had to disable quick reply until fixed. Why have an advanced editor if you aren't going to use it by default.

Does anyone know of a hack that changes this back to what it should be - one click on reply or quote takes you to the full editor?

So that those who need it can use it. I use it maybe 30% of the time. But when a simple response is required, it's easier to use quick reply. Try it for a while, you might like it.

Due to another vb developers stuff up to make life hard for the support people and the few vb users that are left, what I have done is added an Adv Reply button to the post footer:

In your postbit_legacy template look for:

Code:

<a id="qr_{vb:raw post.postid}" class='quickreply' href="{vb:raw post.replylink}" rel="nofollow"><img id="replyimg_{vb:raw post.postid}" src="{vb:raw vboptions.cleargifurl}" alt="{vb:rawphrase quick_reply_to_this_message}" /> {vb:rawphrase reply}</a> 
                    <span class="seperator">&nbsp;</span>
                    </vb:if>

Straight after that add this:

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['quickreply'] AND !$show['threadedmode']">
                        <a class='quickreply' href="newreply.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}p={vb:raw post.postid}&amp;noquote=1" rel="nofollow"><img id="replyimg_{vb:raw post.postid}" src="{vb:raw vboptions.cleargifurl}" alt="Advanced reply" /> Adv {vb:rawphrase reply}</a>
                        <span class="seperator">&nbsp;</span>
                    </vb:if>

I also added the word "Quick" just before the (vb:rawphrase reply) in the first block of code above to make it clear for the user what reply they are going to.

Hope this helps
