Disable Quick Reply and use Advanced Editor?

[TalkVirginia]

My users really dislike the Quick Reply feature. Is there a way to disable it or have vBulletin go directly to the advanced editor when replying/replying with quote?

Thanks

Go to AdminCP - Options - Message Posting and Edition Options.

And there Check NO in Quick Reply.

That's all.

There are so many that do not seem to like the new default quick reply that I'm surprised its kept this way.

Put it back the way it was. Quick reply is nice for the 1% that use it... I don't feel like I should have to disable it entirely to get the forums to act properly.

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:

<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:

<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
