New Posting Features - Quick Reply for Guests for VB4 by BOP5

Brought to you by BirdOPrey5 / Qapla.com

This is a port of my VB 3.8 Mod.

Live Demo: Guest Forum at Qapla.com

This mod allows guests to use Quick Reply.

Quick Reply will only be shown in threads in which guests are allowed to post.

If human verification is enabled, that too will be displayed for the guest.

I have tested this on 4.1.10, I expect it should work on all 4.0.x/4.1.x versions.

Although it was a simple result it was actually pretty tricky to get this mod working right.

I've marked this as Beta because it is new but it is working for me without issue.

v0.98 - Initial Release (for VB4)
v0.981 - Bug Fix- Human Verify will only show if human verify enabled for posts
v0.985 - Updated to work with SolveMedia Captcha

Please Mark as Installed if you use this.
Donations are always appreciated. :up:

[BirdOPrey5]

Don't worry about it. Thank you.

Must have got lucky. Please let me know if you have any issues with it.

Birdofprey your a legend!

Is there anyway to make the username box 'more' part of the quick reply and ontop?

Look at my image quick, is there anyway to make it look like quick 2, just so it looks all together. I originally missed the username box at first lol.

ETA: Works fine for me!!!

That was my first thought for placement as well but in my testing trying to add any code over there destroyed the layout of the rest of the quick reply box... I will put some more time into trying to add this alternate location.

Even if its not directly within the quick reply box (which would be ace), even below the reply to thread button would be better I reckon as it's more in your eye line ifyswim.

ETA: nominated for MOTM and a donation made as it's just ace!

Much appreciated. :up:

I am working on getting this to look better but if you want to see where I'm going go to your Plugin Manager, find this product, and edit the plugin on the showthread_complete hook.

Erase all the code there and replace it with:

PHP Code:

global $vbulletin, $vbphrase;

if ($vbulletin->options['bop5qrg_en'] AND $vbulletin->options['bop5qrg_auto'] AND $vbulletin->options['bop5username'])
{
  $usrnmcode = '<div style="margin-left: 10px;"><label for="username">'.$vbphrase['bop5qrg_guest_user_name'].':</label><input type="text" class="primary textbox" id="username" name="username" value="'.addslashes($vbulletin->options['bop5qrg_username']).'" tabindex="1" /><p class="description"><a href="javascript://" onclick="return highlight_login_box();">'.$vbphrase['click_here_to_log_in'].'</a></p><br />';

  $human_verify = str_replace ('rightcol', '', $human_verify);

  //$find = '<input type="hidden" name="poststarttime" value="" />';
  $find = '<div class="wysiwyg_block">';

  
  if ($vbulletin->options['hv_type'] == "Recaptcha")
  {
       $human_verify = str_replace ("'", "\\'", $human_verify);
  }
 
  $replace = $find .'<table class="formcontrols" padding="10" style="border-bottom: 0px;" border="0" width="100%"><tr><td width="200" VALIGN="top">' . $usrnmcode .'</td><td VALIGN="top">' .  $human_verify . '</td></tr></table>';

  $vbulletin->templatecache['SHOWTHREAD'] = str_replace($find, $replace.$find, $vbulletin->templatecache['SHOWTHREAD']);

} 

If you want to go back to how it was just re-install the mod with allow overwrite set to yes.

global $vbulletin, $vbphrase;

if ($vbulletin->options['bop5qrg_en'] AND $vbulletin->options['bop5qrg_auto'] AND $vbulletin->options['bop5username'])
{
  $usrnmcode = '<br /><div style="margin-left: 10px;"><label for="username">'.$vbphrase['bop5qrg_guest_user_name'].':</label><input type="text" class="primary textbox" id="username" name="username" value="'.addslashes($vbulletin->options['bop5qrg_username']).'" tabindex="1" /><p class="description"><a href="javascript://" onclick="return highlight_login_box();">'.$vbphrase['click_here_to_log_in'].'</a></p>';

  $human_verify = str_replace ('rightcol', '', $human_verify);

  //$find = '<input type="hidden" name="poststarttime" value="" />';
  $find = '<div class="wysiwyg_block">';

  
  if ($vbulletin->options['hv_type'] == "Recaptcha")
  {
       $human_verify = str_replace ("'", "\\'", $human_verify);
  }
 
  $replace = $find .'<table class="formcontrols" padding="10" style="border-bottom: 0px;" border="0" width="100%"><tr><td width="200" VALIGN="top">' . $usrnmcode .'</td><td VALIGN="top">' .  $human_verify . '</td></tr></table>';

  $vbulletin->templatecache['SHOWTHREAD'] = str_replace($find, $replace.$find, $vbulletin->templatecache['SHOWTHREAD']);

} 

I've swapped a <br/> around which makes it sit nice and neatly in within the box evenly. It doesn't like my ESB mod though, I am going to disable that on threads and see whats the outcome.
