Nakkid..is this compatible with the "Reason for Closed Thread" hack?

TECK · #4 06-28-2002, 02:04 AM

ya.. it is. the steps are identical, except the showthread.php changes. btw, i released v1.1 for 'Quick Close/Open Thread'.

Nakkid,

How about some upgrade instructions for those of us who have already added the quick reply box?

Looks nice, although I sorta like the space of FireFly's quick reply. So I will just extract the quick close option on yours and apply it to his

Once again, good job.

the idea was to have the close/open switch handy everywhere. i made this template because i like it smaller...

just a note for you.. firefly forgot to add his new template into $templatesused so that will add an extra query and also there are some code leftovers from his hacked board.
make sure you remove them from the template.

the 2 hacks are totally different. there are present 9 lines of code from firefly's hack. i clearly mark them on the hacked code. also i included credits for that code segment.

best way is to compare firefly's showthread.php and replybox template with mines. that's the only resemblance to the hack.
