Save Reply as Draft

[Titus]

I'd like to request a mod that allows people to compose replies or new threads, and then save these replies for posting later on. My community has a lot of very long posts, and though most are composed in programs like MS Word, it would be really handy to save posts for later.

I was thinking that something that did the following would work great for me

-- Reply Page / New Post Page
A new button, 'Save as Draft'.

-- User CP
A new section, 'Saved Drafts' Allows you to review saved replies, edit them, and save again or post them to their new thread, or the existing thread.

-- Admin CP
Turn function on and off globally, turn function on and off per-usergroup, turn function on and off per-user. Edit how many saved replies per person, edit capability to save replies and/or threads globally, per usergroup, and per user.

That would be a cool hack IMHO!

I definately wanted this it was similiar to the userpad that Chen made for vb2

Bringing this up from the dead as I need this hack too.

Bump! Need this desperately. Comeon u coders....we know you wanna bust out some code on this....

I understand the "cool" factor I guess (more useful for PMs or email I'd say - like gmail), but is something like this really needed for posts?

I have it in my email, but for posts and or new threads, this would be Paris Hilton HOT. Tough to code up?

[Tekton]

Depends on how tough you think tough is :P

[Tekton]

It's definantly a strange idea... don't ask me why I'm trying it. :P

I'm so sloppy at code.

P.S. It's not working yet... well, the editing the saved draft part at least...

did I mention it was sloppy?

EDIT: This is only for posts... at least, for now.

EDIT2: and the location of the draft thingy is http://tektek.org/forum/draft.php since I forgot I have no links to it~

[Tekton]

Not too much progress~ (darn school!)

This is still wanted... right? It can be altered differently later if people don't like how it's set up too. This is just a lazy "view em" kinda mode...
