Quote reply control in postbit
Hi, some of my new members haven't got the hang of using the various thread views and because the default view is Linear they find it difficult tracking the post relationships, particularly in long threads. So they constantly post using the quote button and include the entire quoted post - even if their reply follows. This makes it difficult to read threads since some posts are effectively duplicated.
I've attempted to educate some of them but as the forum grows this way becomes too time-consuming. So, i'd like to either replace the Quote button or include a Reply button next to it that calls up their default editor without the quote. I found the code in the postbit template that will remove the control altogether but I'd prefer to modify it so that members can still call up their default editor. Can anyone help? Regards, Mike |

If you have the quick reply enabled and they click on the icon it will take them down to the quick reply and the quote will only be added if they check the check box ^^

I forgot to mention that Quick Reply is enabled and many members seem happy using it but a minority of prolific posters are spoiling the threads for everyone by quoting entire posts in their own - even when the post is just above theirs. As I said, I can remove the Quote control button entirely but that would disadvantage those who like to use the standard and advanced editors. I asked at vB.org and they said to come here as it should be a simple template modification.

No problem with double-posting at all which is a great benefit of vBulletin software.
The vB.org link is: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=505022 I should add that I'm using vB 3.0.1. |

If the quotes go then the quote button should be replaced with reply_small.gif
