Evil Quick Reply

[nlhma]

I do not know what happened, but I do have the quick reply button on the top of the forum, but not at the bottom. Please suggest me some possible reasons.

Thank you.

P/S: I installed as instructed on page 16 on phpbb gold. And I did check it twice following the instruction.

you rock! I'll give that a whirl and report back.

Ok I found the section o

Code: Select all

f code that is the quickreply, its in (go figure) phpbbroot/includes/functions_quick_reply.php . Now if you open that up you'll see something resembling this

Code: Select all

Now if you scroll down to the section

Code: Select all

$qr_config = array(
		// Disable it easily
		'enabled'			=> isset($config['evil_qr_enabled']) ? $config['evil_quick_reply'] : true,
		// Do you want the subject line to be displayed
		'display_subject'	=> isset($config['evil_qr_display_subject']) ? $config['evil_qr_display_subject'] : true,
		// Shall the box be hidden on pageload?
		'hide_box'			=> isset($config['evil_qr_hide_box']) ? $config['evil_qr_hide_box'] : false,
		// Display the buttons to resize the textarea?
		'resize'			=> isset($config['evil_qr_resize']) ? $config['evil_qr_resize'] : true,
		// Displays BBcode tags
		'bbcodes'			=> isset($config['evil_qr_bbcodes']) ? $config['evil_qr_bbcodes'] : true,
		// Displays Smilies
		'smilies'			=> isset($config['evil_qr_smilies']) ? $config['evil_qr_smilies'] : true,
	);

you can see that tehre is a comment above 'hide_box' that says 'Shall the box be hidden on page load.' In mine it is set to false because I had already changed it to be opened at page load, but when you install the mod it is originally set to true, simply erase 'true' and replace it with 'false' (no quotes).

Now when I was installing QR I ran into a problem with acually getting it to show up in my theme. (AcidTech) which is a subsilver2 based style. The problem was it didn't have a button. So I made one to match my Theme and I set in the imageset.cfg in phpbbroot/styles/acidtech/imageset/en/ . All I had to do was to add img_button_quick_reply = button_quick_reply.gif*20*103 to the bottom. Now if you want to remove the button and make the box permenent all you have to do is remove the img_button_quick_reply = button_quick_reply.gif*20*103 (or whatever the image link is in the file) and refresh the imageset and you should have no button, whether the text stays there I have to check. I'll post either way.

Thank you.

I did check the file, and it was set to false already. And my problem is that it shows up at the top but not at the bottom, its not as I suppose in the post that it was completely hidden.

Here is the image of my forum:

[ElementalWarrior]

Post me a screenie. Chances are you just placed the edit in the wrong place in one of the files. I'll try to help out 2morrow. I g2g to sleep

[nlhma]

Thank you. I did post the image (It is a little hard to recognize since it has the same color with the forum). I did check the steps twice, and I did not find out what I did wrong.

[danmax]

Element - you are most kind with your help. I hope you stick around here for a while and help us out. Thanks!

Here is the image of my forum:

I think it's because you set the mod in viewtopic_body.html searching the FIRST occurrence of {L_POST_REPLY}... instead of the second one.

The add part of this section applies on SECOND occurrence of that, near line 243 of file viewtopic_body.html

NOW, my own question:

I'd like the mod ALWAYS ACTIVE, i.e. the quick reply box ALWAYS SHOWN... I don't need any toggle for my users

Anyone can suggest me what should I have to modify?

I try just to comment the javascript functions... and didn't worked...

Thank you

Hi guys...
I need my quick reply to be only on 50% of the page, not 100%..
In subsilver I did it with no problems, but in prosilver, no matter where I put width="50%" , the result is null..
Can anyone help???

[trefex]

That's because RC8 changed the way it does buttons

This is what the instructions said to add:

buttons.css:

Code: Select all

.quick-reply-icon, .quick-reply-icon a	{ background: transparent none 0 0 no-repeat; }

Here's how I modified it:

Code: Select all

.quick-reply-icon span	{ background: transparent none 0 0 no-repeat; }

I did the same for colours.css.

Also, on view_topic.html

You need to change this:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_QR_ENABLED --><div class="quick-reply-icon"><a href="javascript:toggle_quick_reply();"><span>{L_QUICK_REPLY}</span></a></div><!-- ENDIF -->

To this:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_QR_ENABLED --><div class="quick-reply-icon"><a href="javascript:toggle_quick_reply();" title="{L_QUICK_REPLY}"><span></span>{L_QUICK_REPLY}</a></div><!-- ENDIF -->

(thanks to karlsemple for the help and tips! )

This works. Could be updated like this in the instructions....

[Hotwire]

Im using theme proBl@ck and I cannot get this to work, the buttons just do not show up,

Im using phpbb3 3.0.0 Gold and Iv followed the updated good_version.zip file and instructions, as well as the ones above, but neither of them get the button to show up.

What am I missing?

[deltatsunami]

how do you refresh all the styles? (sorry)
EDIT: nevermind, i found out, but it still doesn't work. I've done everything corrrectly as stated (purged the cache, uploaded all the files, edited the files, etc.)

Thank you so much. I figure out that the first one is for the quick reply on top, and the second one is for it at the bottom.

[nlhma]

One more question. I do not allow guest posting, so could anyone show me how to disable the quick reply for guest? And also, if possible, could anyone show me how to have smilies and other functions on quick reply?

Thank you!

Smilies add-on is in the same downloaded zip file... "contrib" folder

[NoDeity]

With this mod quick reply work on my forum gold 3.0.0

Thanks. That worked for me, too.
