Thank Paul

This is a note to everyone installing this MOD who also use my Quote Post Back Link MOD. When install this MOD you'll find a conflict where both MOD add code after the same find.
I'll post some additional instruction later, which explain how you can get around this issue.

So when i quote a post than the quoted area wil contain a link to the orginal post?

[Erik Frèrejean]

No to the user who posted. I'm at work right now so can't get some screen shots. I'll see if I have time to do this later today.

No! only after the first one, unless the instructions says something els

So you need to add the code to your post to get it to work?

It won’t function automatically with ANY quote?

My users will not take the time to add that code....they are really lazy

What code?

[Erik Frèrejean]

That are the installation instructions, you as administrator of the board have to make those file changes in order to install the MOD. Your users don't have to do anything.

[DragonMaster1]

OH...ok

I’ll give it a try and see how it works

THANx

2 problems with the install

there is NO root/includes/mods/functions_qubl.php
To: includes/mods/functions_qubl.php

mods are NOT in includes

Then the 1st line of the code for includes/bbcode.php is add after: }

There are numerous }

Which one to use?

Yes there is. The first is in the MOD package and you have to copy that file to the given location in your phpBB installations

mods are NOT in includes

I'm not fully sure what you mean by that, but MODs can contain includes. Its even a good practice to put as much of the MOD code in other files to maintain as much of the phpBB core code as possible.

Installation instructions always go from top to bottom for the given file, thus the find clause always reflects the first occurrence in the file.

[DragonMaster1]

OK....now I see how it installs and it links the previous profile nicely

Good Mod
