Hey,

Great job on this extension. It is very handy.

Can we get some more options at all? Some I can think of are as follows:

Group effected: Select which group(s) are effected by the template, unaffected groups will not get the posting template.

Effect Sub forums?: Select yes to effect all sub forums of the forum or select no to only effect topics directly in the forum.

That's all I can think of that would seem rather handy. Thank you so much for this extension, great work

Thanks,
Dylan

I would like to keep it very simple. Also in terms of on how to use.

Does anyone know of a similar extension (or MOD) that would apply to "replies" instead of just "new topics"?

My forum is being used for Data Entry at my workplace, so a brief "Information Template" for specific locations would be helpful.

Each topic is it's own location, so a template that is strictly for new topics isn't ideal for my application. If it were to be able to be applied to the replies (which are daily log entries), that would be extremely helpful in aligning data between work shifts.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Whoops! double post. You can ignore this.

You can make this extension do that. When installed if you edit the event\listener.php file and find this

Code: Select all

if ($mode == 'post'
            && !$submit && !$preview && !$load && !$save && !$refresh
            && empty($post_data['post_text']) && empty($post_data['post_subject'])
            && $this->config_text->get('marttiphpbb_postingtemplate_forum[' . $forum_id . ']'))

and replace it with this

Code: Select all

if (($mode == 'post' || $mode == 'reply')
            && !$submit && !$preview && !$load && !$save && !$refresh
            && empty($post_data['post_text']) && $this->config_text->get('marttiphpbb_postingtemplate_forum[' . $forum_id . ']'))

then replies will also have the posting template stuff as set for the forum specified for new posts as well as for replies.

This extension has no column in the forums table. A quick Google search reveals the column forum_post_tpl is from the MOD Posting Template.

Would be nice to to have an option to apply this on the subforums of a forum where template is being done so that every new reply to certain topic starts with template. Same goes for auto removal of a text when clicked in the field for writing as option. Thanks.

Why not make the posting template like a forum your input text into fields like filling out an application.
