Dear Members...

Since we have some threads such as This Or That, Movie Names Game, Word Association, Guess the song... and other threads, I am suggesting to make a quick reply in the end of the thread... I got this idea from omanserv And I think that it would be useful...:)

I think he means by putting the reply column ready at the end of
each thread, so u can just fill up the column.
Is that right?
And I think it's a good idea.

Very useful feature actually. Saves time for the members whom just want to reply without using fancy features (faster).

I've attached the file with the 3 steps to add this quick feature. Simple to add though.

In Step 1, make sure you backup the file "showthread.php" found in your root of the forum directory.

Secondly, put in mind, if you want to disable the "signature" from showing everytime from a quick reply, you need to look at this code in step 2.


<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="postreply">
<input type="hidden" name="threadid" value="$threadid">
<input type="hidden" name="title" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="iconid" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="parseurl" value="yes">
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="disablesmilies" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="closethread" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="hiddenreply" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="signature" value="yes">
<input type="hidden" name="rating" value="0">

See the 2nd last line? set the value="yes" to value="no". for name="signature". You can figure the rest though, from playing with them.

Let me know if you got stuck somewhere.
