=Quick Quote for Quick Reply=
What does it do?
I was unsatisfied with the new multiquote addition to vBulletin and was wanting a truly quick and easy quoting method, primarily one that worked with Quick Reply since the others are quite workable.
So this is what I came up with. It's used simply by highlighting a post's text with your mouse. The highlighted text is transferred to Quick Reply as a formatted quote. To clear the highlighted text, click OUTSIDE the currently highlighted area or it'll add the quote again. So if you want to quote multiple posts (especially parts of multiple posts) instead of faffing around with quote or multiquote you just go down the page highlighting each bit of text you want to quote. Much better!
I wrote it for my own forum which unfortunately isn't open yet so you can't try before you buy, but you can get an idea from the http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/attach/images/65509.jpg.
Instructions
Upload quickquote.js to your forum's clientscript folder.
Go to AdminCP > Style Manager > Edit Templates and...
Open the SHOWTHREAD template:
FIND:
Code:
</head>
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/quickquote.js"></script>
Open the POSTBIT template:
FIND:
Code:
<div id="post_message_$post[postid]"> $post[message] </div>
Code:
<div id="post_message_$post[postid]" onmouseup="quickquote('$post[musername]', '$post[postid]');">
$post[message]
</div>
Notes:
- Does NOT work with the WYSIWYG quick reply editor. Same problem I had with another modification, I still can't for the life of me work out how to get text to transfer to it. Offers of a solution most welcome.
