It's a simple enhancements how quote BBcode shows itself.
In case that there's author's name and postid of quoted post, whole text (phrase plus authors name) becomes link, not just small image at the end of text. Many users don't know that this small image is actually link to original post, but with this, they maybe start use it more often.
Example is here:
On my site links in posts are red at the moment, so it's obvious what's a link, and what isn't. In code I left both image (first for quoting and second image that originally is a link to original post)
To achieve this, you first need to find template bbcode_quote
Then you need to find this code:
and replace it with this code:
If you want, you could remove one or both images.
If you apply it, because posts are cached, only new posts will reflect this change immediately. So, you need to post new post with some quoted text with authors name and postid to see how it looks like on your site.
