[Done 1.4.x/1.5.x] Quick-Reply box v1.5.3

[1979Z28]

My suggestion, since he hasn't replied in months, is just live with the Quick Reply being shown to guests. If you're disabled Guest Posting, then they can't post, so there's no harm done

[Anguz]

if you don't want quick-reply shown to guests, it could be as simple as wrapping the code for it in display with this condition

Code Select Expand

if ($username != 'Guest'){

//quick-reply code here

}

haven't tried it though, so it may not work

[Cerberus]

My main problem was that guest were able to reply and nothing was shown as their name. I've added a hidden input "Guest" and now all's ok. (they reply, but they have a name )

Anguz, thanks for your input .

Cerberus, sorry for my late reply. I thought only USERS were able to see the quick-reply box, because you have to check the checkbox on your profile-page...

Guests don't see a quick-reply box...

I think there's something wrong with your code...

[Shadow's Pawn]

Guests do not see it on my board either...

Cerberus, aren't you using Pfabb?  If so, there is a different version that you have to use that is updated to be compatible with Pfabb.  You'll find it on lunabyte.

Hi there sylvester!
I've already solved the problem, anyway thanks for your input. Yes, I'm using a pfabb-compatible quick reply (the one from memphisto_kur). My main problem was that guest were able to reply and nothing was shown as their name. So I have 100s of posts with "" as author. And when somebody quotes a such guest, quotes aren't properly displayed. Now I'll have to invent a  mysql query to solve this issue.

Guests don't see the quick-reply box. Perhaps mephisto_kur didn't port it correctly.

that isn't that hard.

Code Select Expand

UPDATE PREFIXmessages SET PosterName='Guest' WHERE PosterName='';

_{I haven't checked the tabelstructure at the moment, so I'm not sure that code is working.}

sure? I'm using pfabb

[BrandonMiller]

ok, I did it and it worked..

for a minute now it is just gone  

I don't get it, any suggestions? I don't get any errors or anything. I even re-uploaded all the files and it still simply is not there?

[Shadow's Pawn]

Make sure it is enabled in your profile and that you ran the database modification.

[BrandonMiller]

I ran the mod (if I try to re-run it says it exists) and it really did work. The only thing I could figure out is one user turned it off and now it isn't even a check box in the mod or admin sections, there is no record of it anywhere??

[BrandonMiller]

ok, I am at a loss...

I just re-uploaded the mod'd files.. again..

it doesn't show and there is no check box in the profile or in the admin/mod sections to turn it on? It worked at first then one user turned it off now nobody can see it, not even me! (admin)

Is there a switch somewhere in the files?

[sylvester]

Check your PM!

[Cerberus]

Hi sylvedster!
I've solved all my problems. thanks for the help

[rinspeed]

I have the same problem as the last member.

I installed the mod, it installed everything ok.

But there is no tickbox anywhere in the admin section. I also modified the language file.

How to enable the quick reply option??

OR do I have to use some package manager, where everything is done for me??
