i've seen many phpBB powered fora to have a quick reply feature (a small box at the end of each thread to post a reply quickly without having to go to a separate page). It's very helpful, especially when you are behing a loaded connection :-P.


Can we enable that feature here too?

I know what you mean, but don't think it exists here. I'll take another look though.

This is actually a fairly easy thing to implement.  I put one in my own forums, and it required modifying only three files.  If you want to set this up I can email you the mod file.

Sorry, just want to bring this one to your attention again.  I usually don't bump, but I feel okay with a 5 month buffer.

Quarterly semi-obligatory bump/beg for this feature:

Seriously, at this point I'd be willing to give finely diced pieces of my anatomy to see this feature implemented.  Or cash, right?  Everyone likes cash.  Put in a quick reply feature, and I'll see about getting you some cash.  Nice, nice, cash.

It's not a forum feature that I can find.

Easy to find. ;)  I should have replied sooner but I guess I didn't see this topic.. anyway here you go:
http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/4733
or if you want to see some other similar ones, which probably mostly aren't as good as that one in my opinion as it sounds: search results.

Please note that to install this you'll need FTP access, a Notepad equivalent, and to be willing to do a few minutes of work.  Quick Reply mods are easy to install and should only take about one or two files to be edited I think, in comparison to other mods which can take half an hour or longer.

Basically, if it's not stock I can't implement it. Best idea would be to PM John about this.

Yeah, he's probably a pretty busy man though seeing as how he rarely posts here anymore.. I'd do it myself for you guys, but like I said, it requires FTP access, and FTP access requires an incredible amount of trust-- I wouldn't give that kind of access to anyone here if I were him except to maybe ChiQ since she's also a recognized admin.
