Anyway, just a word of warning: This patch was re-written for CVS. So, implement it if you need QR in FUDforum 2.8.x. However, if you want to see how it will eventually look, you need to checkout the code from CVS.</td>[/tr]</table>

You pretty much lost me after "Warning": But learning more about CVS is # 1653 on my to-do list but I will expedite it some.

I have already switched over entirely to ver 2.8.1, and by this time next month I will have deleted all my files related to previous versions even backups as being obsolete.

Plus I managed to succeed in installing "Quick Reply" manually from the file you uploaded on the 12th, and I think I like it...Maybe a lot! You all did good!

Two points of note: 1st  the current  version uses "post_quick_reply.png" as the default image button file, will that remain in the final version? Or will "quick_ reply.gif" be used as in the current default buttons?

Let me know and I can change the colorized versions of the quick reply buttons to png and or rename them as you require.

2nd naudefj commented in the read me note included "Create "Quick Reply" buttons (the current English button needs to be improved)" but does not say what improvements are needed.

Looking at it I'm guessing the text needs to be a bit bolder, if so will this suffice? [img]index.php?t=getfile&id=5677&private=0[/img]

Naudefj built upon my original patch (and I'm happy he did so Smile

). When I wrote the add-on I figured people who understood how to install it would be able to customize it for their own use. Therefore, I did not attempt any localization (I only speak English). So the static "Quick Reply" button was a quick hack. I matched it as best I could to the other FUDForum buttons, but I'm not a graphic artist.

Personally, I think the icon on the button needs to be specific to the feature. I just used the icon from the "Post Reply" button. The text of the quick reply button also needs to match the text of the other buttons (font, font size, and capitalization). I don't think the file type matters much here. The image isn't big enough to have a noticeable size difference between png and gif.

The QR solution in CVS doesn't use any buttons. The editor can be minimized/contracted and maximized/expanded with the +/- controls you see in front of messages.

Ok so that makes the whole quick reply button issue moot.

Not necessarily, users can style it any way they like. If they want a button, I'm sure they will find yours handy.
