I would like a "Reply" button possibly beside the "Reply with Quote" button so members wouldn't have to scroll to the bottom of the page (or scroll back to the top of the page) to click on the "Reply to Topic" link. Has someone possibly already done this?

New members almost always have difficulty knowing how to reply to a topic because, when reading the replies, they look at the row of buttons within the replies and don't see a "button" to click on.

Thanks, Weboo, but I didn't use Carefree's icon. He's always so kind to include new icons but he knows I create my own. I don't use the standard Snitz icons either.


Here's a graphic, below, showing some of the icon/buttons I use:
Share Link to Post, View Member's Profile, Email Member, View Member's HomePage, Edit Reply, Google Talk, Skype, Submit to Hall of Fame, Add Member to Friends List, Bookmark This Reply/Add to Favorites, Send Member a Private Message, Reply, Reply with Quote, Delete Reply.



Obviously, I wanted there to be no doubt as to how to reply to a post.

As you can see here (scroll down in that post), my forum is very different from the standard Snitz forum.

A slightly better quote image is this one:

Feel free to use it

It makes sense realy and should resolve an issue we constantly have where members have a habit of hitting the 'Reply with Quote' button to reply to a post quoting the above posts all the time which is annoying and not needed.
I can see the confusion though from a members' perspective as the 'Reply to Topic' button is the same as the 'Reply with Quote' button on a standard Snitz install

Oh wow! Thank you so much, Carefree! It works PERFECT!

I had to change the "strIconReplyTopic" to "strIconReply" for it to work for me.

I really appreciate you, Carefree!

"topic.asp"


Look for the following line (appx 826):

		Response.Write	"                       <a href=""post.asp?method=TopicQuote&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & "&FORUM_ID=" & Forum_ID & """>" & getCurrentIcon(strIconReplyTopic,"Reply with Quote","align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""6""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine

Change it to say:

		Response.Write	"                       <a href=""post.asp?method=Reply&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & "&FORUM_ID=" & Forum_ID & """>" & getCurrentIcon(strIconReplyTopic,"Reply","align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""6""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine
		Response.Write	"                       <a href=""post.asp?method=TopicQuote&TOPIC_ID=" & TOPIC_ID & "&FORUM_ID=" & Forum_ID & """>" & getCurrentIcon(strIconReplyQuote,"Reply with Quote","align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""6""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine

Look for the following line (appx 623):

				Response.Write	"                       <a href=""post.asp?method=ReplyQuote&REPLY_ID=" & Reply_ReplyID & "&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & "&FORUM_ID=" & Forum_ID & """>" & getCurrentIcon(strIconReplyTopic,"Reply with Quote","align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""6""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine

Change it to say:

				Response.Write	"                       <a href=""post.asp?method=Reply&REPLY_ID=" & Reply_ReplyID & "&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & "&FORUM_ID=" & Forum_ID & """>" & getCurrentIcon(strIconReplyTopic,"Reply","align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""6""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine
				Response.Write	"                       <a href=""post.asp?method=ReplyQuote&REPLY_ID=" & Reply_ReplyID & "&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & "&FORUM_ID=" & Forum_ID & """>" & getCurrentIcon(strIconReplyQuote,"Reply with Quote","align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""6""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine


"inc_iconfiles.asp"


Look for the following line (appx 109):

Const strIconReplyTopic = "icon_reply_topic.gif|15|15"

Above it, insert this:

Const strIconReplyQuote = "icon_quote.png|15|15"


Finally, add the following icon to your images folder, saved as "icon_quote.png"
