okay, I am finding this type of info more and more important and
have not seen it here at Snitz yet. The mod is so easy I will
just post it in this thread.

basically what it does is give more information when quoting to
a reply than just the word quote:. this mod, more of a
tweak will also give the origianl authors name, date and time
of the original post.

I've been using this with 3.1 and 3.3

demo:

Poor Raich, everytime a mod comes out that she likes she asks if it can work with 3.1. If it doesn't she goes through the trouble of trying to get it to work with 3.1.
Kinda makes one feel guilty that we couldn't do it for the 3.1 version too.

I'm not understanding? I posted that it works in 3.1 and 3.3??? Maybe I am missing the point... I'm so confused now

anyone install this yet or was it really that simple??.... or worse... no one cares for it. . .

There is an error in the mod, at least for me. Say I click on the quote button and type a message. When it is posted, it looks just fine and works great. Now say I click on the edit button of the message I quoted, it doesn't display correctly. Is this me or is there an error in the code somewhere?

I got the same problem here; turns out there's something wrong in the instructions. You're told to make two additions in inc_functions.asp, the second one reads:

 
'reply with original author details
fString = replace(fString, "[quote-", "<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=" & strFooterFontSize & " face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ id=quote>quote from ", 1, -1, 1)
fString = doCode(fString, "-]", "[/quote]", ":<hr size=1 noshade id=quote>", "<hr size=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=" & strDefaultFontSize & " id=quote>")
'reply with original author details


On the second line of this insertion, where it reads "size=1", that should be "height=1" (two occurrences).

Great MOD by the way, wonder why this hasn't been in the baseline forum from the start! The more because Snitz Forums doesn't give you a graphical display, with indents, of who replied to whom.

Cheers,

Eric.

I apologize for the screw up and yes, instead of size=1 use height=1. I had originally modified my quote statement before this because I wanted a hairline horizontal rule so I changed it to size=1. when I did this mod I thought I changed everything back to height=1 so it would not interrupt your normal quote tag. I will edit the text file tonight when I get home for work but that WILL fix it.

again, my apologies

I get most of my little ideas from other forums like UBB, INFOPOP and IKONBOARD which by the way has a decent little forum out now. In fact I was thinking of taking this a step further and doing the quote by author like IkonBoard where they use tables instead of horizontal rules.
