I haven't fiddled in the test site at all, but just a quick note with the gripe I have with the current forums and the Quick Reply.
Is it necessary to click a 'Quick Reply' icon in the thread, or can this be set up to just cilck on this box and start replying? Every time I go to quick reply I click this box, then find I have to go find a QR button. I know it's something that should be adapted, but it'd be more user friendly to just click in here and type away. (sorry if that got muddled up, I haven't had a coffee yet this morning...)

Alfonzo: I have always thought it a bit strange too. I'm not sure what the design idea behind it was. I seem to remember something about the code needing to know to which post you are actually replying. Not sure, but I can look into it.Originally Posted by Alfonzo
That's odd, because I just clicked my post to quick reply to, when I'm actually replying to yours, and there's no notification or reference to either one! lol!!

thats cause you have to 'tick' the box that says "quote message in reply?" in the bottom left corner of the page - otherwise it just posts whatever you type and nothing elseThat's odd, because I just clicked my post to quick reply to, when I'm actually replying to yours, and there's no notification or reference to either one! lol!!

Bassy: I have changed the number of images you can use. It was set at 4. So you can now use more smilies.
Alfonzo: Quoting Admin panel option regarding the post icon...
Require Click for Quick Reply
If you set this option to 'no', users will not have to click the Quick Reply icon in order to type a message in the quick reply box.
However, this will be at the expense of the usefulness of the Threaded and Hybrid view modes, as the system will not know to which post a user is replying, so the threaded view will become non-sensical.
Ahhh ok, thanks for that then, that bit makes sense
