vB Version: 3.6.x Rating: (2 votes - 5.00 average) Installs: 18
Released: 02 Mar 2008 Last Update: 02 Mar 2008 Downloads: 99
Not Supported Uses Plugins Template Edits Re-usable Code Translations  

Originally chartered by another vBulletin.org member, I thought this one would be useful to a few, so here it is.

This mod works just like the forumjump, but when you select the forum, you immediately jump to post a new thread in the selected forum.

Instructions

1. Upload the product XML

2. Insert the variable $quickthread anywhere in your templates where you want this modification to appear.

Note: The default plugin hook location is global_start (for noobs). If you're skilled enough, and you're placing this modification somewhere specific, you can easily modify the hook location to your liking.

This looks AWESOME - I've had new Members register and can't seem to find how to post a thread?!?!? Weird if you ask me - but anyway - this should help immensely!

Thanx for sharing!

Jacquii.

Looks good - but would be so much better if there's options to include which forums are listed in the menu AND for forums that aren't open for posts to be unclickable. When you click those forums - the "Sorry! This forum is not accepting new posts." message is shown...

ALSO - how can it be used on vBadvanced pages? Is there a global variable to use?

As an FYI: Uncached templates: cb_quickthread (1)

It's a mini-mod, not something I want to invest a lot of time in.

global_start, the default.

OK - Thanx
Anyway - the global variable is quickthread
Question: how can I get the uncached template to be cached? See the screenshot:



Again - Thanx for the sharing - This is a wonderful addition to JPiC
Already I've had tons of people complement us for making navigation that much easier.

Jacquii.

This is great but I am trying to align it to the right my forums (where the quick forum jump is set).. At the moment it is automatically set to the left. I have tried aligning it in the template to the right but to no success. Any other ideas how to do this? Thanks.

You could put it in a table...
In the template cb_quickthread
Add at the beginning:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.


Add at the end:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

I suppose it would make a difference exactly where you're putting the $quickthread variable though... For instance if you're putting in in the SHOWTHREAD template --- you could simply find:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And add directly below:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Anyway - Hope this helps...

Jacquii.

Thanks alot it worked... But I did however have the Quick Thread directly right next to the Forum jump so all I did was made a new code:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Adding the <tr> tags and placing it above:
Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Now it is above the forum jump to the right, instead of next to it. Thanks alot for the help

Nice Job.

I'm trying to find a variation of this that allows you to select the forum you which to post directly on the "Post New Thread" page, perhaps as a drop down.

Any ideas?

Great hack. This will make it much easier for me to post news in different forums without having to switch forums each time.
