just something I was experimenting with when I got bored
it's a simple script that just loads the text from a quote and puts it into the quick reply textbox

code:

I tested it on PunBB version and it works!

Thank you! I find this very useful.

This is a nice plugin, as it makes quoting a lot faster !

It should work on every forum version, so long as the templates aren't modified.

I have some suggestions though :

1. I think the target element is a problem, as it's getting cut off on my one forum. I'd recommend scrolling to this anchor since it's right above the quick reply :

Code:

document.anchors.quickreply

2. .sceditor-container textarea only affects Source mode, not WYSIWYG mode. So, I would recommend setting a sceditor instance on the GET request :

Code:

$.get($(this).attr("href"), function(data) {
  var instance = $('#text_editor_textarea').sceditor('instance');

  instance.insert(quote_text_info + "\n");
  instance.focus();
});

This way, it'll affect both source AND WYSIWYG mode. Check out this documentation for modifications to the SCEditor : http://www.sceditor.com/api/sceditor/


3. I'd change the textarea element in the GET request to #text_editor_textarea as that's the main id for the message editor. If someone has a textarea in the widgets for example, it'll also get this value which is why you should look for specifics or the first instance.


With those suggestions it'll look something like this :

Code:

$(function() {
 
  $(".i_icon_quote").parent().click(function(e) {

    $.get(this.href, function(data) {
     
      var quote_text_info = $('#text_editor_textarea', data).val(),
          instance = $("#text_editor_textarea").sceditor("instance");

      instance.insert(quote_text_info + "\n");
     
      $("html, body").animate({ scrollTop: $(document.anchors.quickreply).offset().top }, 1000, function() {
        instance.focus();
      });

    });
   
    e.preventDefault();

  });

});

Regardless, keep up the good work !
