Quote button for Guest

Hi All

Is anyway we enable quote button for Guest to quote ?


Thanks

If guests are allowed to post on your forum, they should be able to see all the buttons in the topic.  Could you post a link to a topic that guests can reply to.

I did a test on my forum and the quote button doesn't appear even if guest posting is allowed. I can make a javascript code to add that functionality if you post your forum link and a link to a topic that guests can see here.

Guests are only allowed to post, but they do not have full access as members do.

Actually the links for quoting are active, but there are no buttons for them.

Are you saying there is no image for the button?

When you click on the quote button on this forum for example, it redirects you to https://help.forumotion.com/post?p=POSTID&mode=quote, where POSTID is the id of the post you are quoting. If a guest can post, they can manually type that page in the bar and quote a post that way, despite the fact that no button appears on the topic page. I am working on a code that adds that button there.

Add this code with placement on topics:

Code:

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(){
if(_userdata.user_id===-1){
var css=".button_guest_quote{float:right;background:#00689A;color:white !important;padding:5px;font-size:15px;}";
var style=document.createElement("style");
style.innerHTML=css;
document.querySelector("head").appendChild(style);
var posts=document.querySelectorAll(".post"), insafter=document.querySelectorAll("h2.topic-title"), len=posts.length, id, button;
if(len!==0){
for(var i=0;i<len;i++){
id=parseInt(posts[i].getAttribute("id").match(/\d+/)[0]);
if(id!==0){
button=document.createElement("a");
button.classList.add("button_guest_quote");
button.innerHTML="Quote";
button.setAttribute("href", "/post?p="+id+"&mode=quote");
insafter[i].parentNode.insertBefore(button, insafter[i].nextSibling);
}
}
}
}
})

Thank You

I will try the code tomorrow

Thank You very much

It works but 1 syntax error

_userdata.user_id===-1

remove extra "="

Actually that code is correct both with 2 "=" and with 3 "=". With 2 "=" it compares the value of _userdata.user_id with -1(-1 meaning that the user is a guest). WIth 3 "=" it compares both the values and the types. In this case, there's no difference between them, but I usually use === because its generally safer than ==. For example, "2"==2 is true, but "2"===2 is false, because "2" is a string and 2 is an integer.

Nonetheless, glad the code works.
