Major Quotations extension update

Bergamot

Crypt: Redownload it.

Crypt

still getting the same error

uzi

OK, new idea:

by clicking on the "quote"-Button browser should go down to the text-field...

Bergamot

It could do that, but I'd be a little worried that it would be dislocating and annoy anyone who wanted to quote multiple people.

I think all that would be necessary would be to add

href="#pgbottom"
to the quote link

lech

leave it as a user option then? (i've been suggesting this a ton lately, but it makes sense) :P

uzi

yeah, ok. user should decide

Bergamot

If by "user option" you mean "user can change the code if they feel like it" then yes, that's what it is

lech

hehe, I meant more like have an optional checkbox in account settings, but whatever :D

uzi

if checkbox is doable, it's better

I don't suppose there is a way to quote a post from other than the last page (where the comment box is displayed).

Minisweeper

Not yet. This is in discussion elsewhere at the moment.

iamtheari

Cool, thanks.

I've been playing around with this extension along with the better bbcode extension and the signatures extension and I've come to a little problem that I cant seem to fix. If someone has a signature it also gets quoted, Is there somehow I could replace the "[span class=CommentSignature]persons signature[/span]" with nothing? Also, If someone did the [color=red]red text[/color] and then got quoted it would quote like this within the comment box -- [span style=color: red;]red text[/span] would there be a way to get that to go the correct bbcodes for it? or maybe just strip out the [span] bbcodes there?

a question:

if i press the quote button, should the page jump to the last page an quote the comment!? or work the extension only on the last page?

jeffbax

Any plans for this to ignore attachments?

I'd love to see the text 'quote' be translatable.

Still have some problems using the quote function. After clicking on "quote" the text appears in my text box wrapped up in < blockquote > and < cite > tags. Unfortunately, after sending my comment, the tags are not interpreted. The code shows up like : <blockquote><cite>Posted By: ans so on. Any suggestions ?

@Ignicoccus
Did you check the "html" option under the comment textearea?

Ignicoccus

@Max_B I don't have a "html" option under the comment textarea in my installation. Do I have to switch this on somewhere ?

Would it be possible for the script to select the HTML button automatically?
