    Sure. You may need to have a delegate added, though. I can add them to the source and they will be available in the next minor upgrade.

    That will be great. If we can extend vanilla as much as possible without changing core files, we won't have trouble in upgrade process.

    Exactly.

    Let me provide simple delegate for this; FILE ./themes/discussion.php; find $DiscussionList .= '</ul> </li>'; ?> at the end of file and replace with; $this->DelegateParameters['Discussion'] = &$Discussion; $this->DelegateParameters['DiscussionList'] = &$DiscussionList; $DiscussionList .= $this->CallDelegate('PostDiscussionOptionsRender'); $DiscussionList .= '</ul> </li>'; ?> I hope you consider this. Thanks

    Okay, I made that change with one minor difference. I just call the delegate, I don't append it to the DiscussionList variable. There is no need since you've made the discussionlist variable a delegate parameter that gets passed by reference. You can see the change in svn here: http://lussumo.com/svn/vanilla/trunk/themes/discussion.php
