Reply Button Relocation

[DeltaDart]

Brian is there a way I could add either a Reply button beside the Quote button inside each post

or just add Reply text at the bottom of each post under my [Back to Top] link?



My members love using the Recent Post link and are asking for this so they can just reply direct from the Recent Post list rather than open the thread.

Hi, DeltaDart.

Go to Structure > Layout Templates > Thread and add this before the line that says $[search].

        {if $[reply_button]}
            <ul class="ui-pagination" style="float: right;"><li class="ui-pagination-page"><a id="pagReply" href="$[reply_button.href]">Reply</a></li></ul>
        {/if}

Whenever I try to add the Reply button, it causes the pagination information to move toward the right, further away from the left-hand margin, when it is supposed to be flush left. What am I doing wrong?

^ Bumping. Does anyone have any tips for me for adding the codes successfully? Please see my problem in the above post. Thank you.

I removed this:
<ul class="controls"><li>$[reply_button]</li></ul>

is that what I need to take out to remove the lower 'reply' button?

jkjpatch I already have that added there along with my Back to Top and To Bottom links (images), that puts it in the Action Bar, not the actual Post.  I'm trying to add it into each post along.

What I am saying is that the << Prev 1 Next >> pagination that is at the left margin moves toward the center of the action bar when I add the Reply code to the Action Bar. I don't know what that's happening. It looks great in your screen shot, but in mine, it scoots over.

See screenshot attachment.

Still looking for help with this adjustment. Thank you.

I'm not sure why yours is doing that. It also does it without the reply button added, so it's definitely not that.

Adding this to your style sheet seems to fix it:

.control-bar .ui-pagination { float: left; }

Thanks so much for the response Brian!

Where do I add this: .control-bar .ui-pagination { float: left; }

Do I add it in addition to any of the following or instead of any of it? Or just anywhere in the style sheet?

Go to Structure > Layout Templates > Thread and add this before the line that says $[search].

        {if $[reply_button]}

            <ul class="ui-pagination" style="float: right;"><li class="ui-pagination-page"><a id="pagReply" href="$[reply_button.href]">Reply</a></li></ul>

        {/if}

That should go directly into your style sheet: Admin > Themes > Colors and Styles > Style Sheet

Thanks Stinky!

Trying to figure out if the info Brian provided is in addition to or instead of the original modification. And if it goes just anywhere on the style sheet or somewhere specific. Coding ain't my thing.

Anything I suggest placing in the style sheet typically goes at the bottom, since it overrides anything previously set by the style sheet.

It uses the same template as threads, so not specifically on that page.

Sorry, I lost you there.  The Pages use the same Thread Template so I can't get it into each Post?

If you placed a Reply button into each post on the Recent Posts page it would also show up in posts in actual threads (like the one you're reading right now. Hi. ).
