Reply Button In Posts And Recent Posts Question(s)

[Alan Vende]

Sorry if I'm not doing this correctly. I read the rules, though, but they were a bit confusing -- I'm new to adding Plugins to my Proboards (new in the sense that I have to reacquaint myself with it; I haven't added on in a while so I haven't had any need to come here and ask for help, so I'm sorry if I'm not following the rules, but the plugin instructions said if I needed any help to create a thread here, so I am.

I added the plugin today and I checked my forum after I added it and it still had the Reply where it is by default on the top of the thread, as shown in the picture. Is there a way to be able to take that out and just have the reply button next to the Quote one?

Thanks!

Edit: The screenshot of what I am seeing on my board now is in the Attachements area; I want to take out that reply in the black boarder and have it just black, like the second picture.

Picture 1 is on the left, with the reply button. Picture 2 is on the right with no reply button, which is what I would like to have because there's already a reply button next to the Quote button. Would this require a custom Plugin? (That's all I want to know -- I don't mean to make this look like a plugin request thread.)

You can remove that button quite easily just by modifying one of the layout templates.

Take a look at Admin > Themes > Layout Templates and then open the Thread template.

Look for this block of code, which should be near the top:

{if $[reply_button]}
<ul class="controls"><li>$[reply_button]</li></ul>
{/if}

Removing that block of code will do what you're asking.

You could also comment out the code by placing <!-- and --> at the start and end of the block of code, like so:

<!--{if $[reply_button]}
<ul class="controls"><li>$[reply_button]</li></ul>
{/if}-->

This achieves the same result, but it just makes it a little bit easier if you want to add the button back in at any point down the line. If you want to add the button back in, just remove the <!-- and -->.
