Quick Reply In Only One Theme?

[Former Member]

Hi. Is there an easy way to have the quick reply thing in only one theme? Like, without having to manually edit each theme to not have it?

Not that I know of. Quick reply is handled through a combination of this variable in the Thread layout template:

$[quick_reply]
And this setting in Forum Settings, under "Boards & Threads":



On any theme that you don't want quick reply to appear, you'll have to remove or comment out the variable from the layout template.

I guess you could also have a plugin that removes quick reply, and have it inactive on the theme where you want quick reply to appear.

$(function() {
 (function removeQuickReply() {
   $('.container.quick-reply').remove();
 })();
});

I like this. It's elegant. By enabling the Quick Reply in the forum settings and selecting which themes on which it's being hidden, the control is in a single location.

A brute-force method would be to enable the Quick Reply then place this in the Global Header or Global Footer:<style>
/* Hide Quick Reply on all themes */
.container.quick-reply{display:none;}
</style>
Then add this to the bottom of the Style Sheet for the theme(s) where the Quick Reply is desired./* Force display of Quick Reply on this theme only */
.container.quick-reply{display:block!important;}

This takes an additional move but it would accomplish the task.

Ah thanks. I didn't think about that.
