2 Questions. 1 about ads and one about replying to posts

[nerdygrl]

1. If i buy the Ad free upgrade, does that mean none of my members will see ads too? I want to keep my forum 100% ad free

2. I cannot stand how when i hit reply it takes me to ANOTHER page and then i have to hit post again. Is there anyway to disable this and only have quick reply??

Ad-free is for the entire forum. You can configure the settings such that everyone viewing the forum sees it without ads OR such that only logged-in members will see the forum without ads. Your choice.

ProBoards+ is a personal plan. That is for just the individual and will cover every proboards.com, freeforums.net, and boards.net forum they visit.

For future reference, it's preferred that you create separate threads for separate, unrelated issues.

If you dislike the standard Reply, you can simply scroll down to the bottom of the page and use the Quick Reply.

If you're the forum owner and want to only have Quick Reply, I can write some CSS that will hide the Reply button on your forum.

nerdygrl, just so you know there are some things that are not available in the Quick Reply such as attachments and polls so you may not wish to suppress/hide the Reply button.

I use the Quick Reply all the time, but have also renamed the Reply button to Full Reply Editor so I don't subconsciously click Reply thinking that will make the post.

You can add this code to your Global Header to change the button text:
<script>
   $(document).ready (function () {
   $('a.reply-button').text('Full Reply Editor');
   });
</script>

I just wanted to add that there is a Plugin called [Quick Reply BBCode Buttons] which will add BBCode Buttons, to the Quick Reply area. That way you can quickly reply while using BBCode. Only issue is that you won't be able to preview it.

You're welcome. Another thing I forgot to mention about the "downside", to that Plugin, if you have Custom Smilies they will not appear in the Quick Reply's BBCode section. That Plugin just uses the default BBCode.
