Hello.
I have hidden "Quick replay" and therefore I don't need the "Quick edit" button.
What should I do to display the "Modify" button instead of the "Quick edit" button?
Quick reply and quick edit are two different things.
Sir Osis of Liver, the "Quick edit" button is not working on my forum right now: I click on it and nothing happens. I understand that the command is passed to the "Quick replay" window. Or am I wrong?
No, it opens an edit window in the post, not in quick reply. Try it here. Are you seeing any errors in forum error log?
If you have javascript disabled in your browser, nothing will happen when you click quick edit.
Sir Osis of Liver, I hid the "Quick Reply" window with a tip from this topic, message #14: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?msg=4143361
After that, the "Quick edit" button stopped working.

I'm just a user and sometimes I go to the Admin Panel, so I don't know where to look.
If quick edit is not working, then the forum either has broken Javascript or you have Javascript turned off in your browser.
If you edited code, then you probably broke something
Does quick edit work for you in this topic?
Edit: test of quick edit
Yep.
Well, the question is for the OP to try it here, to determine if it's a browser issue. I know it works for you, Steve.
Sorry, excuse the interruption. :P
The "Quick edit" button stops working when I hide the "Quick replay".
If I don't hide the "Quick replay", then the "Quick edit" button works.

Confirmed, that edit breaks quit edit.
Some script must be inside that sub_template?
I guess the edit should be different.
Not finding it. >:(
I only see some quote references ???
Would need to test it later.
Could also use this mod to hide the quick reply: https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=4351
index.css
/* Styles for the quick reply area. */
#quickreply {
clear: both;
display: none;
}

That does not redirect the quote function to the full editor, it would just silently fail.
Yes, you'd pointed that out once before. Forgot that, too. :(
So you can't remove quick reply without fixing the redirect.
Diego's mod does that, use the mod.
Yes, the "Enhanced Quick Reply" MOD solved the problem.
But I would like to make more changes. I would like the "Modify" button to be displayed so that it is visible, and not so that the visitor navigates through "MORE..." in the menu.
Кнопку "Quick edit" или вообще удалить (так хотелось бы) или если удалить нельзя, то спрятать в меню "MORE...".
How to do it?
The "Quick edit" button or delete it altogether (I would like to), or if you can't delete it, then hide it in the "MORE..." menu.

You're starting to getting into redesigning the system. For these type of questions, they should really be asked here: SMF Coding Discussion (https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=60.0)
So basically you want to replace Quick Edit with Modify? (Not a bad idea.)

personally, I think it's a terrible idea. most of the time, when I modify an existing message, I want it done INLINE, without another pageload
I think it's more a matter of experience level. If you're running a forum that's populated by people who are unfamiliar with forums, or you have an older membership, a simpler ui makes life easier for them. Once you've removed quick reply and quick edit, all post edits are done in the reply post editor, so it's always the same. This is one of those things where it's really up to the forum owner and his members to decide if it's a good or bad idea. It doesn't break anything, and is simple to undo.
Of course, that's why I prefaced the statement with "personally, in think..."
