Yes! Worked great first try on 2.0RC3. Thanks for a much, much-needed mod. Very useful.

The only issue (non-functionality related) that I have is that I don't get the icons next to the labels... what do I have to do? mquote_remove.gif is in default/images/buttons, but I don't see either that or the icon of the add multi-quote in the forum...

Thanks once more...

[EDIT] Ehm... it worked. For some reason the first couple of times I tried it they wouldn't show up, but now they do :)

That happened because you must clean the cache in order to see the icon

Glad you have it working

If you can make it work with quick reply it'll be great. At the moment it isn't much of an advantage over the standard Post.template.php topic summary listing.

Isn't much of an advantage having with quick reply because I already can quote a lot of posts and all of them go  to the quick reply box

Is there a way to edit the Text it displays? Instead of the long " Add Mluti-Quote " I was hoping to change it to just "Multi-Quote"

True, but if you supply a multi-quote button a lot of people will use it when they want lotsa quotes, then wonder why the quotes aren't appearing in the quick reply. :)

It would be better for all round idiot-proofing if this mod had the same behaviour as the standard quote: display quotes in the quick reply if that is open, otherwise default to Post.template.php.

My 2c. :)

Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php:

$txt['multi_quote'] = 'Add Multi Quote';
$txt['multi_quote_remove'] = 'Remove Multi Quote';

Awesome mod. Most handy. Very needed. Default should have this on SMF. Good work ;)

Only one question or issue. Why does it make the page load lag ?? It lags for a few seconds (like 15) then posts and the quotes pop in the text box.

Because in the Post area this is the less important thing and the quotes are only loaded after all the rest of the page load succesfully

Yeah OK i kinda figured that but thought i would ask anyways. Plus with it being cookie ran so..

Not only that tho it just seems like it has slowed posting page down period. I'll keep a close eye on it for a bit and see what happens and if it stays slower with the full page on a post  page

Thanks for the fast reply tho ;)

The quote tags get broken ... for some reason, even when quoting one post, when I click the "quote" button, the cursor automatically starts inbetween the [/qu^ote]   <---- where the arrow is.  So, as you see, that's causing each quote in multi quote to get broken off like that.

I mean, the very last line in the box I put into code should have explained ...

[/quote]ote]ote]



I can duplicate that error plus this mod uses the same Insert Quote function used by SMF so in case that you have an error loading the quotes it's a bug with your SMF

Hi, first at all thanks for this great script. Weve been waiting a long time for this. I run a big smf 1.11 forum with 500k posts. I can duplicate the error and confirm the bug. I think the majority of smf 1.1x users will have this problem. When quoting multiple posts the ouput looks like this:

It would be kindly appreciated if the reason can be located and fixed.

*puzzled*

I have 1.1.11 and ours works beautifully.  Am I misunderstanding hcfwesker about "clicking the quote" button?  It was my understanding that the "Add Multi Quote" link is to be used instead of the "Quote" link, not in conjunction with it.  I have nested quotes turned off and when my users want to quote more than one comment, they use only the "Add Multi Quote" link and don't touch the "Quote" link, at all.  Our quotes look like this:



Perhaps we're doing it incorrectly?  *grin*  In any event, we leave the "Quote" link alone, unless we only want to quote one post, and use Multi-Quote for the rest. 


EDIT:  As far as the Quote tag being broken, we're not having that issue, so I'm curious to know why some 1.1.x versions do and some don't.   :-\

I tested it with a clean new installation of smf 1.11 and this is what I get when deactivating nested quotes and quote from 4 different posts. Note: I used only the multi quote link.

With default, Michelangelo, or a custom theme?

(I'm only curious, because we use default and I'm wondering why one 1.1.11 forum would have this error and another one wouldn't.)

Yes, we use the default template. There were no mods, no settings, just the standard installation.

i have the mod working perfect in rc3 not saying you should upgrade just maybe consider it as an option

gbsothere

@ Michelangelo

Your forum default language is utf-8 (rather than just English)?

If so, did you make sure that your Modifications.english-utf8.php file has this mod's manual parsing?  (Just pulling at straws.)   :)

It uses modifications.english.php so it should be fine should work fine. Sadly multi quote does not work :(

michelangelo

Ok, I have good news and bad news.

The good news is Multi Quote works with Firefox on a fresh install. The bad news it's buggy in Opera and I'm using Opera primarily. Thanks for your work, maybe you can get it to work in Opera some day.

This mod randomly stopped working. I've trying to uninstall and reinstall but I get errors on the uninstall.

Will I be ok to go ahead with the uninstall and then reinstall the mod?
