For some reason I can't review this mod so just letting you know here it works perfectly!

I modified the code a little for me so that it not replaces the button, but simply adds it. This way anyone can choose which options fits best for their needs.

How? I would like that option as well.

Simples - just comment out the following line in ./Sources/Subs-RQEwM.php

Code Select Expand

    unset($output['quickbuttons']['quick_edit']);
Might update the mod to include a setting that gives the option to just move the 'Modify' button (ie, also keep the 'Quick Edit' button) ...

[Steve]

Thanks GL.

Done!

Thanks GL. Is there supposed to be any settings somewhere?

In Modification Settings (hopefully) ...

Just updated the mod package file to redirect to the Modifications Settings page after mod is installed.

[Steve]

I had totally missed the setting the first time I looked. Sorry about that.

Thanks for the update.

There seems to be a glitch somewhere ... when modifying a post and saving it, I get a message at the top of the page that says 'Loading' and the page is never refreshed. But if I manually refresh the page, the post shows with any changes I've made.

That seems like a JS issue and this mod doesn't do any JS stuff - wondering if it's because of this issue which you also reported.

[Steve]

Possible I guess. I know nothing about coding so you could very well be right.
