Yeah, I'm familiar with them. I think I've got the idea. I get the source code from the actual page through chrome to see how the buttons are made, then I just copy that code (for the buttons) into a global template with the prefix on it and that will make the changes to the new thread/edit post?

I'm just not really familiar with how the templates work, I don't know where to paste the code that I made because the code isn't the same as the source. Do I replace where it says "extra threadfields" (before post icons) with the new code?

Should my template look like this?

Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>{$lang->newthread_in}</title>
{$headerinclude}
<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/post.js?ver=1400"></script>
</head>
<body>
{$header}
{$preview}
{$thread_errors}
{$attacherror}
<form action="newthread.php?fid={$fid}&amp;processed=1" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="input">
<input type="hidden" name="my_post_key" value="{$mybb->post_code}" />
<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" class="theadborder">
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2">{$lang->post_new_thread}</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" class="tborder">
{$loginbox}

<td class="trow2" width="20%">{$lang->thread_subject}</td>
<td class="trow2">{$prefixselect}<input type="text" class="textbox" name="subject" size="40" maxlength="85" value="{$subject}" tabindex="1" /></td>

(Haven't changed anything yet, just want to make sure this is how it's done)

edit:

I answered my own question by following what I posted and it worked like a charm! Not so "ugly" either. Tongue You made it seem like it'd be hard when you said that. Thank you! it works now!

edit:
Scratch that, it works and all, but now the file upload section is gone. How would I add that to the html?

edit: Nvm I think I just forgot to copy the upload part to the template! Ha ha ha. Thank you for the help!
