Quick Thread

Similar to how the Quick Reply on thread pages works, this basically adds a Quick Thread box at the bottom of forum pages to allow users to post new threads without having to go to a new page.

I haven't checked what's changed or done any testing whatsoever, but I'll trust your suggestion.

Thanks Sama34!
Updated.

No problem. The thing is reCaptcha has always (AFAIK) been "2" so "$mybb->settings['captchaimage'] == 1" doesn't work. I just tested in 1.6.10 though.

v1.3: Mark as MyBB 1.8 compatible

eh yumi is their a way to make it like
have one page where people can go to create a thread and there they can select forum where they want to create the thread

[ZiNgA BuRgA]

You'll need another plugin for that.

actually i don't know where i saw that plugin few months ago and i when started to find it again thought its quick thread.
will find it on mybb.com
although it would be a nice plugin and create thread will work like wordpress add new post

How stupid I'm to not thinking about using the $GLOBALS version

Yes, yes, yes. It works, Yumi!

I just need to hide some custom thread fields, and put the variable manually in my Quick Thread and newthread template.

I can design my Quick Thread templates now!

It's very rare the new thread page to be touched since I have this plugin

For the non required field, I can set it to required, and put a default value to the fields, so the fields will be displayed on the Quick Thread, but users not to be "forced" to "fill" it

Thank you very much, Yumi

Hi, can you tell me how did you add manually the variables in the QuickThread template?

I tried:
{$GLOBALS['tfinput']['test']}
{$GLOBALS['mybb']->tfinput['test']}
{$GLOBALS['extra_threadfields']}
{$extra_threadfields}
{$tfinputrow['test']}

in forumdisplay_quick_thread but input for custom thread fields don't work

Thank you!

^ Be aware that it won't work for fields that aren't set to 'required'.

[nier3]

Thank you very much!

But why only custom fields required? : (((

[ZiNgA BuRgA]

That's just how it is.  The idea of Quick Thread is to only ask for stuff that's actually required - if you need the full set of options, the Post Thread page handles all that.
