Hi,

Thank you for having corrected !

I am French, and for a multilingual uses, in quickreply_editor_message_before.html file.

You have to search <option value="#" selected="selected">Custom BBCodes</option>.

And replace with <option value="#" selected="selected">{L_CUSTOM_BBCODES}</option>.

Hi,

for compatibility with QuickReply Reloaded extension, see this topic: phpBB • Posting Buttons extension & QuickReply Reloaded extension - Posting Buttons.

[Sniper_E]

I have quick reply installed and all is working together good now. Thanks!

[Sniper_E]

I had to work at it to get other button extensions in this posting buttons extension. Worked that out.

Now I'm working on tables extension and I could not get everything in the right place again.
I added this top EVENT needed to get this extension to be compatible with other extensions.

event/posting_editor_buttons_before.html

You really need this events in your template dm... think about it.

[Sniper_E]

Let me explain what I'm fighting here.
Your posting buttons extension uses the event template posting_editor_buttons_before.html

My tables extension uses the same event template but yours loads first... I know you have ran across this complaint before.
By me even. It was putting my table guide under the bbcodes, not above it where I needed it to be.

It looked like this:


So in order for me or any other ext dev to place something above the bbcodes you need an EVENT it the top of your template.

<!-- EVENT posting_editor_posting_buttons_before -->

I placed that EVENT in the top of your template and was able to use a posting_editor_posting_buttons_before.html in my events.

Now It looks like this:

See, with that EVENT in your template we can place something above the bbcode buttons. The way you have it now I could not.

/*tap*\/*tap*\/*tap*\ is this thing on?

Thank you dm for the update... the <!-- EVENT posting_editor_posting_buttons_before --> worked out perfect!
Now we can add our text above the bbcode buttons if we use this ext. And I do, it's my choice of buttons.

But your ext here uses special button images not the standard buttons from prosilver.
I still had to edit your updated template to get my special button image in this ext.

<!-- EVENT posting_editor_posting_buttons_custom_tags_before --> was also needed for this to work.

So you changed <!-- EVENT posting_editor_buttons_custom_tags_before -->
to
<!-- EVENT posting_editor_posting_buttons_custom_tags_before -->
?

[Sniper_E]

Yes I did.
<!-- EVENT posting_editor_buttons_custom_tags_before --> pulls in the default prosilver button.
<!-- EVENT posting_editor_posting_buttons_custom_tags_before --> will pull in a custom button image for your ext.

You need your own <!-- ..._custom_tags_before --> event for special buttons like you have in this ext.
Not to compare but ABBC3 has his own <!-- ..._custom_tags_before --> and my ext button is setup for that also.

You don't need <!-- EVENT posting_editor_buttons_custom_tags_before --> at all in your ext. In my opinion.
Reference my Template as stated before: Posting Buttons

[Sniper_E]

If you will dm... look these files over good when you get time.

I have posting buttons setup in the acp extensions for my tables ext now.

postingbuttons_event.zip

These events in your templates work perfect for us with a bbcode extension to add in your posting butons.

Check your acp buttons out... and my tables button added to your buttons.
