Shoutbox

Indeed I also had it difficult to decrypt that one

Well you can give a person a link to a thread but not to a specific post in a thread (well you can but you cant get that link from the forums) I always thought we needed a button next to the "edit" and "find" buttons in that little bar after every post that said "url" and it would copy the link to the post? I think that would be useful

blah, u just have to click on the date in the post (below ur avatar) and u will get the url to the post
is not that hard

ohhhhhhhhhh so THATS how u get it ty chrono (i like Mippo's idea though, about copying the posts link to clipbaord auto)

And i like KeyStorm's idea btw but it has to be easy to do

Believe me, it is

inserting sumthin like

code:

---

    $patterns[] = "#\[thread=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/thread\]#si";
    $replacements[] = '<a href="http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=\1\2" target="_blank">\1</a>';
    $patterns[] = "#\[post=(.*?)\]";
    $replacements[] = '&pid=\1#\1';

---

into functions.php should work for like [thread=num][post=num][/thread] returning http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=(n...pid=(num)#pid(num)

Hum... too much writing And post numbers are unique, so referencing to a post automatically references to a thread.

blah, the user can paste it and delete all the http://msgplus.mybboard.... etc and leave only the number.

with javascript you can't copy texts to clipboard, i think

But that doesn't get the thread subject...

I already started coding the feature anyway. I figure the best way to find out whether it will work or not is to try it.

, Wow, I had a good idea (after the e-mail notifications idea I felt like my electronic brain was a little cold )
I'm happy it's going to be added.
