XF 2.0 How to disable quick reply?

[developr]

Is it possible to disabled quick reply on threadview so users are forced to use the advanced editor?

 

[Nicolas FR]

You can do it by yourself with a little template modification : https://xenforo.com/community/resources/remove-quick-thread-function.6673/

 

[developr]

Sorry. I mean the "quick reply" under the posts, not the "quick new thread" .

 

[Nicolas FR]

If you disabled/remove this reply block how can you reply to the thread ?

 

[developr]

example.com/threadid/reply

There you have a full reply page which I want to use for mobile users.

 

[Nicolas FR]

Ok, so you want to remove the reply block and put a button pointing to example.com/threadid/reply instead ?

Go to thread_view template and remove this part of code around line 294

<xf:if is="$thread.canReply()">
    <xf:form action="{{ link('threads/add-reply', $thread) }}"
        ajax="true"
        draft="{{ link('threads/draft', $thread) }}"
        class="block js-quickReply"
        data-xf-init="attachment-manager quick-reply{{ $xf.visitor.isShownCaptcha() ? ' guest-captcha' : '' }}"
        data-message-container=".js-replyNewMessageContainer"
        data-preview-url="{{ link('threads/reply-preview', $thread, {'quick_reply': 1}) }}">

        <xf:js src="xf/message.js" min="1" />
        <xf:set var="$lastPost" value="{$posts|last}" />

        <div class="block-container">
            <div class="block-body">
                <xf:macro template="quick_reply_macros" name="body"
                    arg-message="{$thread.draft_reply.message}"
                    arg-attachmentData="{$attachmentData}"
                    arg-forceHash="{$thread.draft_reply.attachment_hash}"
                    arg-messageSelector=".js-post"
                    arg-multiQuoteHref="{{ link('threads/multi-quote', $thread) }}"
                    arg-multiQuoteStorageKey="multiQuoteThread"
                    arg-lastDate="{$lastPost.post_date}"
                    arg-lastKnownDate="{$thread.last_post_date}" />
            </div>
        </div>
    </xf:form>
</xf:if>

And put the code of your button reply at the same place.
Note that is a template modification you will have to re-do when upgrading XenForo.

But then quickreply is disabled for any device. I would like to disable it only for mobile users so I need to edit less.

I had hoped there is a option in the backend to change it.

Oh ok, sorry for the misunderstood...
