XF 2.2 Remove "reply, quoting this message" button

[Larry Barasch]

We have V2.2.8 Patch 1.
Please help with specific instructions on how to remove the "reply, quoting this message" button option from any and all forum posts.

This has been discussed a couple of times. Have a look at the mod section.
There are a couple of nice mods to have that removed.

I did but they were for older versions, and in my templates, there are more choices with similar but different names than what I found.

 

[Black Tiger]

Older versions?? Did you look in the correct section?

This addon will allow admins to hide the quote/reply links in the first and/or last post of a thread. There is two options to control the removal. Quote/reply example: Options: Make a small donation if you love this addon

And I saw these are both add-ons. Isn't there a simple delete part of a template thing I can do?

 

[Larry Barasch]

I uploaded the first one, and it works but it removes BOTH "quote" and "reply' buttons. I just want to kill the "reply" button.

And if I can't disable it in a template, hiding it would work too.

This should be able to be hidden with a simple line of code in your extra.less template. Somebody like @Russ probably knows offhand what it is.

My extra.less template is empty. I guess that's how it's supposed to be.

 

[Ozzy47]

Add this to the extra.less

/* HIDE REPLY BUTTON */
.block--messages .message-cell--main .actionBar {
    .actionBar-action--reply {  display: none;   }
}

 

[Larry Barasch]

That did it!!!!
Thanks a million. I can now get some rest. Loooong day......
Truly thank you.
Now I don't have to keep telling our members to stop using that button and cluttering up posts with quotes; and I can stop deleting all the extra crap.
You did a truly great thing for me.

 

[Ozzy47]

Not a problem, glad to help.

Correct. Glad we could help.
