It's not a vbulletin feature, I wrote it this morning.

[sevenhalo]

Nice

Thanks.

[JPnyc]

Glad you like it. I'm trying to integrate it more with the LastPost feature I added a few weeks ago.

[JPnyc]

Ah, there it is. Now when you click LastPost it also shows the chars left.

[space_monkey]

Sweet

***pats joe on the back***

Good Work

[penagate]

Neat.

Static - we'll go to 3.5 eventually, JM has a lot of forums to maintain not just us

[JPnyc]

Thank you, thank you, no applause. Just send money . Yes, we have 30 forums to upgrade. Usually by the time we finish it's time to start again.

And, after every upgrade, you have to redo all of the "additional features" that you have put into each of the sites. No wonder they pay you guys the big bucks.

[JPnyc]

Big bucks? When's that kick in? (frantically reads employee handbook). Yes, that's right, every hack needs to be reapplied after each upgrade. No wonder I look 20 yrs older than I am.

[RobDog888]

Another Job well done Joe!

Ps, You forgot to capitolize the "H" in hack.

[Static]

excellent work!!!

[ComputerJy]

The charsLeft is wonderfull, but don't you think the "LastPost" thing is useless?

[sevenhalo]

That's about the biggest backhanded compliment I've seen all day.

[JPnyc]

He won't think lastPost is useless when he types a 200 word post and the submit fails LOL

[visualAd]

Can we have an auto-answer button too?

edit*

Just tested and it seems that the maxpostlength does nothing? Im 254 over now.

[ComputerJy]

I didn't mean to be mean, I appreciate you worked hard to improve the forums.
I think it's useless to me, cause I always copy before submitting

[JPnyc]

How do you figure you're 254 over? I show 7741 chars left, after copying and pasting your post into the text editor. The limit is 10000, and that post wasn't even 3000.

I didn't take it as mean, computerjy, but lots of folks don't take the time to copy their posts, so for them it's important. Unfortunately the cookie limit will be reached (4k) long before the post limit is, so for the LONGEST posts, it's still best to copy it.

Well the picture is what I am going off of, what do you see??

[JPnyc]

Well if you truly exceeded the limit, the post wouldn't have submitted, so you cannot have. That limit is serverside and has nothing to do with the feature I added. This feature only clues you in as to when you've exceeded it.

I don't know what happened with your post there but there is nothing approaching 10,000 chars in that post, which is the limit. I copied and pasted your entire post as I said, and there were 7741 chars left.

[JPnyc]

Oh I see what happened. The regular reply is taking the max PM chars value which is 2000. I'll have to fix that. Thanks for the head's up.

NP

[JPnyc]

Yeah the problem is, there's only one long reply editor and it's used for post and PMs. I'm having a hard time finding a template that only shows up on the PM pages, so I can reset the variable value in it, for the PM maximum length, which isn't the same as max post length.

[JPnyc]

Ok, I got it.

[bushmobile]

it still thinks you only have 2000 characters when you go back and edit a previous post.

[ComputerJy]

No, it says 10,000

[bushmobile]

well then that's been changed in the last 50 mins then - wished I'd taken a screenshot now...

[JPnyc]

I changed it, I was just still too groggy to post about it at the time Thanks for the head's up

How about adding the vbcode tag button to the quick reply?

Studies show that it increases the risk of certain invasive cancers.

[JPnyc]

No problem. I figure it you're willing to take the health risk, then who am I to refuse? Of course we'll need you to sign a release................

[sevenhalo]

Wow, that was a quick change. I'm liking it!

[Static]
