This thread will contain all the useful screenshots regarding this package.

First, « Quote Post in pm/email to Poster« 

When a user have the permissions to send PM, or send Email, and the poster have the same permissions, a new link appear in the Postbit Popup, like here:

as you can see, the Private Message part is now seperate in the « Contact X » part, this is to help us find the right function. The links only appear when the reader have permission to use them.

Then, as decided in the AdminCP >> vBulletin Options >> Private Messaging Revisited:

The result comes that way: Here is a Quoted Post in a PM, with the Thread Title added in the message title:

And here is a Quoted Post in a Email, without the Thread title, with out custom title that you can edit:

…. That’s it for this feature.

Why it makes it different from the other versions found elsewhere?

• This one use the existing functions in vBulletin instead of creating new ones, so a smaller footprint.
• This one verify the permissions of access to the thread/post quoted only once, from the original vBulletin process, making it a smaller code of 6 lines instead of 50.
• This one mimic the already existing « quote post », instead of creating new permissions and new bloated needs.
• This one can send the quote to a Email, so you can contact the poster outside the site. — good for moderators!

Again this is a minimal feature, but use the great possibilities of the included functions inside vBulletin. And as usual, no template edit, no code edit…
