I am using XOOPS 2.0.7.3, and I'd like to get the quote functionality in forumex.

How do I get the quote feature to work?

Thanks
eric

qoute is a function in the default XOOPS editor.

ForumEx is a version of forum based on phpBB and XOOPS Forum.

The problem with quote is that the "quote" button does not exist. So, if I want to respond to a post and quote some of the original, I can't easily quote since I do not have that button.

Ok. I was able to get into the database and see that the directory being used is newbbex, which means that yes, I am using the newbbex forum. (When I get the information for the module though, it shows "Hervé Thouzard Based on XOOPS forum made by Kazumi Ono". So, I don't know who is Samuel.

It also shows version 1. And, my DB tables are xoops_bbex_{name}.

The logo/icon in the modules admin section is showing "forumEx".

Should the "quote" feature be turned on be default? Or, is it a function of the theme?

Thanks

ok youre right. this module created by hervet
but i use it for 2 month and it shows the "qoute" button.
so i think you do somthing wrong on this module.
do you update templates?
is this a fresh install or upgrade?
btw why you use this old module? why not use newbb2 or any other phpbb port modules

I honestly don't know. I was not the person to update/install the module. Fortunately, there are only two people who have that type of access. Unforuntately, I would be the only to remember such a detail. :)

The site was installed in October. AFAIK, the only modules added have been custom created ones.

Where would I get other forum modules? I don't see any in the "Module Repository"? Where would I find other Forum mods?

Thanks

ok
i nearlly understand your problem.
for update templates go to your admin --> templates and remove newbb custom templates and regenerate that.
if you want upgrade your forum to newbb 2 first you must change the "bbex" to "bb" and "newbbex" to "newbb" in tables.
i do it manually.
then you can upgrade it easily.
and for phpbb forum port to XOOPS you can find it here:
