Subject makes no sense, cant fit what I want in a small space...

When people reply to posts, is there a way to make the reply box appear at the top of the page, above what they are replying to, instead of below?

This is becoming pretty irritating when replying to LARGE posts.

Also with things like vbullitin and phpBB, you can reply from the bottom of a thread, a 'quick reply' or you can reply with quote or 'advanced reply' which loads a reply page similar to the one in Xoops, but the reply box is at the top of the page, and the ENTIRE thread is below.

Can I do this in Xoops?

Dave

Yes, with Newbb 2 - just like on these forums.

Oh, thanks

How do I keep my existing forum contents AND my forum posters count etc?

Dave

Ok,

I have not had an answer to this post yet, I really like the look of newbb2, I have it installed on a site I am testing at the moment, for a new project.

As I said in my original post, my main site (using newbb) has some huge posts, and replying to a post means you have to scroll a long way down, so I want to move this area to the top of the page.

I was recommended to use newbb2, but I don't want to loose my forum content that I already have, is this possible?

I want everything that is in newbb2, but I need to keep all of the content that I have in my existing board, as well as my existing forums and categories, I guess it can be done, I just don't know how.

If someone can help me out here, I would be very grateful.

Thankyou

Dave

Cool got it now,

Again the right search terms can get you a long way on Xoops....

I was pretty nervous, but, the update seems to have gone well - so far!
