Hi!

I would like bbpress to add post author’s username, when I click to “Reply” link. What should I do for that?

[Pascal Casier]

Hi,

You mean at the bottom of the reply, so as a last line of the text ?
Or to the left of the replies under the picture (like here)

Pascal.

I mean when I click on “Reply” link under your post, it should instantly paste [b]casiepa[b], into reply field, so I can mention your name in the text.

[Pascal Casier]

To my knowledge, I suppose you should copy form-reply.php to your child theme and modify it accordingly. I’m not aware of filters that could help you, but I don’t know all of them…

Can somebody help me?

Closest thing I can think of is to use a quote plugin like this, which when a user is quoted will insert an @user for each user quoted.

I already use quote plugin. But I need different functionality:
I need a button, which will insert other user’s username to reply field.
Is it possible?

[Robkk]

It is definitely possible. I kind of meant that you could edit and customize the plugin to do what you want, or hire a developer to create this custom functionality for you.
