Quote in Quick Reply

Post by Weskey »

I was testing some elements of UX, and I think a point that could improve would be the quote button.

I think that when the user clicked the "Quote" button, instead of loading the page "Reply Topic", the text could be "copied" to the area of "Quick Reply".
So the user could respond more quickly and would also be one less page to load.

If you want to click another "Quote" button on the same page, the text of this post would be copied down from the previous quote. With that, we could have a faster and more efficient MultiQuote.

The XenForo implements that way, and I think it would be something interesting to be implemented.
