I was creating a bunch of pre-canned responses earlier and I couldn't remember which ones I had already made.

I thought, wouldn't it be helpful if I could see the responses I had already created on the same page where I create a new one?

replace all of the code in include/staff/reply.inc.php with this code...

<?php

if(!defined('OSTSCPINC') or !$thisuser->canManageKb()) die('Access Denied');

$info=($errors && $_POST)?Format:($_POST):($answer);

if($answer && $_REQUEST!='add'){

$title='Edit Premade Reply';

$action='update';

}else {

$title='Add New Premade Reply';

$action='add';

$info=1;

}?>

And you have this result...

blank

Now, in scp/kb.php, find this line...

$inc=$page?$page:'premade.inc.php';

and replace it with this line

$inc=$page?$page:'reply.inc.php';

Now when you add new response, it will just add to list at bottom, instead of returning to list-only (premade.inc.php) page.

woot.

Lets add in a dropdown menu that will allow you to choose a base var (ex: %email) and insert it into the text field at the caret (cursor).

At the very top of /include/staff/reply.inc.php before the very first <?php, add in this code...

function addtext() {

var newtext = group.Base.options.value;

document.group.answer.value += newtext;

}

Next, find this code...

<textarea name="answer" id="answer" cols="90" rows="9" wrap="soft" style="width%"><?=$info?></textarea>

Directly below,add this code...

padding: 0.2em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;

border solid #369;

font-size%;

text-align;

font-weight;

background-color: #c3d9ff;

width: 78%;">

Ticket's base variables are supported.

Choose A Base Var

Ticket ID(internal ID)

Ticket number(external ID)

Email address

Full name

Subject

Help topic (web only)

Phone number | ext

Status

Priority

Department

Assigned staff (if any)

Date created

Due date

Date closed

Message (incoming)

Response (outgoing)

Internal note

Staff's name (alert/notices)

Assigned staff

Staff assigning the ticket

ICI Support Base URL

Don't forget the and tags at the end of the file.

Now we have a nice drop down that appends our base vars to the textbox.

blank

It's just the two pages slammed together, trimmed, styled, and Dr. Frankenstein'd a bit, but its a huge help for me and I hope it helps you.
