1. In showthread.php find this bit of code:
// ########################################
##########
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['user
id']) {
show_nopermission();
}
if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}
// ########################################
##########
And replace it with the following:
// ########################################
##########
if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['user
id']) {
show_nopermission();
}
if (($bbuserinfo['userid']!=$thread['postus
erid']) and (!$getperms['canviewothers'] or !$getperms['canreplyothers'])) {
$replybox='';
} elseif (!$getperms['canview'] or (!$getperms['canreplyown'] and $bbuserinfo['userid']==$thread['postuser
id'])) {
$replybox='';
} elseif (!$thread['open'] and !ismoderator($thread['forumid'],'canopen
close')) {
$replybox='';
} else {
$textareacols = gettextareawidth();
eval("\$replybox = \"".gettemplate('showthread_replybox')."\";");
}
if ((!isset($pagenumber) or $pagenumber==0) and $pagenumber!="lastpage") {
$pagenumber=1;
}
// ########################################
##########
2. Create a new template, with the name "showthread_replybox":
// ########################################
##########
<script language="javascript">
<!--
var postmaxchars = $postmaxchars;
function validate(theform) {
if (theform.message.value=="") {
alert("Please complete the message field.");
return false; }
if (postmaxchars != 0) {
if (theform.message.value.length > $postmaxchars) {
alert("Your message is too long.\n\nReduce your message to $postmaxchars characters.\nIt is currently "+theform.message.value.length+" characters long.");
return false; }
else { return true; }
} else { return true; }
}
function checklength(theform) {
if (postmaxchars != 0) { message = "\nThe maximum permitted length is $postmaxchars characters."; }
else { message = ""; }
alert("Your message is "+theform.message.value.length+" characters long."+message);
}
//-->
</script>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="newreply.php" name="vbform" method="post" onSubmit="return validate(this)">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">

</table>
</form>
// ########################################

3. In the "showthread" template add $replybox right after the following:
// ########################################
##########
<!-- first unread and next/prev -->
<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="95%" align="center">
<tr>
<td><smallfont>$pagenav </smallfont></td>
<td align="right"><smallfont>

<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&goto=nextnewest">Next Thread</a>

</tr>
</table>
<!-- first unread and next/prev -->
// ########################################
