How to make Preview button available near Submit button?

Hi,

Is it possible to make buttom Preview on every page near buttom Submit ?

Yes, there is a plugin for that. You can get it from the download page and install it.

Sorry, I forget to write that I have this plugin already :-)

Now, I'm tring to make buttom Preview on every page near buttom Submit. I have put in main_post_area.html

<input type=button value="Preview" class=inputButton onClick="prevThis();">

but buttom Preview still isn't on every page :-(

The Preview-button is in main_post_form.html
The Submit-botton is in main_post_area.html

Don't know if it is posible to modify this to get them next to eachother. When you move the Preview-button to main_post_form.html, it will be on every page. The closest you can get is to put them right above eachother.

I have put Preview buttom over Submit buttom like that:

open:

main_post_form.html

find:

<tr><td class=tbTransparent>{$loginLogout}</td></tr>

after add:

<tr><td class=tbTransparent>&nbsp;<input type=button value="{$preview}" class=inputButton onClick="prevThis();"></td></tr>

And? Does it work now like you want?

_Marco

No :-) It isn't still on the right by Submit buttom but over.

Sorry, can't help you with that. Maybe someone else has a solution for this.

i think you're forgetting the main_topics.html template .. there's the submit button there also..

Team thank you! Now everythink is like I want to :-)

omg, now I get it, this was easy. I changed my forum too :-)

Also add the button to tools_edit_post.html

Hi,
is it possible allow only preview when submitting new post? So that user can't directly submit it, but first preview and only on the preview page do a submit?

This addon just provides a "preview" button which user may click to preview his post before sending, if he wants. Not possible to display it on additional submission page (and we think it's a most "boring" solution which will bore your users a lot).

Can the preview button be used in the PM section?
