How to turn off Quick Reply in PMs?

[oldford]

Is there a way to turn off the Quick Reply feature in Private Messages? I think this was added in a recent version and since upgrading I'm getting a lot of members sending replies with none of their own text. They're used to hitting the button below the PM to bring up the reply window.

Thanks!

There is no option to disable it in PMs. I think you would have to edit the template and remove it.

The editing of the template is relative simple. Just go into admin cpanel -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Edit templates and search in the list Private Message Templates. Click on it, and then on pm_showpm.
After that, search for this line:

<if condition="$show['quickreply']">

and delete everything until you see this lines:

</tbody>
</table>
</if>

Be very careful though.
