How to add "Post an answer" button like http://pokemondb.net/pokebase below all answers?

Question

Hi developers

Came across http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/ and I really liked how the site has been modified to be user friendly. I especially liked the "post an answer" button after all answers on the question page.

Anyone has an idea how to program such a button?

Thank you

Answer 1

1. Display HTML of reference site.
2. Look for HTML code of your favorite parts.
3. Open qa-include/qa-theme-base.php
4. In this case, Find "<!-- END qa-a-list -->"
5. In this case, Add below function in qa-theme.php file of your theme folder.

function a_list($a_list)

{

  qa_html_theme_base::a_list($a_list);  // parent class process of Q2A core

  $this->output('Past HTML-code here !!');

}

Hi,

With your help, the HTML code I needed is:

<p align="center"><input name="q_doanswer" onclick="return qa_toggle_element('anew')" value="Post an answer" title="Answer this question" type="submit" class="qa-form-tall-hover qa-form-tall-hover-answer"></p>

I pasted this HTML code in qa-theme.php of theme folder inside the function you provided above. However, am getting this error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/xyz/public_html/qa-theme/Snow/qa-theme.php on line 94

And Line 94 is: <p align="center"><input name="q_doanswer" onclick="return qa_toggle_element('anew')" value="Post an answer" title="Answer this question" type="submit" class="qa-form-tall-hover qa-form-tall-hover-answer"></p>

Oh! I found the mistake and corrected the HTML code to

<p align="center"><input name="q_doanswer" onclick="return qa_toggle_element(\'anew\')" value="Post an answer" title="Answer this question" type="submit" class="qa-form-tall-hover qa-form-tall-hover-answer"></p>

The button is now showing up after all the answers, THANKS  :)

Hi,, owner of the site here. All I did was copy the button code for the regular "answer" button that's below the question, then change the classes :)
