<hr>
<div class="ipsBox" id="fast_reply_wrapper">
    <div class="ipsBox_container ipsPad">
        <h1 class="ipsType_subtitle">{$this->lang->words['topic_add_reply']}</h1>
        <if test="isLockedFR:|:$topic['state'] == 'closed'"><span class="error">{$this->lang->words['locked_reply_fr']}</span>
</if>
        
        <if test="isMember:|:$this->memberData['member_id']">
            <a href="%7Bparse%20url=" showuser="{$this-">memberData['member_id']}" seotitle="{$this->memberData['members_seo_name']}" template="showuser" base="public"}" title='{$this->lang->words['your_profile']}' class='ipsUserPhotoLink left'><img src="%7B$this-%3EmemberData[" pp_small_photo']}'="" alt="{parse expression=" sprintf($this-="">lang->words['users_photo'],$this->memberData['members_display_name'])"}" class='ipsUserPhoto ipsUserPhoto_medium' /></a>
        <else>
            <div class="left">{IPSMember::buildNoPhoto(0, 'small' )}</div>
        </else></if>
        <div class="ipsBox_withphoto clearfix">
            <form action="{parse url=" "="" base="public" }"="" method="post" id="ips_fastReplyForm">
                <input name="app" value="forums" type="hidden">
                <input name="module" value="post" type="hidden">
                <input name="section" value="post" type="hidden">
                <input name="do" value="reply_post_do" type="hidden">
                <input name="f" value="{$forum['id']}" type="hidden">
                <input name="t" value="{$topic['tid']}" type="hidden">
                <input name="st" value="{$this->request['st']}" type="hidden">
                <input name="auth_key" value="{$this->member->form_hash}" type="hidden">
                <input name="fast_reply_used" value="1" type="hidden">
                <input name="enableemo" value="yes" type="hidden">
                <input name="enablesig" value="yes" type="hidden">
                <if test="$this->memberData['auto_track']">
                    <input name="enabletrack" value="1" type="hidden">
                </if>
                <if test="is_array($topic['_fastReplyStatusMessage']) AND count($topic['_fastReplyStatusMessage']) AND strlen($topic['_fastReplyStatusMessage'][0])">
                    <div class="message">{parse expression="implode( '
', $topic['_fastReplyStatusMessage'] )"}</div>
                </if>
                {parse editor="Post" options="array( 'type' => 'full', 'minimize' => 1, 'isTypingCallBack' => 'ipb.topic.isTypingCallBack', 'height' => 180, 'autoSaveKey' => 'reply-' . $topic[tid] )"}
                
                
                <fieldset class="right" id="fast_reply_controls">
                    <input name="submit" class="input_submit" value="{$this->lang->words[" qr_post']}'="" tabindex="0" accesskey="s" id="submit_post" type="submit">&nbsp;&nbsp;<input name="preview" class="input_submit alt" value="{$this->lang->words[" qr_more_opts']}'="" tabindex="0" id="full_compose" type="submit">            
                </fieldset>
            </form>
        </div>
        <div id="ips_HasReplies"></div>
    </div>
</div>

<else>
    <if test="loadJsManually:|:$displayData['load_editor_js']">
        {parse template="editorLoadJs" group="editors" params="$displayData['smilies']"}
    </if>
</else></if>

Comment it out by adding a <!-- to the start and a --> to the end (do not remove the code)


Part two, add 'post reply' to the end of the page.

Immediately after the code you have removed, you'll see this line:

<!-- Close topic -->

Add the following code just above that 'close topic' line but after the code you commented out:

<ul class="topic_buttons">
        <if test="closedButton:|:$displayData['reply_button']['image'] == 'locked'">
            <li class="important">
                <if test="pollOnly:|:isset($displayData['poll_data']['poll']['poll_only']) && $displayData['poll_data']['poll']['poll_only']">
                    <if test="closedButtonLink:|:$displayData['reply_button']['url']">
                        <a href="%7B$displayData[" reply_button']['url']}'="" accesskey="r">{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_poll_only_reply']}</a>
                    <else>
                        <span>{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_poll_only']}</span>
                    </else></if>
                <else>
                    <if test="closedButtonLink:|:$displayData['reply_button']['url']">
                        <a href="%7B$displayData[" reply_button']['url']}'="" accesskey="r">{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_locked_reply']}</a>
                    <else>
                        <span>{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_locked']}</span>
                    </else></if>
                </else></if>
            </li>
        <else>
            <if test="replyButton:|:$displayData['reply_button']['image']">
                <if test="replyButtonLink:|:$displayData['reply_button']['url']">
                    <li><a href="%7B$displayData[" reply_button']['url']}'="" title="{$this->lang->words[" topic_add_reply']}'="" accesskey="r">{$this->lang->words['topic_add_reply']}</a></li>
                <else>
                    <li class="disabled"><span>{$this->lang->words['top_cannot_reply']}</span></li>
                </else></if>
            </if>
        </else></if>
    </ul>

Save.
