    Sounds like a very silly bug but it has driven me crazy. I just cannot find where to change the html. There is no quip chunks on my Modx or anything. I have looked on the quip files on the backend, and only found Js files and PHP which I've knowledge of, but am not a developer.

    Even a simple thing as the order of the sending button and preview (right now it is "post" then "preview" but it needs to be "preview" and then "post") needs to be changed, but I just don't know where to.

    I use Modx revolution 2.2.8,

    This is the link:

    Help please!

      I think Quip's Tpl "chunks" are all files. Look at this one:

      core\components\quip\elements\chunks\quipaddcomment.chunk.tpl



      Near the end, try changing this

      <button type="submit" name="[[+preview_action]]" value="1">[[%quip.preview]]</button>
    [[+can_post:is=`1`:then=`<button type="submit" name="[[+post_action]]" value="1">[[%quip.post]]</button>`]]


      to this

      [[+can_post:is=`1`:then=`<button type="submit" name="[[+post_action]]" value="1">[[%quip.post]]</button>`]]
<button type="submit" name="[[+preview_action]]" value="1">[[%quip.preview]]</button>

        Thank you for your answer,

        Interesting enough, there is no folder in there called chunks. Only Js and Css (on image).

        I will re-install quip and see if maybe it turns up.
        Thankfully, my client said he can live with double colon. But I'm just very curious to know where are those files. They must be there somewhere!

          You're looking in the wrong directory. The chunks are under the core folder (core/components/quip)?

          The CSS and JS files are under the assets/components/quip folder.

          For the double colon, just take the : out of this line section:

          <div class="quip-fld">
        <label for="quip-comment-name-[[+idprefix]]">[[%quip.name? &namespace=`quip` &topic=`default`]]:<span class="quip-error">[[+error.name]]</span></label>
        <input type="text" name="name" id="quip-comment-name-[[+idprefix]]" value="[[+name]]" />
        <br />
    </div>
