ok - think I have this new format figured....

I click on the "quote+" changing it to "quote-" for one nor more posts I want to quote

THEN I hit "reply" in the last (or only) post I want quoted

This bumps you down to the "quick reply" box at the bottom of the page - which WILL be empty

click on "Go Advanced" and you will go to the advanced edit box and the quoted posts will be displayed


Whew!

testing #5

going to advanced:

The following appears below the window:

You have selected 5 post(s) that are not part of this thread. Quote these posts as well, or deselect these posts.

Selecting [quote these posts as well]

Then these quotes appear:

He desribes a lot of the symptoms of what a lot of posters here call convertitis (Although I prefer i prefer Convertosis, because an -itis is an inflammation)

my comments .... how did this get in here?

There has been some mention of canons of the Church regarding iconography. Could someone post those, or at least a link?

The Reader Peter

comments.....




Okay, these were quoted in another forum as test that didn't work.

Will these be quoted again in another post I make, or will they be unquoted in the next post?

The same quotes appear ... so I guess I have to go to TAW and unselect all those quotes.

The quote I selected here at CF Support are not displayed.

Posts #43 and 44 were both selected and the quote box changed colors.

However, only the LAST post selected appears as before.

I selected [reply] as Erwin suggested and then went down to the reply box to type in my message.




Strange, I don't show a [post reply] button as Erwin displayed.

My button only reads [reply] in the post itself or [post quick reply] down at the bottom of the page.

Remember that I have linux/mozilla.

Okay, now to see if the quotes from CF Support appear now that I have deselected all the previously selected quotes.


Here goes.

Nope.

This is a pain. I prefer the other way.

testing again - the last time it didn't work at all.


Ok - it works and I think what I and others have been having trouble with - it is the
button!! I had NO idea where this was, didn't remember ever seeing it and have never used it!!

IF you are having trouble finding it too - listen up

At the bottom of every thread page there is the "quick reply" box - ok no surprise - LOL BUT.....

JUST above that "quick reply" box and to the far left is the
button - THIS is the button you click after selecting one or several posts to quote!!

Hurray! It immediately takes you to an advanced edit box where the quoted posts are for your convenience!!

Try it it REALLY DOES work

was it figured out why numbers appear after the names of the persons quoted?

I'm not seeing the multi-quote buttons today.Where'd they go?
I also could not get the quote button to work on my last post.

I love the feature! But I liked it better when there was the regular quote button with the little multi-quote one next to it...especially when you just want to quote one post.


ahh ok, glad I lood here before going to the report bug section

It's not a bug, it's a feature



THANKS HENAYNEI
for your post below.
This has been a tremendous help.
I didn't see that new button.
Guess I am used to seeing all the buttons on the right side, not the left.
he he.



NOW I see the light.

A new button for us to play with.

Thanks, Henaynei
