Please help, I'm having some grammatical trouble!

[sweetpotatoqueen50]

This post may be a little unorthodox but some of you have been on here a long time and I thought I'd just ask.

I'm having one heck of a time using the "quote" feature on CF. Does anyone have any pointers? I've looked at all the FAQs and the help menus.

Also how do you get those cut little quotes at the bottom of your posts or do you have to earn them by so many blessings,reputation, etc.?

Any advice is helpful.

Welcome to Christian Forums ...

There is a link to the FAQ on the navigation bar which includes the rules.
You may be wondering about some of these things:
Blessings ... Reputation ... Armor of God ... CF Pet ... How to Donate

To see full list of forums click on "Christian Forums" in upper left hand corner.

To get the quote box just use the QUOTE button in the right bottom corner of post you want to quote.

If you want the cute little quotes at the bottom of your post, go into your profile to the "edit signature" option.

As for "Quotes" in responses, can you be a little more specific? If you just use the "quote" button instead of "reply" it'll quote the post in your reply.

You can always go to the Testing 1,2,3... forum and try stuff out to see if it works without having to worry about looking silly.

You can also "preview post" rather than submit to make sure that you got it formatted right.

One thing you can do is use the quote button on the bottom right side of any post, and it will set up the "quote" tags for you.

Here's the basic format for how the quote tags work. I put some extra spaces in them so that the you could see the text. To use them, you would need to get rid of the space between the "[" and the word "quote"

[ quote] put stuff to quote in here [/quote]

put stuff to quote in here

[ quote=gsmithcat] put stuff to quote in here [/quote]

put stuff to quote in here
