Re: Quote Box
If you just require a segment of a quote, go to post reply highlight what you want from the post(shown at the bottom) then press the quote buttonphatplants wrote:That simple!
Of course, if you highlight a bit that you have quoted from some one else, it will appear as if you have been quoted!phatplants wrote:The quote is usually shown in a box with the poster's name at the top

Never knew that; handy, thanks.flounder wrote: If you just require a segment of a quote, go to post reply highlight what you want from the post(shown at the bottom) then press the quote button
Another forum I read (which uses Xenoforum, which is a relatively recent piece of software) allows you to just highlight a piece in the original thread and then a "Quote this" button pops up alongside. You can do that repeatedly as you read the thread and then they are all separately quoted in your reply But this is very nearly as good, thanks.
