Using Quote and Multiquote on replies

Featured Replies

Could someone tell me how to use the Multiquot and Quote options if there is a long post and I only want to quote and reply to certain parts of it?

The feature is in practice unavailable if you use reply "normally", you need to switch into BBcode, i.e. press the button that looks totally NOT understandable, similar to a paper clip (first on the left on the toolbar when replying) that button toggles bbcode on and off.

If you click on it, the above Quote of your post will look similar to this:

[quòte name=Sophy" post="1118787" timestamp="1456285606]

Could someone tell me how to use the Multiquot and Quote options if there is a long post and I only want to quote and reply to certain parts of it?

[/quòte]

 

so you can copy and paste the tag before and after the parts, getting something *like*:

 

[quòte name=Sophy" post="1118787" timestamp="1456285606]

Could someone tell me how to use

[/quòte]

 Yes ;yes;.

[quòte name=Sophy" post="1118787" timestamp="1456285606]

the Multiquot and Quote options if there is a long post 

[/quòte]

 It is easy, once you know how to do it.

 

[quòte name=Sophy" post="1118787" timestamp="1456285606]

and I only want to quote and reply to certain parts of it?

[/quòte]

Sure, that is the correct approach. ;thumbup

 

Which will result in:

  Yes :yes:.

Thank you for showing me this.

Please notice that if you use:

[quòte name=Sophy" post="1118787" timestamp="1456285606]

Could someone tell me how to use

[/quòte]

you'll get:

But when you use:

[quòte name=Sophy]

Could someone tell me how to use

[/quòte]

you'll get:

Whereas just using:

[quòte]

Could someone tell me how to use

[/quòte]

gives you:

I do sincerely hope this addition helps, but please do feel free to ask if all I did insrtead was confuse.

Hey, someone seemingly liked the idea of using the accented o (ò) to trick the board parser ;).

I would add that this:

[quòte name=Sophy" timestamp="1456285606]

Could someone tell me how to use

[/quòte]

will result in

the one with the "post=" will add an (again not understandable) couple of clouds on the right of the quote that when clicked upon will bring up the original post (this is very handy when a quoted post is on a previous page or on another thread.
