A suggestion about the quote feature.

Hey admin, was just wondering if it was possible, when you quote someone, for it to say who you were quoting and perhaps the time and date of their post. It really helps when you quote something in a long thread that is a few pages back.

So if you could have (Quote by MrConsistency), maybe in smaller text or something just to give the quote some context.

Just a suggestion.

I reckon there are a few out there that could use this advice including me.

A bad day on the golf course is better than no golf at all. :(

OK sorry bout that, power went to my head a little. Hopefully someone will chime in with a website but I cant remember what format it is in so I can’t google it.

All I noes is:

_ On both sides makes it into Italics

An asterisk (SHIFT + 8) On both sides makes it bold

^ On both sides makes it go small and sit high (superscript?)

- On both sides strikes it out

Quoting is done just by clicking the ‘Quote’ button under the posters name. If you only want a part of the post just delete what you dont want, just make sure you leave everything inside these ‘<’ and ‘>’ around both blockquotes.

I didnt think I was a luddite…but I havent worked out how either!

If you want to add a second or third quote copy and paste the ‘blockquotes’ at the start and end of your first quote and copy the new quote in between them.

Hope this helps….I don’t think I could write manuals : )

 

how do you only quote part of a message, rather than all of it. also how do you do multiple quotes in one post

God…I made a pigs ear of that!

Thanks Franky, it did help, sort of!

The whole quoting thing could do with a major improvement. And easier text styling wouldn’t hurt either.

 

Yea, perhaps after you hit quote, you can highlight what you want to quote or something.

Looks like admin is on the course….or on the grog!

Correct…on the grog, on the course.

Yes as per another thread we are looking at big improvements with many areas of the forum. Thanks for the feedback – quoting and text input/styling will be part of some upcoming changes.
