cybercoma Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Oh FFS. If you want to break up a quote, highlight a passage in the person's posts and a "Quote This" box will actually show up. That drops the quote into the reply box at the bottom. Type up your reply. Then you can highlight and quote the next part the same way. That's the easiest way to break up quotes and you don't have to resort to writing HTML code or being talked down to because you don't write HTML.

Forum Admin Greg Posted November 10, 2016 Forum Admin Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 Cybercoma has posted the solution. Simply select the text you wanted quoted, put the cursor over the highlighted text and you'll be given the option to "Quote this". Select that link (the text will be quoted in the reply box); you can then return to the thread and continue to do that with all the text you want quoted.

Perhaps, I will look into it. However, the above post describing how to quote multiple sections of text seems much much easier than using BB code. I'm closing this thread as it has been properly answered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
