How do you do this?

Postby RichardCoeurdeLion » Sat Feb 27, 2010 9:20 am

If you want to quote more than one person in a single reply, how do you do it?

Thanks Pauly, but when you click on "quote" on one of the posts you want to quote, the screen changes to the one where you type your reply. It's when you want to quote from two or more at the same time I can't sort.

There may be another way but I do it by opening ADC in another window, press the quote button on the post I want to quote, copy it, return to the other window containing my original reply and pasting the quote into it.

You can make sure you have done it right before exposing your attempts to all in sundry by clicking on 'Preview' rather than 'Submit'.

If you scroll down below the box where you type your reply, you will see all previous posts in the thread. Each one has a 'quote' button in the top right hand corner - just click on it :D - then scroll to the next one...
