"Quote message in reply?" in "Post Quick Reply"
 

I'm rather newbie in mastering all the features and functions in posting a response. My quick question is:

The checkbox of "Quote message in reply?" in "Options" Boxis always disabled when i try to submit a "Post Quick Reply". how could it be enabled??

In the toolbar of "message", i could see an "Wrap [QUOTE] tags around selected text" icon and i've tried it successfully by manually "copy & paste", the text i like to quote from previous members' text, into the message box.

But i have seen other members' quotes start with "Originally Posted by User Name" followed by a "view post" icon and the quote message is in italic.

So is it any shortcut for me to include the quotes of others just like others could or I have to do some sort of customization to enable the full "Quote" feature??

Please advise. Many thanks.

To check the "quote message in reply" in quicky reply box, you have to multi-quote another user's post, which can be found next to the "quote" button/icon at the bottom of every post.

If you want to quote someone, just click the "quote" button/icon at the bottom of that particular post. :)

EDIT: I got it wrong apparently... I can't click "quote message in reply" even though I multi-quoted your post... : /, well I guess you shouldn't use quick reply when you wanna quote... I don't do that, haha

thank you waterballon, i got your idea and this reply is a test, working?? or not?? let's see

like this?





if so you just click the + symbol of a persons post
then you can do that with as many people you want to quote
and the last person you want to quote you just click reply/quote
and to reply to the quotes you just type what you want after
on that persons post

^ You explained it really well!

And I guess it worked. :P
