Question on quoting someone. Should you just click on quote and then reply? I know on most forums thats what I have done in the past and worked.

To do this, I clicked the quote button on each of our posts, then the insert quote button in the reply window and picked both quotes

great tutorial . just to clarify, the "Insert quotes" tab PCustoms speaks of is at the bottom of the window, (beside attach files) not the quote tab at the top of the window. it only appears when you have selected messages to quote

Yes but I am trying to multi quote like let's say somebody posted something about deal at Lowe's, and someone replied to it, and I want to quote them both.
I have been clicking on quote and then reply on the second post but only my second post is showing up as quoted. Add to multi quote comes up, but my multi quote or quotes is not included in my post?

Just use Multi Quote and then hit the "insert quotes" button. it will insert all that have selected.

Oh I see it now.
Thank you a million of them came up I guess from past times and I had the option to delete them or keep them. Got it, thank you.

What's up with the reply window?

The font seems smaller and the quoted post is no longer bold formatting

Also I can't seem to attach pics or use any of the advanced formatting¡

I don't see any thing different
Yeah my bad, after I struggled for a bit I realized what to search


No clue how I clicked to screw it up in the first place
