HELP!! Can't quote

[Wild West Reptile]

OK, If someone can give me a step by step instruction manual....in other words, Quoting for dummies.....on how to pull a quote from another user and insert it in a reply post I would REALLLLLY appreciate it. Tokay tried, and I don't get it still. I'm sorry about being a complete computer idiot. I'm lucky I can even insert pictures! I don't care about multiquote yet, just wanna learn to quote first. I searched for a thread and only got multiquote. Still don't get it. Do you copy and paste? After you press the quote button on someone else's post, what's next? What am I doing wrong? Arrrrrrrrrgh!, Im so aggravated! Thanks for any help. :main_huh:

once you figure it out, you will kick yourself, lol.

at the bottom under this post, you will see boxes that say Quote, Multiquote, Quick Reply, and Thanks. Click on the "Quote" box and scroll down a little. You will see that the reply box will have [ quote ]everything i have typed here [ /quote ]. the only difference is that there will be no spaces between the [ ] and the words. then just type in what you want to say under that, and hit "Post Quick Reply" under the white text box

I still don't think I get it. I don't see "post quick reply" It says, "submit reply" or "preview post".

OK, what if I only want to select a certain part of your post? Like only a sentence? how is that done?

 

[fuzzylogix]

you got it! you can click on either. preview will just show you what you are about to post, and submit reply will actually post it.

once you hit quote, you can just highlight and delete the parts you don't want. like this...

Thank you so much. I think I have it now. My brains about to explode. I'll learn how to multiquote tomorrow. It's getting late, but at least it's Friday! Take care.
