    quotes

    This may sound silly but, how do you highlight what others post & reply under it? I can not figure it out. I am on my phone also if it matters. thanks!

    If you want to post replies to multiple posts you can select them by clicking the multi quote button . This button will change colors (red/orange) to indicate that you've selected it. Clicking post reply will then bring you to the full editor with all the posts quoted.



    If you want to quote more than one person, use the box on the bottom right of their post that has the "+ or quotation marks in it. Add as many posters as you want by clicking the "+ marks for each person you are quoting. Hit the "Quote" button LAST for the person who is your final quote.

    Once you hit the "Quote" button, you will have the quoted people's resonses in a text box where you can reply. You can also delete some of the quoted persons text leaving only the words or sentences you want to reply to.

    Just make sure you don't delete the parts containing the [ and ] symbols before and after their words.

    Hopefully that makes sense. You can always try it in this thread and try to quote your own post by hitting the "+ box and hitting the "Quote" button in my post and you should see both your post and my post in your reply area, where you can then add your reponses. Before hitting submit reply, you can always try the preview post button to see how it will look.

    It really is easy once you do it the first time.
