How to quote?

[Scilla]

It's probably just me being blind, but I can't find info anywhere on how to quote another user's post.
Looked through the faq and did a search on "quote", didn't help
Hoping someone can help

See the 'dit-dits' in the top RH corner next to the exclamation mark symbol.... Run your mouse over it and it will say 'reply with quote', and clickum.

Hi Scilla,

If you only want to quote a few lines of someone's post you can copy and paste those words and add/start with

Then you mark these words and click on "Quote" (above the smilies) and you get this

As Maggie Nell has mentioned, there. is a little "double quote" icon in the upper right hand corner of the post that you want to quote. It looks something like this:

"

When you are viewing that person's post and click on that icon you will be put into edit mode with that person's complete post copied into your reply.

If you don't want the whole message displayed in your reply, you can go into the copied message and delete parts of it, but you must never delete the left or right brackets that enclose the copied post. The copied post must always start with a bracketed tag that looks something like
[ quote="username" ] and it must always end with the bracketed tag [ /quote ]
If you delete any of the brackets or the bracketed tags your quote will not display correctly.
