You could do it a simpler way, if you click on the icon at the top of the box (4th in from the right) & paste in between the brackets the part of the post you wanted to quote.
Does that make sense to you? ![]() I click on the icon and it posts two bracketed QUOTE words, the first one without the oblique and the second one with it. Now I have to copy and paste the bit of text I want to quote. The question is where I paste it -in the first set of brackets or the second. Let's see...QUOTE].

EDIT: Well, that didn't work. Drat! EDIT: I've edited and changed it twice now, removing the square brackets and QUOTE word and it hasn't worked whichever way I've tried it. |

[quote=Scots rool;56759163]All you do is put your text in between both sets of brackets. No matter what you do you always have to have the format Quote:
text[/quote <---------- I haven't put the final bracket at the end of the last quote or you won't see what I mean. Ah... You should have said! Does that make it clearer for you?
![]() Here we go. Quote:

It should work this time.

So I would assume that posters who normally split a post into multiple quotes use that icon. Once you know how, it's far easier than typing QUOTE and brackets and obliques for each bit you want to quote.

Not everyone I don't suppose, some people don't know what those icons are for & are too 'scared' to experiment.
![]() However they're there for a reason (to make life easier for you) & they work. ![]() Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah. ![]() I wasn't having a go at you by saying that. Fair point that people may not know. I know the Spoiler one and the spelling checker one (the ABC over a tick sign) in the upper right corner of the message box. I hope the forum help guidance will cover that handy icon for quoting text. |

I always think it's easier to grasp something when you're physically shown. Or maybe that's just me.

We're quite good at mysteries on here - I'm sure we got to the bottom of what exactly happened to some holidaymakers in a spanish apartment who lost a child.

I couldn't log in because my laptop had stored my password for the last 4 years and I couldn't remember it and I was sure the email I had used to register for a reminder was one belonging to my old ISP and I couldn't use it anymore
a quick email to DS support and problem solved - was an email I still used albeit rarely - panic over Must say I was highly impressed with DS Suppport's super fast response - well done guys - gold star coming your way
