Thank you, I'll try that next time

Have realised something else the last few nights.. When someone replies and we're quoting their reply we have to make a space between our message and the reply, I'm learning lol

testing..

Not sure I get what you mean, but if it works comfortably, then carry on doing it.

I didn't explain it very well did I lol. Actually your reply is an example of what's happening. On the screen mine and your comments are separated, but in my Reply box they come up as being all one post, so I now have to separate the two by creating a paragraph between them. Does this make more sense lol, it's no big problem I just have to be more alert when replying. Thanks for all the helpful advice you share with us btw

The quote you have highlightes should appear in a box with a fine dotted line around it.

You have to ensure you start your reply underneath that box and not inside it.You may need to scroll down slightly to do it.

Yes, this makes sense. When you highlight a couple of quotes, they do get merged into one and you have then separate them, but there is a way around this which others have spotted. What you do is to highlight your first quote, then click Post Reply. Then I make sure that the cursor (the flashing little line) is positioned in a blank space below the box containing the first quote. Then I click Cancel. Then highlight the second quote. Note this can be a bit tricky as you may find that some other text may get highlighted including the first quote which you don't want but it can be done. Also note this will only work where the second quote is on the same page as if you change pages, the comment you have created so far is lost. Then click Post Reply and there is the second quote in it's own box, just like the above.

Hi Brisket, thanks for reply  I've decided not use quotes for replying atm as it's still confusing lol. Yes I get what you said about replying under the fine line which hasn't been a problem, it's just the quoting and separating someone's reply I'm having problems with. Also still having problems with creating a new paragraph, I followed the advice earlier about refreshing the page and Reply Box but sometimes have to do it a few times before it works, more patience is needed I guess lol.

El Loro, thanks also for your reply  I didn't use to have this quoting problem but maybe it's been happening since the changeover, but at least I'm not the only one then?

I'll copy out your advice as at first read it seems a bit complicated - that'll be my brain cells being a bit slow at the moment lol  - so I need to digest it then will try it out. You're all so helpful, thanks muchly

I guess so Yellow Rose. Me too. My improvement is steady but at least it is improvement.

It is because of the changeover and it affects everyone.

Is it a good read Xochi??

Strange! It's always seemed to be that way for me.

A little cutting and pasting and editing allows you to do the multiple quotes all in one go, without multiple openings, closings and highlightings of text and reply boxes.

Multiple quotes will be automatically entered into your reply box in the order that you quote them.

Aha! Thought I'd manage it ^^ eventually.
Still a bit convoluted though.

  as long as we're going onwards and upwards it's good news eh?

Knowing it's not just me makes me feel better

Oops Fluffy I quoted you but clicked Submit before adding comment lol. Anyway meant to say I'll try that as well, whatever method is quicker is the way to go
