How do you quote more than one post in a reply? I've worked out how to do it with one post, but keep seeing people post with multiple quotes in red. Thanks!
 
Just right click the sentence or paragraph and move the cursor along, when it's highlighted just let go and you will see the word 'Reply' in a shadowy box, just click on that and the quote will be included in your reply.

Just like I've done with part of your post:

Thanks @noblehead but I have seen people with multiple quotes in one post and can't work out how to do that.

Just go to each post in the thread and highlight the parts that you want to reply to, you can do this multiple times if you want and the quoted text will be included in your reply:

Are you using the app or a phone?

PC

None of that works on the website or a PC.

Hold the left mouse down and just move the cursor along to highlight what you want to quote, once you let go of the left-click mouse button you will see the word 'Reply' , just tap on that word and the text will be quoted in your post/reply.

I have to highlight, right click, and copy and paste. I have to do this for each quote.

The above is much easier.

So it does! I've only been on this forum 3 years so I'm just a beginner. :)

Thanks.

I'm using the website on an iPad, so no right or left clicking. Will need to experiment!
