Quoting multiple posts?
Can anyone tell me how to quote multiple posts from a thread in a single reply? I have seen it done many times but have not been able to figure it out.
Thanks,

Quote the first message and copy it (control C), then go back and quote the second message and paste the first quote. If you want quote more, copy both, go back, etc.

For each post you want to quote, click the multiquite button in that post (the one next to the normal quote). Except on the last one you want to quote; for the last one click the normal quote button. That will bring you to a screen with each of the posts shown in your reply as quotes, and you can add whatever text you like.

I didn't try this one but I'm sure it works too.

That was pretty easy! By clicking the multi quote it changes the plus sign to a minus sign. You need a minus sign on each post you want to quote and as stated, click Quote on the final one.

Glad you've got it working. I figured it out on one of the numerous other forums that I use/used to use; it's a good thing forums share so many common features.
Get out there and get quoting!!
