Suggested change for the "quote" function

[doctorwayne]

You can do multi quoting. You need to reply to the thread. While you are in the compose screen, the history of the thread is at the bottom of the window. I think you can click quote buttons from the history and it will insert those quotes where your cursor is. It's pretty functional, but hard to find/figure out.

Looks like it is still doing it. Just tried to quote a post from Robert in this thread: http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/posting.p...=17&p=8031

and it came up like this:

Robert, if the plywood board has warped, I would suggest getting some steel studs designed for wall construction use. Remove the old frame, all structures, and any removable details, and lay the studs on a couple of saw horses with the plywood layout board laying on the studs. ...
The only reason that I can see for actually tearing down the layout and starting over is if you are going to build a bigger layout, or have decided to radically change the track plan and it is easier to remove and replace everything than it is to modify the existing layout.

Thanks, Russ -- I appreciate this info. I guess I could buy the steel studs from Home Depot and similar places? Rob

Showing both Russ's and Roberts quote when it should be only Roberts quote lol

**EDIT** Well hmmmm thats weird, when i tried to post it how it originally was it wouldnt let me lol and said; "You may embed only 1 quotes within each other.". Anyways, it still came up with both there quotes when i clicked on quoting only Roberts Quote.

When I want to quote previous post, the forum automatically quotes everything in the post including any other quotes that were in that post, then when I try to submit it, it won't let me until I delete all of the extraneous quotes that I didn't want to quote anyway. If I wanted to quote a previous post that the person quoted to reply to, I would have quoted that post directly. I think it would be easier if the forum was set to quote only the reply in the post being quoted without quoting any quotes that are in that reply.

Hey, you're right: it works!!
