Block-highlight the bit of text you want to quote, then click “+quote” just underneath. Then, when you reply, click “insert quotes” at the bottom of the reply box.Since I am a member, I wonder how "quote" is used (between "like" and "reply")? Thanks in advance for making me less stupid!
Try it out, let me know if you hit any problemsWell, that's it!
And I just had to answer!I just had to ask!
De rien, mon amiThanks a lot!
And what is the difference with 'Reply' asks this dummy!?Block-highlight the bit of text you want to quote, then click “+quote” just underneath. Then, when you reply, click “insert quotes” at the bottom of the reply box.
You can do multiple quotes from the same post or from different ones at the same time if you want.
You can also “quote” a picture or pictures, but only if they’re inserted as thumbnails, not if they’re just attached to a post as attachments.
“Reply” quotes the whole post you’re replying to. You might want to reply to a specific part of that post, rather than to the whole thing, and then you need to use “quote”And what is the difference with 'Reply' asks this dummy!?
Thank you! But you can also reply to parts of a post by selecting it. Then two options pop up for that selection : either '+quote', or 'reply'. I did the above reply by selecting the text and clicking 'reply'. So, the difference remains unclear for me.“Reply” quotes the whole post you’re replying to.
Well then the difference is that you can use “quote” to gather highlighted chunks of several different posts and quote them all together in one reply. You can’t do that with “reply”Thank you!

Well, actually you can gather together a clutch of whole replies - or even a mixture of quotes and whole replies - but the 'quote' option is useful if you want to pick a bit out from a lengthy, wordy post.Well then the difference is that you can use “quote” to gather highlighted chunks of several different posts and quote them all together in one reply.
