Using the "Quote" feature
#1
Question 
It seems like a few people are having issues getting the hang of the "quote" feature. Fair enough! It's a bit more complex than the system Trademe use on their boards. 

Here's a quick rundown:

1) Quote a single post
Simply click the "reply" button below the post you want to quote and reply to.

This will open the "new thread" window with the selected post quoted. Start typing your message underneath the quote box (not inside it, as this will make your reply part of the quote).



2) Quote multiple posts

PLEASE NOTE: This feature allows selecting multiple posts to quote in your reply.  It is intended for the following scenarios only...
  1. Two or more users post much the same content that you wish to reply to.
  2. Two or more users post complementary information about the same topic
  3. A single reply is required to two or more posts

It is not intended to reply to Five different posts with five different replies.  This just creates unnecessary clutter in the thread and makes it difficult for the other participants to reply to you specific comments.  Use the individual reply feature instead

Click the "quote" button under each post you want to quote, then click the "reply" button under the last post.

Hopefully that makes sense! Any questions, feel free to ask below Smile
