Since 2 people have asked about this so far, I'm gonna attempt to explain it. I really hope this somewhat makes sense. If you have any questions at all or want me to try to explain something in a different way, don't hesitate to post. Also, if you know any quicker ways to do this or other tips for multi-quoting, let us know. I'm gonna add some sample posts below this so that you can quote them to test this out, etc. Since I can only post under 1 name, I'm gonna add RB character names. These names represent the users posting. For example, when I quote Traci-fan, it represents someone with the username "Traci-fan". Btw, who says I can't have a little fun with these sample posts? Read this very slowly, and do the steps as you go, to get the hang of it. I know it seems impossible, but trust me, you get the hang of it real fast once you actually do it. Feel free to use the sample posts I added under this and test it out for yourself. Remember to use the Preview button under the Reply box before you submit your post, so can see what it looks like before you post it. Also....anywhere where I have put asterisks (*), remove them before you post. To quote Traci-fan & Andy-fan individually Step 1. Right click on the quote button below Traci's post and open it in a new tab, copy/cut whatever is in the "Quoting" box and paste into into the Reply box. Step 2. Add the the following to the beginning & end of Traci's quote, but without the asterisks (*), so it looks like this: [*quote=Traci-fan]Traci: Hey Andy, called to see how well Sam is healing.[*/quote] Step 3. Add your comment right under the quote, just like this: [*quote=Traci-fan]Traci: Hey Andy, called to see how well Sam is healing.[*/quote] Love that Traci called Andy....she knows she's with Sam. When you post Step 3 without the asterisks (*), it looks like:
Love that Traci called Andy....she knows she's with Sam. Step 4. Repeat Steps 1-3 (am I the only one that just had Brian McKnight "Back at One" pop in my head? )Make sure to change the name after "quote=", and paste the Andy quote under the Traci quote, like this: [*quote=Traci-fan]Traci: Hey Andy, called to see how well Sam is healing.[*/quote] Love that Traci called Andy....she knows she's with Sam. [*quote=Andy-fan]Andy: He's doing much better, thanks to me and pistachio ice cream. *laughs*[*/quote] Awww, she brought him the ice cream! When you post Step 4 without the asterisks (*), it looks like:
Love that Traci called Andy....she knows she's with Sam.
Awww, she brought him the ice cream! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To quote Traci-fan & Andy-fan together If the two posts are NOT already quoted together, you can do this: Step 1. Repeat Steps 1 & 2 from the top of this thread for both posts, but do not add the [*/quote] at the end of Traci-fan's quote, so it looks like this: [*quote=Andy-fan][*quote=Traci-fan]Traci: Hey Andy, called to see how well Sam is healing.[*/quote]Andy: He's doing much better, thanks to me and pistachio ice cream. *laughs*[*/quote] I agree with both of you!
I agree with both of you! ------------------- You go in order of who posted most recently. For example, Andy-fan posted most recently and Traci-fan posted before her....so you put the "quote=username" tags in that order....[*quote=Andy-fan][*quote=Traci-fan] The username on the inside of all the boxes is the person who posted the earliest, and the username at the top is the person who posted most recently. Inside the box to outside the box = earliest poster to most recent poster. Then, you add [*/quote] at the END of each's person's quote. After adding the quote tag at the end of the last person's quote, add your comment on the next line. If the two posts ARE already quoted together, you can do this: Step 1. Repeat Step 1 from the top of this thread Step 2. Add your comment on the next line Step 3. Repeat Step 1 from the top of this thread again, using the quote button for the next post you're wanting to quote Step 4. Add your comment on the the next line __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To quote Traci-fan, Andy-fan, & Oliver-fan individually Step 1. Repeat Steps 1-4 from the top of this thread, except add the 3rd quote under it You do everything the same way as you did when you quoted Traci-fan & Andy-fan individually, but you hit enter once or twice to add a space, then add the Oliver-fan quote in at the bottom, just like how you put the Andy-fan quote in under the Traci-fan quote. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To quote Traci-fan, Andy-fan, & Oliver-fan together Step 1. Repeat the steps you did when quoting Traci-fan & Andy-fan together, except add the 2nd set of posts under it You do everything the same way as you did when you quoted Traci-fan & Andy-fan together, but you hit enter once or twice to add a space, then add the Oliver-fan quote in at the bottom. So this time, the quote tags at the beginning will be ordered like this: [*quote=Traci-fan][*quote=Andy-fan][*quote=Oliver-fan] because that's the order the posts came in Feel free to test it out in this thread. Don't forget to use the Preview button. Good luck!

Awwwwww svugirl, thank you for this detailed explanation Just one thing, in you example of quoting Traci & Andy together, I think how you quoted mean Andy wrote first and Traci second, instead of the other way round :) Allright, time to test out:
Awww aren't these so cute I think I got it! |

So I gave in and tried it in a few ways, and none of the ways worked. lol I dunno how it works, cuz the quotes never show in any way I try to reply. Even if I hit the quote button, only that quote shows. |

Man, you're good to catch that after reading all that text. I guess that's why I messed all that up....too much text & html to mess with at once. lol You're a good student! I think I fixed it. Editing that made me see another mistake I made. I changed "you go in order of who posted first" to "you go in order of who posted most recently". I think I had that part backwards too. Does it work better now? I added a box comparison to remember it also. See if it makes sense or if I need to correct anything else. I'm glad you caught those errors, so let me know if you see any more. Edited by svugirl, Sep 22 2011, 09:17 PM.

It's my job to catch things in long texts, I'm a secretary But again, thank you so much for having taken the time to explain this, it works well for me!Another thing I noticed, this might be confusing I don't know:
You say don't add the "quote" thingie at the end of Traci's quote but it is there anyway... I don't know :) And lol at the Brian McKnight comment, forget to say
