How do I quote multiple posts in a reply?
I have wanted to respond to several different members in one post, but I have not yet figured out how to "quote" several different posts in my one reply. Please explain how to do this. Thanks so much! By the way, CD is great!

Click the  button on the posts you want to quote, then click "Go Advanced." The click will open a reply field where you can add your part of the post and trim down the quotes if you only want to include part of the message. You'll see after the click that the board will quote the posts you selected from that thread in your reply.  |

OK, I will try, I just learned myself! Yay! When you find the one you want to copy, at the right bottom of the box it is in is a little quote sign with a plus mark in it. click it and it turns red. Go to the next post you want to copy. Click the quote sign in the bottom of that box. And so on until you have all of the ones you want to copy and quote. Click on the blue post reply button at the bottom left of the page - right above the Quick Reply button. Delete all the words you don't want to use and leave the rest. Then add your comments! Voila! I hope this helps! |
