There must be a trick I don't know All you have to do is: quote the last (most recent) one move the cursor to the beginning of that quote INSIDE the quote box quote the previous one. With a mouse you can drag the little +s about if you get it wrong. I'll let you split this into Site Issues Link to comment
0 BOF Posted May 10, 2017 Moderator Share Posted May 10, 2017 OK having tried it with your post above, that's not what I'm looking to do. I want to quote your post above but I want it to contain the posts that you have also quoted. That's all. I don't want them to go missing. There's no simple way of doing that with one click, without having to browse back to the OP of what you yourself have quoted and then press 'quote' on those as well, and then manipulate them in the manner that you've described. So it's donkey work. Or as I said, "Jaysus it's not easy to quote an embedded quote" Link to comment

If you hover over a quote you get a "move" symbol in the top left. Drag that inside the quote you want to embed it in. Edited May 10, 2017 by Stevo985 Link to comment
