HOW TO QUOTE A POSTSometimes members will need to reply specifically to a person or a post, this is when you'll use the quote feature. Click the Quote button in the upper right corner of the post. The posting page will open and the post will already be quoted in the message box. Click below the bottom line of the quoted text box so that your typing cursor will appear OUTSIDE the quote box. From there, you can begin typing your response. If it’s difficult to place the cursor outside the quoted post, or if you’re on a mobile device and it’s difficult to accurately tap below the quoted text, switch to the BBCode tab. You can view the post in Preview or BBCode by selecting the tab at the bottom the posting page. Just place your cursor or tap and the end of the text (after [/quote]), and your reply will show beneath the quoted post. If you would like more information on BBCode and how to format your posts using BBCode, please check this site.
