    Default How Do I Quote a Post That Contains a Quote From Another Post?

    Hopefully that title makes sense.

    Sometimes I want to quote a post that contains a quote from another post... I used to be able to do it, and I don't remember how to anymore!

    I've seen other posters do it, recently, so I know it can still be done... can someone please jog my memory??

    So many thanks, in advance!

    You can manually quote anything by copy and paste and typing as follows (leaving out the spaces that I put in so you can see the words):

    [ quote ] body of text you want to quote [ / quote ]

    Or just find the original post that was quoted and use the multiple post quote
    "Don't cling to a mistake just because you spent a lot of time making it."
