Lately I have noticed a few people commenting in their posts that they don't know how to quote more than one person per post. I have sent out information regarding this via PM, but thought I would post it since we have so many new members. I know this information is available in the Literature Network site section, but it is buried down aways, so I hope it is ok that I put it here, where it is a little more accessible. I figured I would post it, and then not have to bother anybody else with my dumb PMs. (hey, that looks like PMS) :p
Multiple quotes:
to do this all you need is a little bbcode. What that means is if I want to have just a quote, I enclose what I want to say with the following code MINUS the " marks.
"["quote]to be or not to be[/quote"]"
This tells the forum to put to be or not to be in a quote box.
If I want to quote somebody specific I use their name in the first instance of code and also use the = symbol.Quote:
to be or not to be
"["quote=kathycf]I have a sock monkey[/quote"]" and I end the quote in the same way, with a /
Code is always surrounded by brackets "[" and the ending part always has a slash "/" . Remember not to use any spaces in your code, and to omit the quotation mark and that should work for you just fine.Quote:
