Nashville March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 When in the editor a “box” of quoted post is split into two or more separate subsections and the quoted post’s “topmost” section is deleted, the quoted poster info will appear at the top of each subsection in the editing draft - but doesn’t necessarily show up in the published post.

Meredith Quill March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 So you want to split a post that you're quoting whilst retaining attribution on all parts, is that right? 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/92472-not-a-bug-quote-info-being-lost/#findComment-5166931

Correct; when responding to multiple questions/topics in a single post, it frequently improves readability if each subject can be split out for individual reply.

Meredith Quill April 2, 2019 Share April 2, 2019 Ok good. So the easiest way to do that is to quote each part as you go, like so: On 3/28/2019 at 10:04 PM, Nashville said: When in the editor a “box” of quoted post is split into two or more separate subsections and the quoted post’s “topmost” section is deleted Highlight the text you want to quote and a pop up 'Quote Selection' will appear, click that and it appears in your reply box as above.

Nashville April 3, 2019 Author Share April 3, 2019 I’ve used that method on single-post quotes, but not on multi-quotes harvested from s span of several pages. I’ll give it a try. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/92472-not-a-bug-quote-info-being-lost/#findComment-5179948
