Forum Updates - Proper Quotations are back
Posted: Tue Dec 03, 2019 5:07 pm
As part of a big update a few months back, the quote function was no longer working properly and this has now been rectified. Better, the original quote also contains an arrow pointing up which links to the quoted post - this makes it easier for readers to check the original.
Quotes can also be manually made, for example to reference a person / source external such as a quote from another source.
The example is below, when using the BBcode (buttons) above the posting field to format my post, I add ="Spock" inside the 'open quote' BBcodde and the content inside the quotation marks is then shown as the attributed author / source.
