For some reason it seems like I'm never able to multi-quote any post for both my computer and tablet.

I'm wondering if there is a problem in the site, or if it's a restriction.

Any help?

I'm about as low-tech as is possible while being here. My first through is that you may not be doing it correctly, since that was my issue. I don't know about tablets, but it should definitely function on a computer.

For each post except the last one that you want to quote, you click on the button that looks like a close-quotes with a plus symbol below them. For the last of the posts you will quote, you click on the button that's the quill on paper and the word Quote.

If you only use the multi-quote button, it doesn't work.

Tell you what. I'll post a couple more posts here so you can experiment.

Hey, what do you know, here's another post you can use in multiquoting. Pretty damned exciting, don't you think?

Maryn, easily excited

Good golly, this thread now has four, count 'em four, posts. That should be enough to practice on. Fingers crossed for it working!

By golly, I think I got it. Thanks, Maryn. I've been trying to figure this out too.

Yeah I think I got it now. You see I never pressed the quill button. I didn't even know what did.
