I've noticed that some people have quotes from others inside a white box in their posts. How do you do that? I think I'd find it useful.

You see to the very right side of all posts, there is a bar that says "Quote", Choose the post you wish to quote and then click on the "quote" connected to that post. Then the quoted text appears in the white replybar. I do it like this here below. Then you see I choosed to quote the words of Your Nickname:

If its a long text and you wish to quote just parts of it you can delete and save just the words that is relevant to you. Just make sure the text stays within these marks ][ -->quote]like this, keep the quoted text within this area[/quote

Another way to quote just parts of a bigger text is to copy and paste a sentense, keep it marked and then click the image to the very left side in the bar above. The bar where you also can bring on photos, links,YouTube videos and so on..

Then it looks like this. The nickname of the person you quote wont come along, it just says "Quote"


Dont hesitate to ask again if you dont get it. I tried to not explain it so blurred.

I can quote the entire thing, but not sections.
