An "How To" FAQ?

(1/2) > >>

Ona:
Hi All,

Sorry to bother you with stupid stuff like this...  but I don't understand how to use the quote button - never mind a bunch of of other options when I post.  (Like what on earth is "Toggle View")

Is there a FAQ already in existence to explain how things work here?  (I've searched and searched and can't find one).

If there's not, I guess my most important question is how do I insert quotes from multiple posters in my responses.  I read the thread about the "new" quote button - it came up on Search.  Does that mean I hit quote to get the automatic HTML and then go back and cut and paste into it?

Sorry again for bothering you busy and wonderful people with such a silly question.  If there is a FAQ, just send me the link.

Thanks ever so,

Ona

The easiest way to quote multiple people is to either use the quick reply function, or open each post you wish to copy into a new tab.

Maybe this will help?

Ona:
Thank you Enjorous & Amber...

Yes, I read the introduction to simplemachines, but couldn't find many specifics on "how to".

And I'm not sure what you mean by opening the post in different tabs...  When I hit the quote button, all I get is the HTML for quotes.  Do I hit the quote button on the specific posts I want to quote?  Do I go back and cut and paste between the " " as it were?  At another forum I spend quite a bit of time at, if you want to quote multiple posts, there's a checkbox - almost invisible - that you have to check in each of the posts you want to quote.  Is it something like that?

Thanks in any case, for answering my call for help  ;)
