How do I use Multi-Quote?

Nah, then his name won't even show up

and then for everything else, just use that "highlight then quote" trick

Aal_Mahmud;36354813 said:Hey, I'm pretty new here. Can someone tell me how to quote multiple different posts and reply to all of them at once in a single message?

I think this exact question was already answered in this thread, but if I tried reading through everything right now, I'd probably just get confused and lose track...

My bad! This post is totally useless. Forget my question, I figured out how to do it just now. Thanks.

Just deleted, marked, and hit the icon—done.

Pretty sure this was already answered in this thread, but I don't have the patience to dig through everything right now... would probably just confuse me more.

So far, three planets outside our solar system—known as exoplanets—have been discovered that experts believe could potentially support colonization by future generations.

just practicing

Back in May, American astronomers identified Gliese 581 D, located roughly 20 light-years away. It’s about six times the size of Earth and part of a system containing at least six planets. Three months later, a Swiss person reported that another planet, HD 85512b, situated 36 light-years away, might also be habitable.

practicing quoting... showing my mom... yay

The planet in the valley constellation has a mass approximately 3.6 times that of Earth.

Here is my process (I’ll go into as much detail as possible): From the very beginning....):
To quote a post: first, hit the Quote button so the original message appears. Highlight the specific section you want to address, then click that little icon—you know, the one that looks like a comic book speech bubble. Wrap the designated text by placing "quote:" at both the beginning and the end.I’ll add my commentary right after that quote at the end. Then, I'll highlight the second section again. Same process: icon, followed by my response behind the quote.

.....

Why does everything end up trapped inside one giant quote block at the bottom of my post—including both my smaller quotes and my actual comments? It makes sense, given that my own comments are tucked inside the main quote block. Doesn't it?
I’m missing something. Either I’m doing something wrong, or there's a step I've completely overlooked, and for some reason, nobody can tell me what it is.🤷

....

Everyone keeps telling me to highlight the text, hit the icon, and leave a comment. So that’s exactly what I’ve been doing, but look at the results I'm getting...

.....

Something isn't clicking. I’m asking for someone with a bit of patience to look over my work; I need help identifying exactly where my logic is failing.🙂

Edit: This version works much better.

I have a feeling this exact question has been addressed somewhere in this thread already, but honestly, trying to dig through everything right now would just lead to a massive headache and I’d probably lose my way before finding the answer.

My bad! Scratch that—this post is totally redundant. I figured out how to do it just now. Thanks anyway.

vividraven7 said:This was my first time trying this test. Honestly, all it took was a tiny bit of focus and enough time to actually read what everyone else wrote. I'm not trying to be difficult or mean, it's just that everything is laid out right here. No point in me overcomplicating things with an explanation.
One of the moderators (some guy with a name like Scorpios or whatever) said he couldn't have made it any simpler than this.

Once you've tagged them all, just click the regular Quote button on that final post. Everything should automatically wrap itself in those quote tags, giving you the freedom to clean up any fluff, bold the parts that actually matter, or slide your own commentary in between the blocks of text. It's pretty straightforward, really.

Walter Reyes2 said:Is there anyone out there willing to take the time to walk me through this 😁 step-by-step? I need someone to explain how to format the quotes properly. What exactly am I supposed to delete, what do I need to add, or which buttons should I be clicking to get everything looking right? Honestly, I’ve been scrolling through these forums reading one person say one thing and then another person saying the complete opposite, and it’s leaving me totally lost—nothing I try seems to work! Can someone just give me a straight answer, like a standard forum setup where you list the username and then the text right next to it? I’m seriously at my wit's end here. 😕 Thanks in advance 🙂
