Hi!

When you are citing someone and using "quote" like this (quote) ....blaa .... (/quote) and you want to add personal nick in it, how do you do it?

I tried to do it this way: (quote="mrV") ....... (quote), but it didn't work. Is it even possible or not on this forum?

( ) meaning [ ]
 
Hey V, just wanted to welcome you.

As to your question, I am just barely smart enough to answer fish problems. I'll let someone else answer your query. :)
 
Hi mrV welcome to the forum :thumbs:

To quote someone. Look in the top right of there post. The righthand button is "Quote" click on this and it will open the reply window. With two areas, the first one is for you to type your reply and the second will have thier post, you can edit it to what you want to quote.
You can only do this once for ecah person per reply.

If you want to do several quotes. Use the Quote button in the reply window. It'll look like this.
Code:
[quote]copy this[/quote]
will show
copy tihs

So, how do i manged to do several quote with nickname?
 
Ok its possible the only problem is you have to cut and paste what the others said and the time and their name eg:

You can change the time and who said it but basically the code you need to work universally is:

quote=NAME,TIME]What they say![/quote
or
quote=mrV,21 Aug. 2002,12:10]test[/quote

just put a [ and ] around the first and last quote respectively.  I left them out to show you the code.

I had never even thought about using it myself.

Welcome to the board and good luck!
