To my knowledge you have to type each one out with:

(quote=username,date,time) text that you want to quote (/quote)


Replace the parentheses with brackets. Date and time are optional.

The process I use involves a lot of post previewing, copying and pasting. AFAIK, there's no simple way to do it.

This board really needs a multi-quote function - that's become a pretty standard feature on nearly every other message board (at least all them using vB).

Don't feel bad Andy, I haven't figured it out either.

At this point, I've given up.

Not too hard, imo.

Except you quoted the same content multiple times. When you're trying to respond to multiple posts across a couple of pages, it's not quiet as easy. Hell, I'm a _long_ time developer (so my technical understanding [and typing skills] is [are] reasonably stout) and I would still like a function so I could flag items as I read them for later inclusion as a quote.

Just seems like a good feature to add to the upgrade queue
