Hi guys - can someone tell me, in very simple terms, how you create those quotes from previous entries inside a box? I can't seem to work them out.
Thanks!

You click on the little "quote" sign on the bottom right hand corner of the post that you want to quote from. If you don't want the entire quote, you can delete part of it; just make sure you leave the initial [quote ="name"] and the end [/quote ] intact.

Another way if you only want part of it is to hit 'reply' and then highlight the part you want in the 'Topic Review' and then hit 'quote', which perversely is now at the top right corner :lol:

It's very handy though don't you think - I hadn't even noticed that bit. I do like this new forum :cheers:
