I will inform the Administartor/s so that they become aware of this.

We may implement it after due consideration.

Thank You for bringing this up.

Difficult to quote though. Somehow I'd activated it but hardly use it.

Absolutely.

..

OK somehow I cannot access any of the blogs :-\ Now that I've decided to view them, I can't access them. Precisely the browser says:

The page isn't redirecting properly
     
     

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

Gives me the same. I think you need to open the quote in a new tab. Then might as well type it and post it there and then itself. :-\

I use firefox. See when I click "Quote" having the quick reply tab open at the bottom the following green bar appears .. Any idea? :-\
Title: Re: quick reply?
Post by: Alpha on June 29, 2010, 10:15:59 am
I use Firefox too... And it's the same version. Except that mine is not green.

You have Quick Reply below.

Does it take too much time to load? Else, open in new tab.
Title: Re: quick reply?
Post by: Alpha on June 29, 2010, 10:20:26 am
Ah okay... I think I got it.

Double click quote if that green thing appears.

Turn off the quick reply and the quote button will work absolutely fine or else open the quote in a new tab.

Yeah, and if you want the Quick Reply to stay, it's better to click the middle click scroll button.  ;)

Yup, I always do that. Thanks.

@Alpha, hmm.. Double click didnt work. Never mind, it's ok, I'm as it is used to using the forums without quick reply. Thanks for trying Alpha. :)

Yes, that used to happen to me.

There is an option on your profile somewhere to be able to 'Quote'.

How to turn on quick reply

1. Press the profile button at the top middle of the main menu interface.
2. Underneath the heading "Modify profile" press on "Look an layout preferences"
3. The option to turn on quick reply is the second last option on the list of preferences.
4. There are 3 options there, to turn it on pick any of the options other than "don't show at all".

Thats all there is to it!
