I'm new to this and can't figure out how to use the quote button. How can I capture some or all of what someone says without cutting and pasting? Help please.

You hit the quote button instead of the reply button in the post you want to quote then take out what you don't need. Make sure you leave the quote signs at both ends.

I've spaced it out with............ so you can see what it looks like in the example above while your typing. But do us a favour and don't quote half a mile long post just to write a single sentence ;)

AND BELOW IS WHAT IT SHOULD LIKE AFTER YOU POST.
