Thanks to a suggestion from an awesome DiveBuddy member, you can now quote single lines or the entire post. And best of all, you can quote multiple times in one reply. I also may be adding the ability to quote the main forum topic too. I’ll post an example of a reply with quotes.

From Greg: What an awesome feature Greg!


To quote just this one line, I hovered over the reply above and clicked the Quote link. Then on the quote page, I selected (highlighted) the line I wanted to quote. Then I clicked the Quote button. That copied the quoted text to the text box, then I entered down once and started adding this reply. Pretty cool huh?!

I can’t believe I’m just now getting around to adding this feature.

If quoting a prior quote, you do not need to select who the prior quote was from...otherwise you end up with "From Greg: From Greg:".
