Cannot quote posts

[yojichan]

Hello there!

 

Whenever I try to 'multi-quote' or 'reply with quote' as I make posts in the forum.

This is what I only get.

 

[ QUOTE=$originalposter]{$pagetext}

 

I am wondering what the problem could be and whether if I'm only an isolated case.

Has anyone been experiencing this too?

 

Thank you for addressing this query.

I think I know where the problem is. In the new platform there is an automatic quote in PMs. So, I wanted to disable that, but it automatically disabled all the quotes.

This way, in order to quote a message, you'd have to copy the post you want to quote and press the Quote button

 

 

 

But we can't have both. So, either automatic quotes in PMs, either we'd have to quote posts using the Quote button.

 

I hope that in the next vBulletin version (which is in work at the moment) this issue will be fixed.

Thanks so much for the prompt reply, Key.

Yes I do hope so too that the new version will be able to fix this issue.

Using just the quote button dosnt show who the quote is from right? If you put

it shows the name. Like this:

Yeah, you got it. At first you've maybe forgotten to close the tag, as it should look like this:

 

............(The post you want to quote instead of dots)................[/QOTE]

 

Note: Write 'QUOTE' at the end as well, not 'QOTE' as I wrote, but else the code example would have disappeared
