gloryracing Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hoping it is just a site setting or maybe even a setting on my laptop. As stated, I suck with all this interweb stuff, so it could be some sort of operator error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would bet to say that most users are not experiencing this issue so it might be something relative to your computer or browser. Which leads to my question, what browser are you using?

Member Contributer Cogswell Posted June 3, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 3, 2015 Here's a link to the help topics from the main page. http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=help It mentions that there are two modes for replies - Rich Text Editor and Standard mode. Maybe the Standard mode does not accommodate quoting posts. It's toggled by clicking on the icon in the uppermost left hand portion of the reply box. You might try it and see what happens. There was nothing I could see specifically about quoting posts in the help forums tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer The mailman Posted June 4, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 4, 2015 Click on "MultiQuote" first and then click on "Quote". That works for me with IE as well as Google Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Cogswell Posted June 4, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 4, 2015 Firefox is very popular. Download it, then go to your Downloads folder and run the install file. Once installed it will ask you if you want to make it your default browser (you can have more than 1). You might say "no" until you decide if you like it. It should auto-import your Favorites from IE over (FF calls them "Bookmarks" instead). Maybe only use it for VFRD if it solves the quoting a post issue.

Forum CEO HispanicSlammer Posted June 4, 2015 Forum CEO Share Posted June 4, 2015 There is a bb code mode (text mode) and a wysiwyg mode (simple ) look for an icon that looks like a light switch. Should solve your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
