Can someone please tell me how to get 'Originally posted by' as part of any quotes i attach. The ones I attach just have the quote itself.....

Thanks

Just click the {Quote} button on the bottom right hand side of the post that you would like to quote

Rudeboy, thanks for asking this question - I didn't know how to do it either!

Don't suppose you could ask how to add 'links' to sites (where the name appears in blue) too?

It's all explained here, Hels. Good idea to print it off:thumbsup:

Also, you can use the buttons above the box that you type your posts into.

Whilst we are at school :D, how do people put numerouys quotes in? I can see how to quote one person but see replies with various quotes that the poster replies to, (if that makes sense :confused:

Just 'copy and paste' the text you want to quote in between this:

{quote} {/quote}

Do it as many times as you want. Each will result in a seperate 'quote box'

.....but use the alternative brackets to the ones I used. (didn't use the correct ones or it would have made a 'quote' box :)
