How do you ......

1) Incorporate links (that work) ?

2) Incorporate previous thread quotes into your post ?

Thanks

    For links click on the 2nd box from the right (next to envelope)
    For quotes, click on quote on the top right of the message(and also click the bbc code box to get it in nice yellow)

    And welcome

    What about if the 'quote' is on a previous thread page ?

    I can't seem to get that to work...

    Thanks again.

    Something to bear in mind Suede, the forum has a few issues if you are viewing in Mozilla Firefox. Dont know why but whatever version I try, the quotes never appears in the yellow blocks. If you use Internet Explorer, you should have no problems.

    You can quote from a previous thread, you just have to learn the quote and cite tags and do it yourself. Easiest way to do it is click quote on someone's post in the thread you want to post in, and replace their name and post with the content of the post from the previous thread. Simples (sort of).

    For example:
    [cite]Posted By: Example quote[/cite]
    This is an example quote
