Bonehead question

I feel pretty inept here because I could not figure out how to do this myself & now I need to ask. How do you edit your posts so that you can include multiple quotes (from different people), and comment in-between? Same thing for attachments like photos. I can't figure out how to type between them. Clearly I'm a bike geek and not a computer geek!

I do it by pressing Quote on your post. That brings up the new post window. Then I scroll down below the typing space and select and cut what I want to respond to. (all the posts on a particular page are listed in reverse order--you can see them if you scroll down.) Then I scroll back up to the edit window and paste it. Then I highlight it and click on the little yellow quote balloon above.

Go back to the next post you want to quote from and reply to that.
Cut and paste your reply into your keeper (by editing the keeper)

Anyways, that's how I do it.

I'm old fashioned, I just type in the html quote command bracket quote bracket /bracket quote bracket (bracket = [] square brackets, but if I type them in properly you won't see them!) to break up long passages I want to quote. If you want to quote *someone* you need to do a quote=their user name in the first quote command

Testing one more time...want to get the user name in the second quote!

Just practicing. Thanks, all!

Testing, testing.

I see Zen covered the multiple quote thing.

More testing. Thanks for letting me practice!
