[Solved] Issues while using the quote feature

? Offline

Issue 1: When I select to quote somebody, all previously typed matter in the post text area vanishes and is replaced by the user's quote. Have to retype.

Issue 2: Resulting from Issue 1, to quote two persons, I have to click on quote for one user, copy it to clipboard, click on quote of other user, and paste the old one from clipboard ...

Issue 3: When I select to quote somebody, the preview is not accurate in terms of what is actually posted. The preview should also show "Userx wrote: and then the text" ... but it just shows the text.

Yup. Get's on my nerves as well.

Another problem relating quoting:

@bq.@
doesn't seem to handle multiple lines. For example, if you give it before one sentence, then there is new chapter, I can't seem to find a way to add that to same quote block.

agreed@smar. So now I use the quote link available below the avatar of the person I'm quoting and then modify what is within the quote tag ... that is more flexible :)

Ok slight problem with issue 1,

If I have text already in the text area, then position the cursor on the first line and use the quote feature, the cursor jumps to the last line in the text area and the quote appears there. I would expect the quote to appear on the first line, before my text.

I'm experiencing another issue with quote feature today. When I press quote, the reply edit is still empty, because no quoting occurred. Only after second click (sometimes 3rd) the message gets quoted.
