Young Bard Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Simple little edit. Sometimes, people quote things said pages before. To save yourself the trouble, would it be easier that when you click the 'quote' button, it automatically generates a link back to the original post so you can click to go back to it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should already do this, there's a little curly arrow that should link you back to the original post 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haelbarde Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 The one thing that would nice is to be able to quote a post from a locked thread (this has more relevance in the SE subforum, where there is often need to refer to locked threads) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe ST Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Ahh you wish to be able to generate quotes over different threads easily (particularly on locked ones) hmmmmm. Well if you are desperate and willing to do some bbcode and manual work, then inside the opening {quote} tag (with [] instead of {}) insert {quote name="user" post="id"}Hoid is a fish{/quote}, the name should be some suitable user name, the post id should be the long number at the end of the share link (you can see it by hovering over the post number in the top left corner, wait for the url to load then copy the number from the end, or click the post number and extract it from the link itself). Alternatively, I'm sure there should be a way of inserting a raw url into the top of a quote to link to that thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
