Reply to "How to use the Quote feature....and other questions about the share symbol...."

OGR CEO Publisher posted:

...If you want to quote someone in order to respond to their post, you will click on the share symbol and then copy it. When you get ready to respond on the thread, just paste what you copied first...then go ahead and make your response and publish it to the thread. You will see that a link to the post you copied and are responding to is there. 

I prefer the previous "reply with quote" method.  Yes, quote sometimes, if not often was not used most efficiently where a quote user could or should've trimmed the original source post so as not to regurgitate a sometimes long multi-subject and picture filled post for a response to one specific item within.  Trying to include multiple quotes has become a chore over the past several "updates" to forum software unless your ability to html source-code or whatever it's called is up to snuff.

Another NOW-MISSING feature is when selecting Print Topic, the ability to select single, 10 or 100 posts.  Sometimes I would print a thread (either PDF or paper) for future reference and the ability to see all the topic's posts is more useful than the current software's single/individual post version.
