Try using the multiquote option and selecting the same quote multiple times, then deleting the excess.

Does it work if post I'm quoting is a couple pages back? I was able to quote you twice easily since there weren't multiple pages.

I've found this forum's formatted edit box to be one of the more convoluted and difficult forums to actually format correctly. Just give me [bracket] commands and I'm happy. D:

I'm on a android phone, so it's probably more difficult? 

Thanks ?

To quote from different pages, you need to reload the pages that include the quotes you want.

So, you start typing your comment, and when you want to quote from a different page, you go to that page and reload it, your browser will automatically complete right from where you left.

(Same thread/topic only though).

Hi, 

I don't know if you can help me, but I have forgotten how to break apart a longgg quote to answer/reply/post to someone.

I get the quote on my post and I'm clueless??? 

I don't think I understand the question quite well.

But I know that you can't add a quote when you're editing a post.

Quoting will create a new post.

^ This exactly. The forum saves your posts in your browser (sometimes a ridiculously long time so that when I'm trying to write something in my journal, I have to delete a post from a week ago...) BUT if you're concerned about losing work, try opening the previous page in a new tab (hold down the link for a second and select open in new tab - I know this works with Chrome). @Anna1

Say that I quoted you, as I just did and I want to break this quote up to say something to you about the first sentence, then the second sentence,  then the 3rd sentence. Instead of going back to the same post and using quote function (it's hard to find posts somtimes!). Perhaps I just have to quote it many times as @jbram said earlier. 

@jbram2002 I'm on a android cell phone.

Thank guys!

@Anna1 I use Chrome for Android. It's much better than the default browser in my opinion.

I'm using Chrome too. I'm just not too tech savvy. I'm okay, but not advanced, intermediate at best. Hehe.?

Anna, what I do is I quote what I want to quote and I delete the part I don't want to answer in that quote. Then I quote again, and I delete the other part Lol... and I leave the part I want for the second quote.

I don't know if that's what you want to do...

I think that by clearing the browser's data it will forget your posts. Haven't tried it though.

Different browsers can be helpful here, I use both Opera and Chrome, but I prefer Opera since it allows viewing the desktop site very easily.

I don't think there's a way around this issue, you'll probably have to quote multiple times.

I did it and it works, but the problem is you have to do that every time that a quote gets in your post. I think what you suggested is a better your solution.

For Chrome, you can see Desktop versions of sites pretty easily. Hit the ... button at the top right for options, and there's a checkmark for Desktop view. I use it liberally  Not sure how Opera handles it though.

Thanks! I've never noticed it before because it requires scrolling down.

Opera shows it in the same way, only more easily to spot
