I have tried to acquaint myself with the quote system. I confess I don't properly understand it. If I don't want everything said in the post I am replying to quoted, how do I delete the unwanted quotes without messing up the quote boxes? I am not trying to suppress what other have said, I am simply trying to avoid an unnecessarily long post containing something I am not replying to.
I see what you are saying about suppressing evidence. I will endeavor to avoid doing so, and certainly have no intention of that kind.
A quote begins with a tag [quote], usually when you use the reply button, it will have some extra info, like the nick of the person and the post ID (pid) and a dateline. It then ends with a closing tag [/ quote]
You can nest some of them, so you have quotes within quotes.
Just make sure you have as many opening tags, as closing ones.
I admit they can be hard to spot when editing text from someone else, so just keep your eyes peeled!
