I’ve noticed posters quoting other posts in a grey box. How do you do that ?

Atiqui look at the top grey part of your post on the right it says ‘quote’ just click that.

How long has this been possible on Gransnet? I've only noticed it
over the last few days!

I have been asking for a quote facility for years on here, so it’s a great step forward, other forums have always had them.
You can use it to show exactly what you are replying to.?

It certainly is! I’ve been grateful on many occasions for tips that have been posted on GN. ?? (Even though they’ve made me feel a complete numpty for not knowing whatever it was in the first place! ??)

I never knew that either, what a great facility. When I first glanced at this thread, before I saw the "site stuff" I thought it was about hair grin thought hmm, grey highlights might be nice!
