Adam, please try to get my point. You seem to have trouble to accept that something may be broken...

I speak slowly now

- Scroll to post #2 of this thread.
- Click onto the QUOTE button (the leftmost one in the bottom right corner of the post (ignoring a possible EDIT button))
- Submit (or look at the markup generated, you'll see it already there...)

What you get is a quotation like in my post #26 (called Test 1).

What you are supposed to get, though, is something as in post #27 (called Test 2). This used to work until a few days ago.

Are you getting it now? I hope so.

In normal speed speech:
Nested quotation is broken.

Nested quotes are never auto-generated outside of the PM system.

Have a look a this test thread, conducted on a stock version of vBulletin: Quote Test - vBulletin Community Forum

I must have been confused by the new design and mixed things up with a different forum I am using which does have nested quotes.

Please, receive my sincere apologies.

No problem! I had myself also gotten confused and had to double-check that nested quotes were indeed only used in PMs.
