The "multi quote" button

SpecialK · 04-18-2009, 10:52 AM

OK, the "multi-quote" button in the lower right next to the quote button has me stumped.

Can someone explain its use?

Use the multi-quote button if you'd like to quote more than one post in a reply. Simply click he button on any post(s) you want to quote, then hit "Reply" and all the quotes will automatically be placed in your message.

You can also type in between the quotes, if you'd like.

Well Adam has done a fine job of explaining one of the most useful functions of the multi-quote

This typing in between quotes, is invaluable to me...

Having become one of the most popular members of our Pentax Forum, really can be tough at times...
I have so many responses to my amazing photo posts, that if I had to answer each one in its own post... it would be very difficult.

Using multi-quote, I can put the glowing responses together in categories and answer as a group, or answer between quotes to bring a more personal touch to the fans who really go the extra mile to tell me how great I am.

I can only hope that one day you will reach the level of Idolization that I have achieved here on Pentax Forums,
then you too will find the multi-quote function a powerful tool to keep in touch with all of the regular folks...

ps... I find the 'Bold' very useful too...
