Welcome to the new Boards.ie platform - Version 1.0 :)

You mean like that?

First copy the text you want to quote so its saved to your clipboard

Whether on desktop or mobile, click this icon

Select "Quote"

You'll see a small indentation like this

Paste your quoted text. Thats it

Its a bit buggy, especially if you are quoting multiple lines, or text from another site that might have hidden characters, so often I paste the text first, then highlight it, then select the quote option. Either way works

Thanks.. didn't have a clue, but I managed to figure it out with yours and @DaCor 's help 😊 Had to go to top right hand corner of screen (on laptop) -after highlighting - into the window's options box after selecting above text, and clicked on copy.. Was grand after that.. Must have spent an hour earlier, and all I seemed to manage was getting that blue/grey vertical bar.. Still don't know what a clipboard is - am assuming it's that "edit box" , or whatever it's called.. Worked anyway,,,

Cheers lads ! 😊

Clipboard is where text is saved when you copy it

You can highlight text and copy it by right-clicking and clicking copy or using CTRL+C and paste using the right-click menu or CTRL+V

Try editing your notification preferences

Thanks, I think I know how it's done now !

That error/issue just involved one extra click to access your PMs.

Nice that it's resolved, but any news on the hyper-sensitive drop-down menus at the top of the desktop page, which are a major PITA?

Or the fact that you can't format text in a post on mobile (or couldn't up until a day or two ago, haven't checked it today, but I'm assuming it hasn't been fixed)?

I'm honestly trying always to be constructive and stay positive - but there's a serious feeling of moving deckchairs on the Titanic about all of this. I can't remember the last fix that actually improved the user experience for me on Boards. (YMMV)

How do I get to use emojis on mobile

Found an easier way of doing it.. Probably obvious to most, but it weren't to me..😁 1: Highlight text 2: Right click straight away (from inside the comment box that I'm highlighting from) , and click 'copy' ... in previous attempts I highlighted the text; and then went back to my comment box, and tried right-clicking, but the option to copy wasn't there 3: Follow the rest of the steps 😊

I think that was a problem for all users but in terms of priorities it would have a very low priority problem.

I think this one was the culprit - 'Notify me when people comment on discussions I've participated in.'

So even if you unbookmark, you get notifications by default. I'm sure it's been discussed many times but couldn't find anything

I've posted so little that I'm only noticing this now

Anything on the advanced functionality for moderators in the works?
