quoting in threads
« on: October 11, 2009, 08:12:42 am »
I can't use the automatic quote function in the forums ( {quote} tag works , but i can't insert origin ) , it pops up a window saying it can't load quote template . I see guys all aroun use it , so it's probably at my end . I'm using FireFox on Ubuntu machine . Can anyone help ?

I can press the "quote" button on someone's post, but not use the "Insert Quote" feature. Is this what you mean? I've mentioned it a few times to meep, but I this is pretty low down on the priority list.

Just type it all out:

Code:
[quote author=Alvarin link=topic=4621.msg61005#msg61005 date=1255254972]

[/quote]

But you can ditch the link= and date=..

I think I fixed it. Please let me know if I broke anything else in the process.
