@PaigeMiller, thank you. Now I understand about inserting more than one quote. I agree that you should not need to use HTML for the block quotes.
The only other way (which I agree is not ideal) is to open the full thread in a separate window using the View Discussion in a Popout link below the reply area, inserting a quote and then clearing our the text and pasting different text.
These things that I can do easily in every other forum are not advanced options
(looking for workarounds... I will see if there are others)..
So that you know, I looked on the vendor Website and noticed that this is an idea that someone suggested a while back. I voted for it on behalf of you and me:
http://community.lithium.com/t5/Product-Ideas/Multi-quote/idi-p/1447/page/2#comments
The comment from a community member in that idea was "Allowing a user to multi quote a number of posts helps them (and moderators) to answer a number of questions at the same time. The only way to do this currently is to quote a post, copy + paste and then go back and do that for all the questions that we may need to address."
It appears many others like yourself are asking for this feature! So, thanks for bringing it up. The last status on that idea was in June 2015 " It's still in our active backlog, but has not recently made it "above the line" for investment. We'll update the idea if this status changes." Other people responded after that and "bumped" the idea up for visibility and I am doing the same.
I sure appreciate you bringing this matter up. I see how multi-quotes can make it much more clear when giving answers. Thanks for being part of the community and helping to make it better.
