Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Greg W Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Has the nested quotes feature been removed in 4.1? I have been searching the ACP and cannot find it
RevengeFNF Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 I also noticed that was not being able to do nested quotes and I can't find the option in acp. Was it removed?
RevengeFNF Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 @Charles Can you tell us if it was removed? Just to know if im crazy or not ,)
bubblesnout Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 My members have found that nested quotes are working on mobile but not through the desktop. Can't find any relevant settings in ACP. Can someone from IP clear this up?
Management Matt Posted November 13, 2015 Management Posted November 13, 2015 The nested quotes have been problematic right back to the 3.x days. In 4.0, there was the option to allow them, but there were various problems with them. We had a lot of bug reports saying that they weren't working right, leading to blank posts and sometimes broken posts. We looked at various options but they never fully solved the problem. In 4.1, we have removed that option. Now when you quote a post that contains a quote, that quote is removed. However, you can still manually nest quotes if you were so inclined. Sometimes we have to make a decision to ensure the product's stability and we never want to leave a feature in that we know does not work correctly and causes you and your members problems.
Greg W Posted November 13, 2015 Author Posted November 13, 2015 Thanks for the explanation @Matt My site never had the issue you described in 4.0, but it is good to know that if others did have the problem it has been removed

Sorry to dig up an old post here @Matt but is there a way i can manually add this ability back? I never suffered from any bugs or problems, if you are unable to provide a solution would you be able to point me in the right direction to do this so i can attempt to play around with this.
BomAle Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 @The.Reaper see i don't tryed with quote bbcode...
The.Reaper Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 Not sure how relevant that is but thanks. @BomAle
