Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
dutchsnowden Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 So in 4.6.9 is not possible anymore to edit the Quote to include author of the quote? In the past, with markdown was possible to do this. Ravion 1
Solution Marc Posted January 11, 2022 Solution Posted January 11, 2022 That is correct if you manually add a quote using the editor. You could do it manually in HTML should you wish to do so, but that would be the only way SeNioR- and Ravion 2
stu_m Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Why would you want to tag the author of the quote? Ravion 1

The only way to do this without a modification is to not use the Quote button to quote the entire post, but to instead highlight the text you want to quote and then press the "Quote Selection" button that appears next to this text. I did this above with your reply earlier and you can see what it looks like. Ravion 1

dutchsnowden Posted January 12, 2022 Author Posted January 12, 2022 I am definitely miss something here. Can you show me the text below in a quote "CNN said:" and I will post a text from cnn.com here. Quote A federal judge in New York on Wednesday denied a motion to dismiss a lawsuit against Prince Andrew filed by Virginia Giuffre, a woman who alleges she was sexually trafficked to the royal when she was underage. I need same, with "CNN Said" as I am quoting a pasted text quotation. Not a forum post. Ravion 1

dutchsnowden Posted January 13, 2022 Author Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Yeah, @Marc Stridgen said that with source/html I can do that, minutes after I posted the topic, but I do not want to activate HTML posting for all members. Edited January 13, 2022 by dutchsnowden Ravion 1

You could maybe achieve this by creating a custom button for your users to use. Just another thought for you. dutchsnowden and Ravion 1 1
dutchsnowden Posted January 13, 2022 Author Posted January 13, 2022 Is there any documentation on how I could achieve this? Ravion 1
