Clover13 Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 A member must have been accidentally multi quoting posts and hit the limit. Now they don't know where the quoted anything. Is it possible to clear their multi quote selection? Seems to span multiple topics.
Nathan Explosion Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 If not a mobile, then clear the following from "Local Storage" (screenshot from Firefox, developer tools accessible via Ctrl + Shift + I)

I have to explain to a non-technical member, once I get into Dev Tools, they're going to be lost in the sauce.

If using Chrome, clear "Cookies and other site data" If using Firefox, you can delete a specific site's data... Marc and Clover13 2
Solution Clover13 Posted August 29, 2023 Author Solution Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) Turns out this was even easier 🤦♂️ Just click the X to the right of the popup at the bottom right of the screen that has the number of Quoted Posts selected. That clears them all out. Note you can multi Quote posts across topics and that list gets carried around. Seems a bit odd, as you can selected quoted posts from one topic and use them in another topic where they wouldn't have any context. Not sure if that's by design or not.

Sorry my fault, I had no idea that X would do anything more than simply close out the window in the active browser window/tab. Hard to tell there that the X is a "clear" and not just a "close" popup.
