I tried it now and for me there pop up a new grey button far out to the right, above the other buttons.
So it apparently works.
(Even though I have had the habit of putting in dots for the part I leave out of a quote, so as to not give the impression that was all that was written.)

This is probably a really unhelpful question to ask but I have to be totally sure: you don't have Javascript disabled, do you?

"Quote+" adds the post to a list of posts to be quoted. You can click it on different posts to select multiple posts to be quoted (and then remove individual posts from the list by clicking the "Quote-" button). If all's working well, then if there is at least one selected "Quote+" post, a message will appear at the bottom of the edit window: "You have selected one or more posts to quote. Quote these posts now or deselect them". Clicking on "Quote these posts now" (which is a hyperlink) will insert all of the selected posts (quoted) into the edit window. Clicking "deselect them" will... well, you get the idea.

Again, this will only work if Javascript is enabled - but since Firefox makes it difficult to disable, it's highly likely that it is enabled.

OK, thanks for that. Maybe there's a Javascript error due to some sort of compatibility issue. If you're willing to go to this trouble, Max, could you please press F12 to bring up Firefox's web developer tools, then click on the "Console" tab of those tools, and then note down any messages that might appear in the output of that tab when you select text that is supposed to bring up the "Reply" button?

(2018-01-21, 10:02 AM)Max_B Wrote: [ -> ]Ah, Ok that's helpful regarding the quote+- button, it works across multiple posts!

Yes! Is it working for you?
(2018-01-21, 05:22 PM)Max_B Wrote: [ -> ]All I can see is this...

TypeError: MyBBEditor.sourceMode is not a function

That's very helpful, and is probably a clue to the problem. To the very right of that there should be an indication as to the source file and line that the error's occurring in - if you could share that too it would be helpful.

Ah - This is very useful to know. I had thought the quote button was somehow disabled until I read this and tried it. Now I see that I have to confirm the addition of the quote(s) before they appear in the post.

Thanks Smile

That's the sort of thing that would help very much, yes, except it would help even more if you could include the associated error messages too (i.e. similar to what you shared in your previous post, "TypeError: MyBBEditor.sourceMode is not a function"). All I currently see for those is stuff that I can't interpret, such as "<anonymous>", "i", "fireWith", etc.
(2018-01-22, 06:15 AM)Max_B Wrote: [ -> ]This is the information it gives when I click on the original error message. It opens up and provides this information. As far as I can see there is nothing else available.

OK, don't click on the error message: just quote the error message itself (to the far left) as well as the associated source file+line+position (to the far right). You've provided all of this already, just not in the same posts!

Thanks, Max. Have sent you a PM.
(2018-01-19, 07:24 AM)Laird Wrote: [ -> ]Did you ever get this working, Typoz?

No, sorry.

I tried a couple of different browsers and two different PCs, one was a bit outdated, the other has an up-to-date version of Firefox on windows 8.1. I didn't dig any deeper, though I tried non-Firefox browsers too, without success (not sure if it was chrome or opera, I use both from time to time, but firefox regularly). Sorry this is a bit vague, it wasn't a priority for me at the time.
No worries, thanks for the feedback. From what Max has shared it could be a bug in the Javascript, but why it affects only some browsers on some computers is still a mystery, and I don't yet have enough info to debug in detail.
