I got a stupid noob question, how do you quote several posts in one post? I see it all the time, but not sure how to do it. I can quote one person, but not 2 or more unless I open another session and copy and paste it into the original.....any of this make sense?

Like Greg said:
It's the little button with the plus sign on it. It will change colors letting you know that it is selected, when you have all the ones you want selected, hit the quote button on the last post you want quoted.

Quick question, I know they are cheap and relatively easy to replace, but do boveda humidipaks continue to perform well if they are "recharged" by adding a few drops of distilled water to the disk at the top of my herf-a-dor and pulling in the extra humidity?

I have a few packs that I've been recharging and reusing for many years now, with no change in performance.

The better way to recharge the pack though is to place it in a tupperware container with a sponge that has been moistened with distilled water. Ensure that the pack and the sponge are not contacting each other and just seal the container up for a week or two.

Thanks! I'll do that.

Nope, still not getting it. I hit the quote button on this particular post and I scroll to the bottom and see the other posts, but no quote button on the bottom right.....I know this is super easy, but I am missing something here. I can copy and paste the post, but then there is no link to it....

Okay click the Multi-Quote button on the bottom right of the first post to quote (It's the little button with "+ on it, located to the right of the quote button). Nothing should happen except the button will change collor. Then click the normal quote button on the second post and they should both appear in your message box.

To the right of the quote button is a button with quote marks and a plus. Click that for each post you want to quote in one post. When you get to the last post, click the quote button button and all posts you "clicked" should be quoted.

You did it!!

irratebass · 09-21-2011, 11:10 AM

HOLY CRAP!!!! It worked thanks.....I know this is like internet 101, but it was driving me crazy!!!

See on my screen I couldn't see that "+" it is just looks like quotations to me, but I got it now and cheers to you all

Thanks, I learn a lot reading this thread. You may think it's a silly question but there are a lot of folks out there like me that don't do forums much and are not well versed in this stuff.

T.G · 09-21-2011, 12:01 PM

Guys, by cluttering this thread up with unnecessary banter, you make it very difficult for those who come along after you with the same questions to find their answers. Please think of the next new smoker who is going to come along after you before you hit post.

EDIT: Mark, not directed at you - your post snuck in there while I was typing.

Ditto, honestly I was opening up all the quotes I wanted in another tab then copying and pasting them into one reply box. It was a pain in the butt. Thank for asking mark and then you to everybody who answered the call.

New smoker thought of with this post.
