How to quote previous post?

[David.G.P]

I can't seem to find any way to quote an entire previous post, or parts of it.

Has this functionality been removed?!

That was a Jive feature. Khoros (currently) can't quote text, although it is one of the improvements that Adobe has requested of them and is, I think, in development.

I'm afraid you're going to have to copy and paste the text you want to quote until the feature is added.

I appreciate your replies,

and remain facep🤦‍:male_sign:🤦‍:male_sign:🤦‍:male_sign:🤦‍:male_sign:🤦‍:male_sign:ing about the unbelievable anachronism of not having a quote function in a forum software in 2020, when every other forum freeware has had this for like 20 years.

Khorus has been something of a mess from the outset. I still don't understand the rationale for choosing a platform missing so many features that are standard elsewhere. My biggest beef is that, while we finally have a way to quickly find the most recent response in a thread, there's no easy way to find other recent responses that can be scattered over multiple pages, and this issue is exacerbated by the nesting replies.

Well said, linsims.

That sounds like a similar "rationale" as the ones that have lead to ruining their own products like for example Adobe Acrobat. 

Textbook cases of utter management screw-up.

Another "great" (read: moronic) feature is that you are notified of your OWN forum posts via e-mail.
