Ok, so CLEARLY there is a quote capability.

I don't see it.

Normally, in a post there is a pair of buttons at the bottom: Reply and Reply With Quote.

Here, those are missing. If I click the Switch to Full Reply button, one of the buttons is Insert Quote. Am I go and find the original post that I want to quote and manually copy paste the posters name and info into the quote?

@gabatgh, best way to quote is to use the little "switch to full reply" button. You can even do this when you are partway through your response. then highlight the text that you are quoting, and press the radio button that is second from the far right above the text. it looks like a sheet of paper with a red arrow pointing to the right.

By the way, these are very cool coinstar finds!

Yeah, that didn't work for me.

I started typing this text. Then I went to your last message, selected it and clicked that button. All that does for me is put the quote and /quote tags.

As for coinstar, she checks it in every store we go into. In the last year or so, she's found about thirty six dollars, plus five silver dimes, and one silver quarter.

There there's the two dozen or so tokens from local arcades, twenty or so oddball tokens, like from a church or AA or a police fraternity.

Finally, she found twenty seven different types of foreign coins, with duplicates of many of those, from twenty countries, with the oldest be the 1942 Netherlands East Indies.

People look at her funny when she climbs up to check the tray but even at six years old she just ignores them because she knows the treasure that could be there. Will be in there.

Dude, that is exactly what you need to do! Just make sure that the quoted text is in your reply.

Your daughter is bringing you good luck with Coinstar. That is great!

So, then I was originally correct. There really isn't a way to quote a previous post. Someone would have to hunt for the text to quote and manually add the quote code to insert and make the quote that way.

No, those are HER coins. She has her own coin box. Each coin is in a flip with a tag of what it is, when she got it, and whether it was found in a coinstar machine. We also help her maintain a master list of countries, with the oldest year coin from that country.
