Hi there
When replying to a post, if I want to quote a sentence, I get the full text, regardless what I have selected.
How can I quote just a single sentence from a post?
Thanks and regards

Hi
Unfortunately there is no easy way to do that, other than copying the line and press the quote button in the full editor
Or deleting the excess text...

Re: How can I quote a single line?
The only way to quote a single line and include the username of the person quoted is to use the full editor. You reach this either by clicking on Full Editor and Preview (bottom right) or by clicking on the Post Reply button (bottom left).
You then can scroll through the replies to the person or persons to whom you wish to respond. Select the text and click the quote icon. Then select the next line you wish to quote and click quote again. For example:
First quote;
Second quote;
It's not as simple as the old method but it does allow you to quote more than one person if you wish.
Regards.
