Quoting

[LordSuragaha]

Hello everyone. I've been very active in the forum lately and sometimes I have to use the quote option. The thing is there are times that I have to quote someone but when I hit the quote option it quotes like all the paragraphs that they said on one post. Basically I need help on how do I properly quote a small section of like a bunch of paragraphs with out quoting them over and over again:
Example this is what I mean. (sorry random but yeah hope you understand.)

Lets say Bluewolf said:

Hi my name is Bluewolf I love to sit under trees and howl at the moon.
I love to run through the grass and rolling around in the sand.
My favorite place to sleep is in lonely dry caves.... blah blah.

Let's say all I wanted to properly quote was "I love to run through the grass and rolling around in the sand" without all that other stuff but I still want the quote to appear in that yellow quote boxy thing. Is there like a certain quote citation thing I have to add. I hope you guys understand what I am saying lol. Any help is appreciated.

Easy, you just erase the rest of it. Lolz.


Do not touch this. Which is at the very beginning.

Code: [Select]

[quote author=LordSuragaha link=topic=25822.msg331660#msg331660 date=1345411545]
And this, which is at the end.

Code: [Select]

If you erase these, it won't show up.
Sooo.. now just erase all that extra text.

Ohhh! lol I feel silly now. I did try erasing the stuff inside but I guess I was erasing the first part of the quote citation thing slightly no wonder it didn't work. Thank you Ramine ! I will try it out now with what you said

Yay it worked 

[Ramine]

I'm glad it did. You're welcome.~ ^^

When you post a quote does it show any formatting that the original text had? Like if some of it was bold, would it be bold in the quote or does it revert to regular font and such?
Thank's in advance.

[Ramine]

It remains the same.

It remains the same.

....Unless you delete the formatting codes somehow, like if you wanted to erase some of the quote like LordSuragaha did. In that case you just want to be careful when deleting and not accidentally erase the codes (which will of course also be in the beginning of the post), unless you do want to get rid of them ^.^
