Problem with Quoting Empty Problem with Quoting

Post by cstuart316 December 18th 2011, 12:38 am

The site I am Admin on has been having problems with quoting when Admins quote. When a regular member quotes, it simply restricts the regular member to have only one quote. However, when an Admin quotes, there is no restriction, and often times, if Admin quotes Admin then there are quotes within quotes, but it tends to get a little out of hand at times.

Does anyone know where you would go in the Administration Panel to fix this problem, if it can be fixed?

If you need more information, or don't get exactly what I am saying, I could explain it better.... banana

EDIT: This is the problem we are encountering when Admins quote, see this is a conversation between Admins, so it starts to get out of hand quickly.

Problem with Quoting Help210

What happens when a member quotes, which we are trying to also make this happen for admins, is this:

Problem with Quoting Help110

Also, a member just told me the exact wording, and when you quote something, this comes up in a box above the reply box saying "the administrator has lowered the quote level to 1. You will only see the last 1 quotes". How can I do this for Admins also? bwi

Are you sure? It says 0= unlimited... And it didn't work for me. Shit
Here's what happened when I quoted your quote:

It shows the last 4 quotes, instead of one on my screen... Shit

Wow. It shows 5 quotes on my IPad... I don't get it. Shocked

Funny thing is, it was working for about a few quotes there, only showing 1 quote... I don't know what happened. bwi

I will see what the other 2 admins see, and get back to you tomorrow. But it shows 4 quotes on the one sanket quoted... Mad

You are confusing me about the problem now. Anyways, as far as i am concerned there is no problem with your forum. You need to pinpoint me the exact problem with screenshots for me to better understand if you feel there is something that needs to be sorted/clarified Smile

I am sorry I was getting regular quotes and multi-quotes mixed up. You are posting about regular quotes.

Ya I will. Let's hope its just me. Smile
Thanks fr your help, and if it continues, i will get the other admin to give you a screenshot of the problem, since I won't be near a computer for another 10 days since I'm on holidays. Thanks for your help. Smile
