Thanks, that doesn't seem to work on a real computer but in the process I discovered that the equivalent is to mark a block of text in someone's post, upon which a "Reply" tab appears by it to click on. Doing this again (on the same or other!) posts adds multiple quote boxes within the same reply post, with the selected text already in them. This would not have been obvious to me.
- Another great feature seems to be that you can now quote several people at the same times in one post by first creating your post reply box and then select whom you want to quote by holding finger/mouse over any part of someone’s post until a ‘reply prompt’ appears - click that and it automatically creates a quote box by that person in your new post and you can then copy and paste in however much of their post you want straight into the quote box in your reply box and so on for multiply quotes.
I would be for it after having a play around, but think a size limit would be good If that is possible?....can also add them to a signature - don’t know if that is intended or not?

If you want to split their posts and quote a section at a time, just create a new quote box each time in exactly the same way,
OK - great - this is actually working for me and answers my question on multiquoting in the snag threads.Doing this again (on the same or other!) posts adds multiple quote boxes within the same reply post, with the selected text already in them.
Dag nabbit !SHARE A POST IN ANOTHER THREAD
This one is also really helpful. To post a link in another thread from a post elsewhere use the ‘share icon’ in the menu bar (the share icon only appears in a post thats already been uploaded so if you are intending to duplicate post, upload your initial post first). Click the share icon in the top right of the post you want to share. Go to the thread you want to link the post in, create a new reply dialogue box, then press ‘paste’. So now I have created a post to post link with the snagging thread. It’s that easy and instead of posting just a page link, it takes you straight to the actual post I want to link to.

Where's the start button !?!Looks like you can do gifs, here’s my test....
Ah guess there is some “subject to device” compatibility then 😕 guess the Crow in my signature is static for you too? ☹️ They just move without intervention for me on an iPad.Where's the start button !?!
It's just a pic for me ...... 😢

If I click on your name and go to the 'about' tab of your profile - I can see your signature there and I can see the crow having a good old squawk (if that's the technical birding term !)Ah guess there is some “subject to device” compatibility then 😕 guess the Crow in my signature is static for you too? ☹️ They just move without intervention for me on an iPad.
Interesting you can see my little Crow there - he should appear at the end of each post I make, as you can imagine (or have to imagine, as the case may be.....hopefully that is only the case currently though 😊)If I click on your name and go to the 'about' tab of your profile - I can see your signature there and I can see the crow having a good old squawk (if that's the technical birding term !)
However - if your signature is meant to appear under your posts - then I'm not seeing it at all.
I also didn't see any movement in the gif Deb briefly posted either.
