Is it possible to quote multiple posts in a posting like at the old WSI? I did not see a button for that.

I will look into it.

Okay this is how to do that.

Click on the quote button at the bottom of each post you want to quote then click on the "post reply" button at the top right or bottom left of the thread you are replying in. That will add all the quotes to the reply box and you can reply from there. For now I've set the limit to 5 posts quoted. I'm not sure this works for posts you want to quote on separate pages of the thread.

If you click n the arrow beside your name you will see an option to go to your profile. From there you can edit your signature and email notifications among other things including your timezone preference. Font sizes and other options can be controlled when making a post. There is even a dictionary option available now.

If you have questions post them in this thread. That way everyone can benefit from the answers.

How to put an image in your signature:

For some reason I can't figure this out, I was able to upload and save my image but keeps showing up as a post in albums. Not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong. Not a big deal, feel kind of dumb.

once you have the URL for your sig image, input the following code [img ]URL[ /img] (without the extra spaces.

It should appear.

Can we get the [YOUTUBE][/YOUTUBE] or embed vid code here? The vid embed tool is just a link for me on a YouTube vid. Nice feature to be able to embed. Can I ask if that affects the server side at all?

I don't know. I will look into it. It was a late addition and I'm not sure if it was a West hack.

Apparently the "insert video" code works as a substitute for that. It supports Youtube and other forumats.

Got it, had to use the full form url and I was using the tiny link.

I went to Edit Settings under my profile page, but I didn’t see where I could add a signature.

After you're in Edit Settings go to "Account" bar and look for the signature info in red. Took me what seemed like several hours to figure it out>
