When I click the ‘quote’ button at the bottom of a message I get the whole message quoted.

I have tried selecting just the part I want from the original message and then clicking ‘quote’ but I still get the whole message.

I have also tried selecting the part I want from the quoted message and clicking the ‘quote’ tab in the ‘barcodes’ menu. No joy.

Have also searched the FAQ and the whole website for instructions on how to quote only part of a message. I can see that others have figured it out, which is annoying me. Please put me out of my misery and tell me how to do it.

Like this? There are probably a few methods.Click quote button first. I left click where I want to start and then use the
backspace bar until I leave what I want to leave. Hit preview below to double check.

@londongirl
you have to put [quote (but with a closing bracket) before your quote
I can’t put it all in one post, or it will turn into a quote!

so [quote then put/paste your quote here then [/quote but with closing brackets

hope that makes sense ?

Yes

So :

1. Copy what you want to quote
2.Hit reply
3. Hit the quote bubble above (above the ‘blush’ emotive)
4.Paste your words in between start quote and end quote

ps if this is fiddly on a ipad, then type the quote codes manually as previously mentioned
