269miles Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Can anyone help me out ? I've been using JKB for years but noticed recently that I can't "quote" or "multiquote" to a post when uing Chrome. I've just installed Mozilla and I have exactly the same problem. I can reply to a post in either browser so why can't I "quote" ? Also in using Chrome in the past I can reply to a thread - or so it seem but when I try to post my comments it doesn't work. This has happened many times. Any suggestions ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

269miles Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Dokratr0 Yes , I am . And it still doesn't work, not even in Mozillla. Even in "reply to this topic" the "pot" option doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Have had the same problem with quoting posts for a couple of months. The suggested fix doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GhostHunter Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I've been working with a few of you to fix this, but as of now, I cannot replicate the issue using any browser across any system. It's frustrating because I have no idea what's causing it, there's no common factor in any of it ... Quick question though - can you all see the Quote button beside the multi quote button on each post ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GhostHunter Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Yes! What happens when you press it ? It should put text in the fast reply box... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis Albert Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 For me it puts text in the "Reply to this topic" box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GhostHunter Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 For me it puts text in the "Reply to this topic" box. Okay - does it look this [quote name='Francis Albert' timestamp='1409068734' post='4397883'] For me it puts text in the "Reply to this topic" box. [/quote] Also,at the top of the fast reply box, top left beside your avatar, there's a little white box with a black "hook" like thing in it - try clicking that, then trying to post the reply.

Francis Albert Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 What "fast reply box"? All I get when pressing "Quote" is a blank "Reply to this topic" box. The fast reply box seems to have disappeared altogether! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ha! No idea what I did but whatever it was it seems to have worked. Was it the "Toggle editing mode" thingy that you were talking about - pressing this seems to have solved the Quote problem and an annoyingly slow spell check type operation I've been suffering from.

Guest GhostHunter Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Do you see the Reply to this topic box at the bottom of the page ? If you do, click in it then follow the instructions above (box top left beside avatar)... If not - please post a screenshot so that I can try to figure out what's wrong.

Ricardo Quaresma Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Always suspected it was ghostery or poss ABP If GoogleApis is blocked in ghostery, it removes the NavBar, as it utilises that (ABP will do the same) ETA: wahey, 1000 posts; what's the prize?

269miles Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Also,at the top of the fast reply box, top left beside your avatar, there's a little white box with a black "hook" like thing in it - try clicking that, then trying to post the reply. "Reply to this topic" has an avatar - but there is no other info displayed and there is no other box / white box beside it. Also there is no option to put emotions into the reply. Is this correct ? Something else Dex - this is FI only , Im not asking you to look at this but.... Today - not for the first time - I tried to log in at work and didn't even get a web page . It failed saying web page not available. This has happened numerous times. This is on a different laptop from what I'm currently using. I could access any other web page as per usual but for some weird reason , not Kickback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All roads lead to Gorgie Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I had the problem with internet explorer and found ( on the laptop that is) if I right clicked on quote and then clicked open it worked.

Carl Spackler Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 If it helps I can tell you that quoting works in Chrome for me but it doesn't work in IE11 (Windows 7). I'm in Chrome now but the cursor and typing is very jumpy/delayed. This is a new thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
