How to insert multiple images or quotes in a reply

[Curious3456]

I was hoping someone could help me out! I'm trying to post multiple attachments in a post and it will only allow me to do one.....I choose the file and upload, then (as someone suggested) I select Choose file again and upload. All it does is replace the file I originally uploaded

I also have been trying to figure out how to reply to multiple people in one response. To reply to one person, I press "Quote" and then it pulls their comment down to the top of my reply. I see people that will reply to three or four different people in one post, though, and I can't figure out how to do that.

Any help would be most appreciated!!

I can't help you with the first, but I can with the second. To the right of the quote tab, there's another little button with quotation marks and an addition sign on it. For each message you want to respond to, press that button, and it will turn red. When you are finished selecting all messages, go to the bottom of the page and hit "post reply."

As an aside, the messages will be listed in the order in which you selected them.

For the multiple attachments.

Go to the manage attachment on the bottom of your screen.

Chose your image.

Upload.

Repeat until you have uploaded all the images. But you must upload each image.

Good luck.

The only way I know of to quote multiple people is to hit reply to quote the first person, then open another browser, go tot he same thread and copy paste the other people you want to quote.

I am sure there is a better way so I'll be staying tuned as well to see what others have to say.

Thank you so much! It worked!

So I upload one image fine, but when I go to upload another it swaps it with the original one I uploaded. I can never get more than one image uploaded.....do you know if there is a setting somewhere that enables this? I'm sure I'm missing something very simple, but it just isn't working

It sounds like you're uploading from an iPhone. If so, that's the problem. There's no way around it as far as I've found.

When I am uploading from my phone, I usually host the pictures on an external site - something like imgur - and post the links in my post.

When you're loading from a desktop, it's not a problem to upload multiple images, as long as they have different file names.

Good luck!

To quote multiple people in the same thread...use the " symbol at the bottom of the post. Then move to the next post and do the same. When you get to the last person, click the quote button.

I don't think there is a limit to the number of posts you can quote.
