DCP 3.0 Forum Index - Quick Reference Guide

[JohnD 0]

I've put together a guide to help you find some of the new features of the site .... and familiarize you with some of the things you may have forgotten about.

We'll be putting together additional Quick Reference Guides like this for other major sections of the forum.

Hello DCP folks. I hope I am asking my question at the right place.

A lot of commenters post blue boxes that focus on the topic they want to comment on.

I would like to be able to do this well, but I don't know how to this.

Can you help?

I am guessing you are talking about how your post appears above here?

Go to the bottom right of the post that you want to "quote" and click "Reply". It will load a new post box with the other person's post already set up.

If there are multiple posts you would like to comment on, click "Multi-Quote" for each post you want to quote. Then, go to the bottom of the topic page and click the larger blue "Add Reply" button. This will load the post box with all the quoted topics separated out. You can type right in between each quoted post too and make it all one post. This is helpful so that you don't need to have 3 or 4 separate posts to comment on different people's posts.

Let us know if this helped/what you were looking for!

Hello,

There used to be a section in the settings area where you can turn off the signature banner. I wanted to recommend it to someone, but I cannot seem to find it anymore. Did you guys do away with this option when you upgraded to the current version of the forum software? Or is it hidden somewhere I haven't found?

Never mind, someone else found it!
