Total genius, I never would’ve figured that out alone. Though it doesn’t seem to like me quoting whole posts…hmmmm
Highlighting it worked for me?
Alternatively, if you reply to a specific post (using the reply arrow at the bottom right of the individual post itself) you can simply press the speech bubble icon in the formatting bar and that will paste in the full ‘original’ comment as a quote.
Ah, it must be an issue with Android phones - when I do that via either method the quoted section gets “automatically removed by the system editor” I have to delete some of the quote to get it to go through. I’m glad it’s not me being totally useless
That’s interesting. I’ve not come across that yet, and I’m on the phone version too (Honor 9/Android 9/Chrome).
Can you manually insert the missing text back in the right place between the quote tags on a second pass?
<waves wand>
Ooooh, MAGIC!

I thought it might be a nice idea to have a place to practice using all the new features somewhere safe away from the main boards.
Great idea @Ian_Chimp
Summary
Trying out a few features
This text is blurred or is it?
It seems that a post can be ‘liked’, but not a reply. Is that right? Or does the heart symbol just not appear for whoever wrote the reply / original post?
@Ned_Kelly3 That poor hamster
wanna no if this is right and will do something or if I'm doing it wrong
While I’m here how come your profile states that you have been a new member since 29th July. So you wouldn’t have had a first day limit ?
Um, yes, well, about that…
I may or may not have accidentally stumbled across the new forum before it was live.
It didn’t work when I first tried today after my first 24 hours.
Curious. I suppose we’ll see if you or anyone else has any more problems with it, and hopefully we can spot a pattern.

Haha, I was wondering how you’d become a super genius so quickly
Knew it. Undercover secret agent
Cassii has just ‘liked’ my reply to Ian Chimp… hmmm… not sure how it works (this isn’t a new experience…)
Every post/message has a heart on it. You can ‘like’ (and unlike) any message, except your own.
Oi! That means I’m thick too. Of course, it makes sense that people can’t ‘like’ their own posts. Bit of a steep learning curve for lots of us Lovehoney folk today!
It’s absolutely fine to make mistakes and learn as you go, so don’t worry about it.
As long as you can read and post then that’s the main thing.
You’re definitely adapting to the new forum faster than me, to be fair I’m smart with some stuff like sciences but am terrible with technology
Is there any feature you’re particularly interested in? I can try and talk you through it if you’re having problems.
And don’t forget this topic is specifically for practicing without effing anything up.
how do you do the blurred thing? i can’t fibd that though i am literally just trying every button currently
The Blur Spoiler feature is in the cogwheel icon on the right of the formatting bar. And you’ll find Hide Details and Build Poll in there too.
