I think I understand what you mean William - you want to do this?

 

thanks but I click that...

 

Insert something here commenting on the first half of your sentence...

 

and it only says "quote" it doesn't say who by.

 

And then finish off here?

 

 

 

There's no automatic way of doing that I'm afraid. You have to Quote the original post, then by copying and pasting (Ctrl C and Ctrl V) produce multiples of the same Quoted post. Then edit those multiple Quoted posts to chop them up.

You mean like the following then?

 

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Code in the box at the bottom looks like the following examples

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

hello

 

Some generic content here

Quoted post content here

[quote ] hello [/quote]
[quote]Some generic content here[/quote][quote name='Username' date='Jun 30 2008, 10:39 AM' post='1735291']Quoted post content here[/quote]

I cut and pasted your post more than once and edited the content to fit as Shuggee did.

Still seems to be very broken.

The weather feed to my website is also broken.

can I ask that there be a glossary for updated abbreviations?

 

last winter in particular with the increased interest in SSW Sudden stratospheric warming,the letters being added into posts got overwhelming.

 

with more advances,theories and such,if you cant read up regularly ,its easy to get lost.

 

Also,and I think its brilliant, that regular posters respond to each others posts with real names as opposed to forum ids.

It can however get a smidge confusing,so if your ok with your real name being used in a public forum,perhaps an aka after your id?

 

Thanks and keep up the good work :)

welcome starstream, re the accronyms, yes it can be very confusing. If you go to the Guides section there is a list of them in there which you may find useful along with lots of other interesting articles and help in understanding most features of the weather.

It was only the Shannon radar site which was updating every 15 minutes, the rest were at 5 mins, but that was upgraded last year so all of Ireland now has 5 min updates :)
