Is there a way to add a quote when editing a post?

Yeah, this is a question about the forum, not the game

Situation: I'm editing a post of mine because I don't want to double post, but I want to quote someone else. Is there a way to do that? I haven't found it 🤔 Everything I try just creates a new post instead.

So..idk if there´s another way but you can simply "quote" something and than copy it (from the new post)-> go to edit -> paste it in your previous post and it should work
(that´s how I just did it at least ^^)

So if you want to quote two people, you can use the + button next to the quote one, to do multiquotes. Otherwise, in the midst of typing the post just hit quote on the next post

Like I did just then.

Unsure if mobile works different for that 2nd one, too lazy to check, so YMMV.

Weird, that's what I was trying, it doesn't let me select and copy the "new post". The mulltiquote options goes to a new post too, not the one I'm editing.
Oh well, it seems it's something on my end since you can both do it, I'll try with different configurations then. Thanks guys.

It doesnt let me to select quotes from new posts either. I've been using a workaround:

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

1. You can drag and drop quote blocks. 

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

2. Place quote block between to two lines.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

3. Drag select from the first to the second line including the block between.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

4. Copy & Paste where needed.

That has worked indeed! 🎉
