First crack at a new quote feature - please check it out

[JustineMumsnet]

Hi all,
We've released a new quote feature (finally you might say). I've attached some screenshots to show you where it's housed on site. Please give it a go so we can check it's working ok for all and across devices. We've taken the decision not to include threading for now - both because it would have been a lot more dev time and because it can affect the flow of conversations but this is something we can revisit in time if folks prefer. Please do let us know what you think/ further improvements etc. Big thanks.

@poozel

No option to quote on app on iPad

I'm using ipad but with desktop site and Safari.

Thanks @JustineMumsnet and tech

Just testing binary

Please no like button! We're not teenagers! Instagram/facebook et al calls if you want that...or that other "lovely site" people keep talking about. I hear they have all the fancy buttons. We like old school with new-old features, let's dare to remain different

Awww but sometimes someone writes a post and you want to cheer (or throw tomatoes).

@Pelleas

Lesser known emoji test!

two can play at this game

Like this you mean?

Aw, and I can't even replicate your Tardis, Binary, because it quotes a quote.

Testing the emojis is very important.

@00100001

oh, *@WorraLiberty*

That's interesting, the formatting messes up in the quote!

Good spot! I hadn't noticed that.

Has it worked?

Yay!

I feel v ungrateful but a snip button would be great! Surely we can trust people not to conveniently edit quoted posts.... right?! I didn't particularly want to quote Lordfrontpaw but just had to quote something to try it out!!

Oi - I'm bloody Shakespeare you know! Very quote-worthy...

It’s completely mad you can’t quote a post that already has a quote in it! Surely you just quote the response? Every forum I’ve ever used works that way! It still makes it a million times easier to follow who is replying to who etc.

@Tech

Hi MrsWooster, it should in theory be restricted to single-level quotes. We'll check what's going on there as it seems someone has quoted a message with a quote.

Seems to work for a mid-thread post?

Testing testing :D

NRTFT so forgive me if I've missed anything vital :-)

Proper confusing in the watch list though, if you're a bit fick like me

I'm on a laptop on some old explorer version. Works fine, but you do need to be able to just quote a bit not the whole lot. Otherwise it won't really be useful.

Oh my fucking God 🤦‍♀️😂

Is this going to be released to everyone or just premium? And when will it be rolled out?

@Veronicat

What’s so funny?

I’ve never worked out how you get those
