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.

I wonder if it breaks with other formatting tags

In true binary fashion...it will be broken or it won't be.

SoupDragon? Is that really you?

It is indeed. :) I see they've had to drag you out of the cupboard and dust you down. Are the youngsters not up to it?

I would have "quoted" you properly but you quoted me first. Dammit.

Haha, the youngsters are a good bunch - they can run rings round me and my ageing brain. I'm just helping out a bit. I do however reserve the right to look at stuff and shake my head saying "Nah this is all wrong. It'll have to come out" in the style of a visiting plumber.

OMG - OriginalTech! I thought we'd driven you away years ago!

Is that Original @Tech? How lovely!

Can we expect to see @OliviaMumsnet and @HelenMumsnet turning up to do a bit of modding too?

Are you the Tech that lived in the shed?

@BoreOfWhabylon

I miss OliviaMumsnet on the Archers thread ...

Very posh

Hello Tech

Me too Perdita

I do think though that if someone posted a spoiler on the wrong board she'd suddenly apparate

@OneUsernameOnly

Ah is that what you mean by threading? Does that mean we can only quote the op? I am not sure what the point of that is

Simples

Is that Tech who was let out of the shed and escaped to New York or somewhere?

I remember you as being one of the young whippersnappers!

now I feel old...

I forgot to test out the quote feature.

Testing on iPad.

I can quote any post apart from a post which Includes a quote in it.

Lol, read the OP...and the dozens of identical posts

@00100001

I don't like people.

Can you make up posts? What does this look like? In the app I can't see quotes, it's just all code.

(Just showing hopefully what quotes look like on my app, I would post a screenshot but it crashes every time I try to post a picture)

Ohh took me an embarrassing 5 minutes to learn how but I think I’ve got it now. Looks really good too.

Not possible on the iPhone app?
