How to Customize the Order of Multi-Quotes on FlyerTalk and InsideFlyer

U sing the multi-quote feature on both FlyerTalk and InsideFlyer can be quite useful for responding to content from several fellow members without having to post multiple consecutive times, which can not only extend the length of a discussion; but doing it excessively can violate the rules, terms and conditions of the Internet bulletin board to which you are posting.

This article is a tutorial on how to customize the order of multi-quotes on FlyerTalk and InsideFlyer — and note that clicking on each screen shot will provide a larger version for easier viewing.

Multi-Quotes on FlyerTalk

Let us start with how to multi-quote content on FlyerTalk by following the set of instructions below in order.

1. Let us say that you want to quote what was posted as shown above — but in the order of #9 first; #7 second; and #8 third.

2. Follow the instructions in red as shown above:
   1. Click on the icon shown in the red square in #9; then
   2. Click on the icon shown in the red square in #7; then
   3. Click on the Quote button shown in the red rectangle in #8.

3. You will see the quotes added in the desired order. Now all you need to do is add content to respond to the quoted content…

4. …and the content which you input is shown highlighted in yellow — after which you can click on the Submit Reply button at the bottom of the dialog window.

5. The content which you quoted and posted is now available for all the world to see; and in your preferred order.

Multi-Quotes on InsideFlyer

While generally the same as FlyerTalk, there are a few things different about the multi-quote feature on the forums of InsideFlyer.

1. Let us say that you want to quote what was posted as shown above — but in the order of #5 first; #3 second; and #4 third.

• Follow the instructions in red as shown above:
  1. Click on the icon shown in the red rectangle in #5 — Message added to multi-quote will appear. at the top; then
  2. Click on the icon shown in the red rectangle in #3 — Message added to multi-quote will appear. at the top; then
  3. Click on the word Reply shown in the red rectangle in #4.

 

3. You will see only the quote added after you clicked on the word Reply…

 

4. …so click on the Insert Quotes button, which is highlighted in black as shown above.

 

5. You will see the quotes ready to be added; but not in the desired order…

 

6. …so you will manually need to cut and past the content in the desired order.

7. Once the quoted content is in the desired order…

 

8. …you can now add content to respond to the quoted content, highlighted in yellow as shown above; and then click on the Post Reply button highlighted in blue.

9. The content which you quoted and posted is now available for all the world to see; and in your preferred order.

Summary

You will hopefully find multi-quoting content from different members of either FlyerTalk or InsideFlyer into one reply useful.
