How to place a quote in a post

votes

I've seen several times in posting an answer where a portion of another answer was referenced. It appears in a beige shaded box. Am I missing how that is actually done somewhere because i can't figure it out. Help, please.

Thank you.

Ciao!!

Copy the portion of the person's post that you wish to quote.

Hit the " symbol at the top of your answer box.

A > will appear.

Paste the quoted text next to the >

Take a look below your text box and you will see, in blue, a draft of your own post.

You should now see that the quoted text....

appears in a beige shaded box.

Hit "answer" and your post will be published.
