Recently the quote feature has stopped working for me. If I press the reply button the three scrolling bars do pop up for a few seconds, then vanish, but no text is added to the reply box. The other features such as 'like' seem to work fine. IE11. If I open chrome it works fine. Is there a known issue with IE11 or could it be something on my end? Not too concerned since I found the Chrome work around but just thought I'd mention it.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. It's not working for me in IE11 (W8.1) either all of a sudden, and I have my options set to download updates automatically. I'll write to the developer, but in my experience, every time something stopped working from a browser that was working before, it always pointed back to the browser. The last time this happened was with the Upload a File option in Firefox (which I use the most). It was working fine for a couple of years on this new platform, then all of a sudden it stopped. It just started working again about a couple of months ago after being out of commission for several months.
 
In the meantime, all of you using IE11 can use the Tags with the member's screen name to identify the quote, like this (but without the extra spacing, so tighten up around the brackets.

I had this the other day. I think if you change to HTML Editing and then click quote again the quote text pops up. You can then click back to Rich Text Editing. I will check it out and confirm today

Sorry, forgot about this.

The temporary fix is:

1. Click on the AA symbol top right of the Post Reply box.
2. Click on the 'Reply' text in the post you wish to quote.
3. Click on the 'Use Rich Text Editor' text under the Post Reply box to return to normal use.

Cheers,

Paul
