BTW, how do I quote a nested reply in this new forum? In the quote above it is not clear where my quote finishes and where cpradio’s starts. I quoted this by selecting the block of text and hitting reply.[/quote]
As far as I know, that’s still the best that Discourse can do.[/quote]
Bwahaha. Manual ftw.
bwahahahaa.

There are still only 2 indicators there. I get three (a green PM one).
The only third I ever see is over the hamburger (because I’m a Mod). And I’ve yet to ever get triple digits as I’ve done a good job of keeping up so far.
Isn’t the green in the lower corner? But yes, you are right, there are technically 3. No biggie. It was just a thought

I’ve tried this and been unable to get it to work for me. Although now I think about it, the post I was struggling with had two separate quoted areas, with text between them, and while I could get the first one to work, the second wouldn’t.
I did it by typing square brackets with the word quote. So I can nest as much as I want and I can get back to normal text by closing all the open quote bracket things.
How to do with with the button, I have noes ideas.
Yes, I saw that. I can’t honestly remember if I tried that. I do know I tried adding quote tags round the outer post, whilst using Markdown’s > for blockquoting within it, and that only worked for the first nested quote, not the second one.

Try that with quote tags:

Hmm…also doesn’t work.

Test with anony-mouse quote.
Indeed, it seems like a bug in the software… only ever expects a single child.
I lose track of which formatting bugs the Discourse team knows about… @cpradio - is this a known bug or not?
Only the first nested quote being parsed in a quote? No, I don’t think that is specifically mentioned. They do know about the lost of formatting in quotes, but I believe your above example should have worked.
I also believe there was some adjustments recently that may warrant trying this on Meta or Try
In fact, I’m going to test it on Try right now.

Here’s another (related?) issue:
If you quote (or link to) a post which begins with a quote, the opening quote is stripped, like this[quote=“TechnoBear, post:262, topic:741”]

[/quote]Is that by design, or also a 
?
I’ve tried various combinations of adding 2 spaces at the end and extra newlines but I’ve yet to identify a consistant work-around.
I think that is by design, for two reasons
OK - so that would explain why, if you quote a post which begins with a quote and includes multiple quotes, not of the (visible) quotes is formatted.[quote=“cpradio, post:246, topic:741”]
Yes, it will be. We have to keep in mind that Discourse is still in its infancy (to a degree). As they mature and gain a larger following, some of these “UI” issues will likely get addressed.
The Discourse team has done very well at identifying issues and helping get them resolved as our site begins to attract larger number of users and a larger dataset of topics/posts. One thing that is also in the works is changing how many of the templates are rendered and how the scripts get included. This may also give Android devices better performance.

Holy cow! You’re still alive! How’ve you been?!
Any chance of getting custom badges for contest wins, ie.The Hilarious Emoji Competition ???
Just a thought…
I need to think on this one. We run a lot of comps so it could get cumbersome. Give me a day or two.
Edit: You know what? Screw it. That’s a great idea. I’ll get it sorted next week.
