    How to use Multi-Quote

    Unlike our old version which used a third party hack to add multi-quote with a separate button it is built in here but operates differently.

    You select the posts by clicking quote for each post you want to quote as you scroll through. Then click the "Post Reply (X)" button in the toolbar at the top to add them to your post.
    When you click "Post Reply (X)" it will populate your reply box with the posts you've selected as quotes.

    Yes, I discovered this myself. Why you need to scroll to the top and use that button is seriously non intuitive.

      The problem with the layout of this is two fold.

      1) The Post Reply (n) button is at the top of the page that you just scrolled to the bottom of while selecting messages to quote. I would suggest that the button be moved to the bottom left of the message list and be renamed to "Insert Quotes (n)", "Reply w/ Quotes (n)" or similar

      2) The Post Reply (n) button looks like the Post Reply button on the bottom right. The two should be labeled/colored differently.
