how to reply to others' comments on your own post

T

Hi all,

sorry for this annoying simple question, but I could not find a link button for replying to comments from others on my own post. Could anyone let me know?

Thanks!
Terry

erm, you just hit reply. or if you want to quote them, hit the quote button and then put your reply underneath.

Just click 'reply' button in the orange on the top right of your post. If you want to quote click the 'quote button'; I took a while to get the hang of that but eventually managed it. Then you need to click 'post' button in the orange strip of the reply section. You also haved to be signed in to post.

Hope that's the info you were looking for :-), but maybe I have just confused you more!

ok, thanks! (see if this reply to you works :) )

No it didn't work ;-) only joking (up)

Sorry - that probably confuses everything haha!

cool :), I guess I just need to track comments as soon as possible after they are posted so that i would know which user they were from.

Am I being dense, can you not see who the comments are from (1) on the main board with all the threads and (2) in the individual thread?

I'm tired, have just come home to a home pc not working (that's what happens when a 13 year old boy throws a bowl of water over another 13 year old boy but gets the keyboard instead :-s)

now it won't work for me! Use the quote button and type after the ']' bracket
