I just noticed it when I tried to quote someone who's got previous quotes in their posts, that only the last part is recognized by vB.

I'd refer you guys to this thread:

Look at the post made by Tubedogg where he says:

[...snip]
That's cause you got it set wrong. Double-click on someone's name in the contact list, then click Msg Mode (right near where it says History, above the message box). Select Split Message Mode instead of Single Message Mode. That'll make it work like AIM.
[snip...]

Try "quoting" that and see for yourself.

I noticed this the other day too...I know that the system strips out previous quotes but I don't think it should strip everything...

Moving to bugs...

A couple of features I think would be nice:

1) lets you select whether or not to include "previous" quotes in the quote reply. (in case the person you're quoting is also quoting someone else).

2) if user uses #1, allow server to shorten the previous quotes so it doesn't become too big of a post.

newreply.php:


$pagetext = preg_replace("/(\[quote])(.*)(\[\/quote])/siU", "", $pagetext);
All you have to do is add the U that's in bold.

I have applied the fix here too for testing.
