Errors when quoting - robdrimmie - 08-05-2017 I'm unable to quote. User error a high possibility. I'm on OS X 10.12 (Sierra), using Chrome 49.0.3071.115 (the current build). When I click the "quote" button at the bottom of a quote, I see this in my console general.js?ver=1800:531 Uncaught ReferenceError: cookieSecureFlag is not defined at Object.set (general.js?ver=1800:531) at Object.multiQuote (thread.js?ver=1800:82) at and then when I click the "Quote these posts now" link in the reply textarea, I see the following error: VM1082:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input at JSON.parse ( at Function.m.parseJSON (jquery.js?ver=1800:5) at Object.multiQuotedLoaded (thread.js?ver=1800:116) at Object.complete (thread.js?ver=1800:99) at j (jquery.js?ver=1800:2) at Object.fireWith (jquery.js?ver=1800:2) at x (jquery.js?ver=1800:5) at XMLHttpRequest.b (jquery.js?ver=1800:5) Any suggestions for different ways to quote posts or things to try are very much appreciated. RE: Errors when quoting - Canard - 08-05-2017 Quoting has always been buggy for me, too - and had never worked on mobile. RE: Errors when quoting - clasher - 08-05-2017 I've never had it work for me either, but if I hit reply it'll get the post I wanna quote. RE: Errors when quoting - tomh009 - 08-05-2017 I never use the quote button. But trying it now, I don't even know what the difference is, the behaviour seems the same either way. To the original poster: if it doesn't work with just reply, can you try with Safari or Firefox? RE: Errors when quoting - jamincan - 08-05-2017 I think the intended behaviour is that when you toggle the quote button on a number of posts, when you finally hit a quote-reply button, it will open a reply with all of the posts you had toggled showing up as quotes in the reply. This is useful to avoid situations where one person replies several times in a row to different posts in the same thread; instead, they simply toggle the posts they wish to reply to, and then respond to them all in a single post. RE: Errors when quoting - timio - 08-05-2017 Firefox fails as well. RE: Errors when quoting - Elmira Guy - 08-05-2017 Quoting does not work on my Blackberry (yes, you heard me), but when I switch it to "desktop mode" then it works fine.

It's the multi-quote! But it doesn't seem to do anything for me anyway. (This is on Firefox.) RE: Errors when quoting - jamincan - 08-05-2017 For the record, it doesn't work for me in Chrome either, I'm just guessing that that is the intended behaviour. RE: Errors when quoting - Spokes - 08-05-2017 I think the quote feature is intended for quoting multiple posts. I should just remove it to be honest with you, it's buggy. Use the reply button. Does that work for everyone? RE: Errors when quoting - Canard - 08-05-2017 If it doesn't work it might not be a bad idea. What I usually do: I ⌘-click the "Reply" button below each post that I want to multi-quote... then scroll to the bottom of the original page, then flip to each new tab, Copy/Paste that text back into the original reply. Sounds tedious but I can fly through it really quick and it works well. I really wish it worked on Mobile, though - I'm a heavy mobile user of this forum and if I want to quote I have to switch to the Desktop version, grab the code, and try to wrestle with it that way. RE: Errors when quoting - Spokes - 08-05-2017 Mobile is a weakness in myBB. You need to use a third party plugin, which works, but is very simple. I was sold on myBB when the site first launched, but down the road a change could be in order. RE: Errors when quoting - tomh009 - 08-05-2017 Migration is always painful though ...
