Razzputon Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 I'm not sure if this is the proper thread for this but it's as close as I could find. I'm curious if I have missed a setting for the forums. I'm unable to paste to any post I make. Also, the quote button will not work for me either. Is there a trick to do this? Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on my work laptop using Firefox and I'm able to paste and use quote It has something to do with Windows 8 and Explorer. Oddly enough I hate them both.

I hate Win 8 so the first thing i did was get rid of it, even that was a mission but it's possible. Win 7 is a great OS and works, no silly tiles etc just a decent OS.

That will copy and paste the text but won't get the 'quote' button and other features working, personally i'd change OS but a different browser should also work :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVampire Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Are you using Firefox 30.0, the newest version? To updated, go to help > about Firefox. If you have the version of firefox with the square made of three slashes at the top right, hit ALT, and then help > about firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have put more info on the main thread Vamp =) As it turns out, the problem is with Windows Explorer on windows 8 operating system. When I use Crome or Firefox I'm able to use quotes and copy/paste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
