Hello.

Seeing it in my forum and also here. When quoting while replying, somehow the "styling" is gone. I mean everything is with white background and you can't easily understand what-is-what.

Any ideas how to fix this ?

Thanks

(the saved quoted post shows ok when viewed. it is only during the answering/quoting that shows the above problem)

We're planning to use bbCodes like

....
in future releases. Currently it adds  <blockquote> HTML tag so you only see a tabbed text, there is no borders and wrapper indicators.

No need BB-code, just find in file class-template.php

'toolbar4' => ''

and replace it with

'toolbar4' => '',
'content_style'=> 'blockquote { border: #999999 1px dotted; background: #E6E6E6; }'

2 times.

And test your editor for quote style.

Works great !! Thanks a lot. Appreciated.

Maybe wpForo could include that in the next update or something, so we don't have to edit files after updates.

Great idea. This is pretty much the standard for all forums. Glad to see the standards coming to wpforo. It shall make it easier for the wpforo developers in the long run as well. Also when I choose "Quote" on this forums and I start typing it puts my reply in the "Quote" as well. I had to choose source code in editor to remove my reply from the quote.
