Can you please consider adding the “Post Quick Reply” box to the top of the pages also when it is at the bottom of the page so we don’t have to scroll all the way down? If it could also be added to the “Reply” pull down along with “Reply as Topic” when applicable? Thanks in advance!

Why would you want to quick reply without reading the rest of the comments?

@dangeRuss I sort the “San Diego Radio & TV - Contests & Sweepstakes” forum by “Newest to Oldest” AND I use “Infinite Scroll” in my user settings so when I go into the forum I see the most recent post on top, then I want to post an unrelated item by scrolling a long ways to the bottom of the forum to get to the “Post Quick Reply” box. Maybe I should just use the “Reply” button at the top of the forum but I may not know the difference between the two ways. If they are the same, it is my misunderstanding … I was thinking “Post Quick Reply” at the bottom was a less formal way to enter a post.
My Settings “Paginate topics and posts instead of using infinite scroll” is un-checked.
Please note that I am new to this forum so my issues are probably user errors, for instance, I didn’t hit the reply button under your question so my reply isn’t nested under yours and doesn’t look related to it. darn it

@dangeRuss I remember why I stopped using the “Reply” button on top when I was writing an unrelated item … it was because when I hit “Reply” the box automatically populated with text. If I hit “discard” then hit “Reply” again the box does not get populated with text. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?.
Also, can you please send me a link that teaches me the difference between a Topic and a Post?
Sorry that I am a newbie …

If you have text selected with your mouse and hit reply, it automatically quotes it for you.

A topic is a thread, a post is a message.

If you have text selected with your mouse and hit reply, it automatically quotes it for you.
Also, if you already have the text editor box open in another tab (e.g., to create a new thread, quote, or reply) and then open the text editor in a second tab, the box in the second tab will auto-populate with the contents of the the text editor in first tab.
