How to reply to a reply

I can not find out how to quote a reply when I reply to a reply.  Moreover, my reply does not show up below the reply that I am replying to.  So the reader does not know what my reply is all about.

    I'm still getting used to the replies and the quotes. It took me a sec to figure out that the Quote feature only appears when you're replying to a post. This means you can't include multiple quotes in one response, which isn't ideal.

    Since my response here is a reply, can you reply to it?

I see a reply button under my reply, so it looks like you can reply to a reply.

      TenOC Definitely not intuitive. You have to:

      • Navigate to the post you want to reply to
      • Click on the Reply button under that specific post
      • A Replying to window opens
      • This step is important. On top of the replying to window click on the quotation marks (")
      • The quoted text will now be in the reply box, but it is up top out of sight.
      • Scroll up in the window and you will see and be able to edit the content you are replying to.
