Quotes from inside and outside the topic render differently

[Stephen]

Those quotes come from two different topic IDs, 10206 and 10188. Is the behavior related to when a quote crosses a topic boundary?

This topic

On my site, a user has quoted another several times in one post, but the quoted user’s name only appears on the first quote, with the title of the quoted topic appearing in other instances:

I forgot to mention this! Yes, the editor preview shows the username, as I’d expect, but it is then rendered differently once posted.

No, the category that all these topics (and posts) were in had ‘everyone: create/reply/see’ permission.

A different topic:

Advice needed for tailoring Discourse to my organisation

At the moment we have 220 branches. This figure is not likely to change more than 10 in either direction. We’re an established organisation. We have 17 regions. Again, this is not likely to change.

Yep, that’s what’s happening, I understand now - I don’t think I’ve seen the same user quoted side-by-side between topics like that. Is that a bug though? Arguably different quote styles between the two make sense. It’s actually useful to know that it’s being quoted from outside the topic. It would be really easy to abuse the context of posts if they were taken between topics with no indicator.

The preview is a problem for sure, if we’re being picky.
