@elberet That’s not the problem I’m describing, I think…
What happens is that when you quote a post with two quotes in it, it gets messed up.
The first quote is completely removed. And the second quote is displayed as text.
[quote="GeertJohan, post:2, topic:26910"]
Okay, so how does that even work?
[quote="GeertJohan, post:1, topic:26910, full:true"]
Lets place a second line of text here so I can create an example.

Let's see..

But I expect this:
[quote="GeertJohan, post:2, topic:26910"]
[quote="GeertJohan, post:1, topic:26910"]
Lets say I have a post that quotes another post multiple times, quoting that post results in an error and markup code being displayed.

Hm, these are probably two distinct bugs. One: the parser doesn’t pick up nested quotes under certain circumstances, and two: the quote button in the editor toolbar omits part of the quoted message.
Specifically, a quick test on try shows that it only drops a quote if it is the first thing in the quoted message — which is most likely actually a feature because quoting quotes, especially starting a quotation with a nested quote, is mostly unwanted noise…
Hmm partially yes. But on the other hand: it should be up to the user to only quote what is required to create context. And deleting is much easier than adding, and less prone to errors… Its also a bit strange that the first quote isnt copied, but the second one is… They could both be important, but they could also both be noise…
