What happened to the “quote whole post” button ? It suddenly disappeared. Most annoying.

There’s another topic with people complaining about it and a (broken?) theme component to add it back. [image] Full quote button in editor missing UX I’ve made another theme component to add back the composer button. It works like the original quote post button worked in …

There’s also this: [image] Quick Quote Theme Component Theme component information_source Summary Simply: it changes the behaviour of the Post Reply buttons (not Topic reply) to quote a Post automatically in a single click. hammer_and_wrench Repository Link…
