I am still fairly new here, and I am a bit embarrassed to ask a question that is probably quite obvious!

I have seen other users, when writing reviews, who can include quotes from the person's work who they are reviewing.
What I mean by this is that they haven't just copied and pasted the part they are reviewing about, but there is a box with the quote inside?

I hope this makes sense, it does in my head anyway- help would be much appreciated! :smt003

The easiest way is simply to write out:

Code: Select all
[quote]the text here[/quote]


That'll make it look like

A good way to find this and lots of other codes is to check out the Big Book of YWS Codes: The Big Book of YWS Codes (still haven't mastered the whole link idea where it comes up with just the title)

Well, what do you know! It came up with just the title!
