Quote one more post. Look below it, and you'll be given the option of clearing out the other posts. Then back out. Done.

I am feeling a bit stupid. I have quoted 5 posts, then another, and another, and another and I don't see anything.

Can you post a screenshot of what is meant to happen?

I'm being dim, but I don't understand what you're asking. How to use multi-quote? What happens when you don't clear out multi-quotes? Where to click to clear them out?

I don't see anywhere to click to clear them out. I click on a second, third, ... multi-quote, and I don't see any option to clear out the other multi-quotes.

Pick a random post in a different thread and quote it. Look below the dialogue box and there will be an option to deselect the multi-quotes.

Got it. Thank you. Neat that you can use multi-quotes across threads.

Now the problem will be remembering this.

Comes in very handy when responding to posts where the information is spread across 3 or more threads in different forums.

That one. That was the original question, and what I was trying to replicate.

Ok, tried multi-quote additional quotes in another thread. Still don't see anyway of clearing them. Is the option microscopic? Which dialogue box?

Good to know you can multi-quote across threads.

Pick a random post in a different thread and quote it. You'll get a dialogue box with the quoted post in which to write your "response". Look immediately below and to the left of the dialogue box and see the option to clear out the multi-quotes.

Got it, thanks.

I actually have to quote all the multi-quote posts. I thought that if I went through and marked all the multi-quote posts I wanted, then changed my mind about posting, then an option would be there to unselect them all. Just have to go back and manually uncheck them.

If I multi-quote in a single thread, there is still no way to clear them. Quoting them into the reply box, but then not posting it, does not clear those marked multi-quote posts. Still have to go through and manually uncheck each one.

No, but you're missing a key element: quote a post from a different thread, and then you can clear them out in one fell swoop.
