Have tried using the quote facility but am getting a message about ‘body of text x characters short’ or something similar. What does this mean? Am on various other forums and not encountered this before - obviously user error

Once you have hit "quote" you will see the quoted text in a box and you need to type a few words below that box, like I have here.
