The ADV Multiquoter is a Greasemonkey script for Firefox that adds the option to quote from multiple posts. It’s as simple as picking the posts you want to quote, then clicking on a multiquote link when you’re ready to write your reply.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Pick Posts to Quote

step 1: pick

Step 2: Click on Multiquote Link

step 2: click

Step 3: Write Your Reply

step 3: quote

Sounds Great, How Do I Get It?

  1. The first requirement is Firefox.
  2. The second requirement is the Greasemonkey extension. To install it, click on the link, then click on the “Add to Firefox” button. A dialog box will appear. Read it, then click on “Install Now”. Restart Firefox when prompted.

Once you have Greasemonkey, you can install the script by clicking on this link:

A dialog box similar to the following will appear:

Read the dialog, then click on “Install”. That’s it.

Seems that the multi-quote doesn’t like the newer versions of FF. It hasn’t worked for me in several updates. running 3.5.7 now and nuthin.

@monkeyfez: Have you tried the most recent version of the Multiquoter script (version 1.2)?

Doh, looks like I forgot to update the version history on this page, but if you click the big “Install the ADV Multiquoter NOW!” link you will get the newest version.

Thanks for the heads-up!
