Sorry if this has been asked before, searched all over and found nothing regarding this…

Users are complaining about the quotes not working like they work in, say, phpBB. I have forum version 2.1.0 installed.

So, while this works


[quote author="Author Name" date=""]Lorem ipsum[/quote]

this does not!


[quote author="Author Name"]Lorem ipsum[/quote]

Is there a way to fix/hack this so that the date attribute would not be required, and make quotes work with or without the date? Now all I get without the date attribute is a broken quote like

[quote author=“Author Name”]Lorem ipsum

pmCode, it is true, behaves slightly different from bb code. This one such difference, it seems. May I suggest a feature request to change that? I can move this thread there, if you want me to.

Sure thing!

Guess they will have to live with this for now… it’s not much of a bug, but still a bit annoying.
