How do I combine my similar themed posts into one?
Hmm, not sure what you mean, but if you want to merge several posts into one, you can't really, unless you just copy them all in one new post.
Thats what I assumed but thought maybe there was a different approach.
Hope your well Gugi and thanks.
No worries, may be one day you will grow up to become forum admin and then you could do tricks like that :)
But fireman definitely sounds more fun, or jedi :)
LMAO! Jedi I am , Know this you did not -Yoda voice
I post a reply in the first post, leave that window open and open another window. This takes me to the SAME post at the point of composing the reply. I then hit the Back button, which takes me to the forum page I was at before hitting the Reply button to post the first reply. I then browse the forum, and when I find ANOTHER post I want to reply to, I hit the Reply button, compose the reply, select it, cut it (Ctrl+X), Cancel posting the reply, go to the FIRST reply window, and paste it (Ctrl+V). I continue doing this until I no longer find a bunch of posts I want to reply to. This keeps the forum nice and neat. Of course, sometimes in my haste I forget and then go back and combine them later, essentially using the same method, but in a long winded way.
I think maybe this is what you're asking, if not, and you actually want to combine various posts, again, it's pretty similar. You'll find a 'Delete Post' option to delete the post after it's been posted. However, I don't think you can delete a post if it's been replied to or possible after a certain time has passed, I can't remember off the top of my head....
Carlmaloschneider - If you're not familiar with the multi-quote button, you might find that easier... It is the one in the lower-right (next to reply with quote). Click that on every post you want to quote (including the last one) and then click the "reply with quote" on the last one.
The ability to delete a post goes away after time.
Well now at least now, you feel how you look mate...:p

You could even combine all your similarly themed posts into your blog.
James.
Yes, I know.
James.
No. Of course not. I just was walking down the street and saw this guy and asked if he'd pose at my place for a photo for straight razor place dot com.
He said yes, and we got talking and after a 'cup of tea', well, one thing led to the other, and now we want you to all fund our in vitro fertilisation program...
Oh, before you ask, yes, the foetus will gestate in a box...
Of COURSE it's my actual head!!!!
That does it! I'm changing my picture! Maybe a little kitten, or puppy?
Carl, I've been away from this site for too long. I'm glad to see you are still here and still attracting humor like, well, like an unflattering metaphor involving flies.
And Ooh, what a big post count you have! Congrats on that!
Hi, yeah, haven't seen you here for what seems like AGES!
Yes, I have got a big post count, it's indicative of a rather boring life, a tendency to waffle, the fact I imbibe in a beer or two at night while posting my SOTD and browsing the forums (which lubricates the cogs and wheels that relate to posting mechanisms) and a rather obsessive nature!
Good to see you back!!
I haven't laughed this hard since...Well, since Carl's previous thread...:):p

The biggest one is still running the whole damn country...Where'd she come from again?!...Oops that's right...Wales :p. See! I can even poke fun at my own expense. :)
