When I quote a post, my reply appears as a continuation of the quoted portion. The quote doesn't appear in a gray box above my comment. I'll quote this message in a second post to display an example. What am I doing wrong?

The solution was to uncheck "Show WYSIWYG" editor.

the </ blockquote> is only shown when there is multiple quotes and is only shown "inside" the
