That was set, but under Admin - Control panel - Display options - Post/Reply Page - Options Maximum number of nested quotes in a post: was blank, set to 4 and now it is working.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction smile

I did not check where that value is stored but it is probably in config.inc.php.
So if it got corrupted you may find other settings not correct.

There has been a longstanding bug, where ubbthreads.inc.php ( lock_and_write function ) could write out a blank file for config.inc.php, as well as other files being 'edited'.

I mentioned this about 2 to 3 yrs ago and even posted a fix for it.

It never got implemented.

It has been implemented in the upcoming 7.6, however

Note to myself:
Hidden changelog tidbit. wink

Which BTW deserves a mention in the changelog. Since it is IMO a critical fix to the 7.x series.
To often this has happened to users in the past with no clue that the file was basically erased.
