Multiple character quotes
Saturday 29th August 2009 --- Category: Site Information ![]() It is now possible to add quotes from multiple characters. When submitting quotes from multiple characters, separate the names of the characters with a comma, for example, Jack,Locke. Searching for quotes by a specific character will also return quotes by multiple characters, if the character you're searching for is in that quote; for example, a quote by Jack and Locke will be found if you search for just Jack or Locke on their own. Please contact me with any ideas or issues you have with the changes, using the feedback, report or contact pages. |

A short guide to lost-quotes.com

You can see the character, episode number, episode name, the quote itself, the number of times it has been loaded and, if the quote is short enough, a link to post the quote directly to Twitter. There is also a basic search feature for the quotes page. You can choose to filter quotes by character or season, order them by character, episode number episode name, quote, or times loaded, in ascending or descending order. You can also choose to search for a particular word or phrase to narrow your search. Submit The submit page allows you to submit a quote to the database. Only the quote is required, however the character, episode number and episode name is useful to add if applicable. Quotes are then added to the moderation queue. Below the submission form there is a list of the last 10 approved or rejected submissions made; pending submissions are not shown. If your quote is approved, it will be added to the quotes list to be used in the random quote generator signature image.
