How to do I select and copy/foward multiple whatsapp/hike messages?

[Windows Central Question]

I'm using a lumia 535 now as my primary device after shifting from Android. My concern is, like Android, in WP is there any way to select and copy/forward multiple messages in Whatsapp/Hike in a single thread?

I know the way to do it in Messaging (Sms), but I can't seem to find a way to do the same in Whatsapp/Hike.

Please Help!
