Q: Should I use quickset for putting tile on my greenboard shower stall, or should I use some kind of glue or caulk?

A: If you want those tiles to be there next year and you don't want to deal with the likelihood of tearing out the shower to repair dry rot in the not-too-distant future, I strongly urge you to consider a traditional mortar and wire application in a shower. Even if you have to pay a pro to do it, you'll save time and money in the long run.
