Do me. Tee hee.

[Kori Ellis]

To tag someone in a post, put "@" and then their user name (no space).

It will send a notification to them (like a PM notification) so they know next time they are online that you are talking to/about them.

When you do it, it shows up as bold (like the names in my above posts) without the @

Thanks :)

lol I was going to try so and so but then I wanted to make sure and quoted one of your posts and it used the mention tag, so I wanted to wait to see if it was easier. timvp I guess I need something after it, for it to work

ah when I had the mention tag in brackets talking about that is how it appeared when I quoted one of Kori's original tests to see what tags and/or symbol was used. But I never closed the original mention tag even though I wasn't trying to use it as a code, it messed up the following mention tag I wanted

[timvp]

SpursTalk now has the option to "tag" other users. Simply put @ and then their username. The result will be a bolded username that links to their profile. That user will receive a notification that you tagged them and they will be linked to the post. This should be useful in terms of helping the flow of conversations.

Another feature that was added: You now get a notification when someone quote's your post. IMO, this has been needed for a long time. If someone quotes your post, you should be notified so you can respond. Now you are :tu




P.S.

If you want to turn off either of those notifications for whatever reason, you have that option in your control panel.

Kori Ellis, is this working even with usernames with a space?

does the @ have to be used at the beginning of a statement or anywhere in the sentence?

[timvp]

It can be used anywhere, ace3g.

Question, if you quote someone that has bolded a name and post. Does the bolded name get another message? would get kind of tedious tbh

[DAF86]

He redeemed himself though.

Awesome. I have been wanting that on this site ever since they added the same function at one of the boards I frequently go to.

Makes for a quicker way to response to an specific poster without having to go through 5 pages of banters.

I don't know. This is just an add-on function that we bought separately and this is how it works.
