FN-GM Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Hi, Sorry for the life of me i cant remember what the feature is called when you talk to a user by doing @username Anyway for some reason it doesnt seem to work on this post. http://www.edugeek.net/forums/behind-red-door/76627-ffs-new-starter-decided-not-start.html#post682697 The link doesnt appear. Thanks
EduTech Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 All you have to do now is use @ and then the username joined together. James. Example: @EduTech
SYNACK Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 I have had this too, it works on some posts but not on others.

Domino Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 It's in BTRD, maybe that is something to do with it? as mentions appear on your profile it might be an idea to have it disabled in there.
EduTech Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 I know how to work it but it doesnt seem to work on this post My bad mate, half asleep I get what you mean know. I do imagine it is because it is "Behind the Red Door" as it is also not indexed by google the same applies where you can't tag specific members. James. *Sorry, what domino said.
SYNACK Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 How about this post http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/76863-bbc-click-can-15-computer-solve-programming-gap-2.html#post685555 can anyone point out where I got it wrong or is it a fault?
elsiegee40 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 It seems to work as long as a space follows the username. If there is any other character following the username, such as a full stop or bracket it doesn't work (@SYNACK)
FN-GM Posted June 7, 2011 Author Posted June 7, 2011 Here is another example where it doesnt work http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/76952-who-will-first.html#post685738
maniac Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Here is another example where it doesnt work http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/76952-who-will-first.html#post685738 Yes, @FN-GM (just to test it) I noticed that and was just about to add it. In my origenal post it worked for all 3 mentions, yet elsiegee's mention of geoff later in the thread didn't seem to work. EDIT: (And my mention of you there worked.)
elsiegee40 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) @FN-GM at the start of a post I'm just testing a theory! @FN-GM is a sentence not at the start of a post and @FN-GM, followed by punctuation. EDIT B*gger... they all worked this time(@FN-GM) Edited June 7, 2011 by elsiegee40
plexer Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 For some reason that seems random the correct mention tags are not always being added Ben
