@mention - Feature

[cheeky~k8]

If anyone is wanting to delete the "@" part of the @Mention feature there is a way in doing so, it will just involve you editing your post after you have posted it.

I don't know if anyone is actually interested in doing so, but here is how if you would like to.

 

The @Mention feature is found on the user sidebar next to their post;

 

If you add someone into a post using this, all you need to do is click edit after you have posted your comment/reply.

Delete the @ part of the code (only the @, nothing else)

The link will still work fine, but the reply will read better than it does with the @ sign in it.

 

If this doesn't bother you, then just ignore this topic!

Thanks Cheeky, I am sure some of the community will find this most helpful.

I should be adding to my help series (which can be read in my blog). It will cover the forum and posting in a bit more detail, including making the most of the "View New Content" feature.

just to point out that those on mobiles will have to know the username, you don't see an @ mention there.

i wondered how people managed to do it, then i tried.. its a nice feature and a good way to get people chatting

As you said you would have to know the name of the user to add them in a post.

You could change to the full site on your mobile instead of the mobile skin, but it depends which you prefer.

I don't think there is a way of making the feature work without knowing the username unfortunately.
