Tagging ??

Hi andrew. A challenge: not sure it is technically possible but you are the expert.. :) can you make the option of tagging a friend on a post, like in facebook ?

I actually looked in to this ages ago but the plugin that did the job was a piece of junk. I'll take another look though! Watch this space :)

LOL! Thanks for making me laugh!

Wow !!! It seems that we can tag each other ? I just tagged you andrew. Is it working ? You are a genius ♡♡♡

Alysia, how did you tag?

I KNEW that @Alysia would be the first to notice.

Yes you can tag now but it's a little dodgy. I'd give it a 7/10 but it's there.

In order to tag someone in a post like I just did with Alysia just put an @ in front of their username. So I'd tag @Gab122 thusly:

Code:

  @Gab122

Hmmmm @andrew it didn't send me a special message that I'd been tagged. I must have fallen into the 3/10 side of things 😜 I'm tagging you and @Alysia to see if you get "tagged". Btw - do caps matter for tagging?

Hmmmm...you're s'posed to get an email and a notification on the website. Yeah I think you're right about 3/10 :)

Nope capitals don't matter. You can use upper/lower case.

What is 3/10 or 7/10 ?

Wow ! It is working ! I thought I can tag only at the top of a thread. But now I can tag even in a specific post. And I saw that we can even create a poll by ourselves !
Next challenge, andrew, can you connect us with heaven so that my sweet dr. Phil will be able to continue to post here ? @pberggren1 ♡

I'm not a facebook user, so what does tagging do?

@vdub this is tagging. It calls you to read a post and dont miss it.

Hmmmm, I'm wondering how I would use that....

I guess you are saying that if you put the @username anywhere in a thread, it will send a notification to the user whether they are subscribed to the thread or not?

Exactlly :)

@andrew I was wrong! I did get an email notification that I was mentioned! I'm part of the 70%! Woot woot! 🤗
@Alysia - as an explanation: Andrew had said the tagging works 70% of the time. When I thought I hadn't received a tagging notification, I figured I fell into the 30% when it doesn't work.

So far it works for me 10/10 :)
