@mention

Yup! Instant email notification

@thyname  - So, I don't exactly know why it works for me, but I can offer the steps I use.

First, I'm working on a Windows laptop, using Google Chrome browser.

When I want to @ someone, I type the @ sign and start typing the user name. A-goN starts auto-filling. When I see the name I want to @, I click on the blue highlighted box with their username. If you don't get the blue highlighted box, it does not work. Sometimes, if I'm sure I am typing the correct username, but the blue box does not appear, I will refresh the webpage and try again. Often, if I refresh the page, it will work when I try again.

After I click on their username in the blue box, it will turn the @ and username into black bold type. I then always tap the spacebar to insure I am not appending to the @name .

This procedure typically works for me, but not 100% of the time. Try it a few times to see if it works for you.

You have to be following the conversation and the person you are @ ting has to be following the conversation as well. I think!

Did she mention my name? Gordon Lightfoot....😁

When all else fails I just copy and paste the blue highlighted user name. Sometime when I hit post I lose the blue highlighted user name and have to edit my post and re-enter the copy and paste blue highlighted username agan. About 99% of the time it works.
