User Tagging / Mentions Implemented!

[Myrm]

Hello everyone.

This is feature that a lot of people have been asking for and I finally found a viable solution.

How To Use:

Yde -- Use the @ symbol in front of the username of the individual you want to tag. It will auto-parse and notify the individual you are tagging via a notification.

PLEASE NOTE:

@ threads are still not allowed and still break CoC. This tagging system to bring specific individuals into a conversation. If it is just an @ thread towards 1 person, then it will be locked per usual.

Hope you all enjoy this!

Nice. So you can basically tag anyone? Or is it restricted to friends? Since that would actually make more sense.

 

[Yde]

Nice one! Can think of quite a few constructive uses.

It is for anyone. I am not seeing any ways to make it only for friends. I will bring that idea to the addon author though and see what they think.

When you click the notification you get from someone tagging you, it first sends you to your own profile page. Wouldn't it be easier to be sent immediatly to the post?

Yeah the notification link doesn't seem to work properly for these new features. It sends you to your main profile page instead of the proper tab.

Ye it doesnt work correctly but it will probably be fixed sooner or later.

Yeah sadly doesn't work right. [MENTION=5141]Shane[/MENTION]

Yeah sadly doesn't work right. Shane

[MENTION=1694]Eliot[/MENTION] you are just too witty.

Looking to fix this in the coming days.

 

[Myrm]

Sorry that it has taken me so long to fix, but I believe it is fixed now.

If someone wants to quote me or @ me, then I can test it further. When you are mentioned, quoted, or tagged, the notification link should take you to the proper tab now and not the User Profile home.

Let me know that it works properly now!

Hopefully it's fixed [MENTION=5141]Shane[/MENTION]!

 

[Myrm]

Hopefully it's fixed Shane!

Nope. That did not work.

I changed some code again. Should be working now. Let me know if the quote/mention notifications work [MENTION=1694]Eliot[/MENTION].
