How to tag someone in your post?

Question

Mindy Jensen · Answer

@Kenneth Riley,

To tag someone who has already posted, type in @? and a list of who has posted will pop out. This is a scrollable list, so if there are a ton of posters, scroll until you find the person you want to tag.

You can also tag anyone you are colleagues with, by typing the @ symbol plus their name. It should appear in popup box, too. You have to click their name to activate the mention, though.

@Kenneth Riley,

Here's the key, though:

Type an "@" and at least the first three letters of the person's name. Then, wait a moment or so. There should be a box pop up with the matching name(s). If there's more than one name, you can use your mouse's scroll wheel to go down thru them (if necessary) until the one you want shows up. Then, click on the name.

The "@?" trick @Dave Visaya suggested also works.

The forum code should insert the linked name for you after you click on the name.

Hope this helps...

Hello @Kenneth Riley you can tag people out of the conversation/ thread if you are colleagues with them. You may also use @? to mention people already on the thread.

Hello, to tag someone in your post you select "Link" , "Insert Link" and in the "Text" portion you'll write their name including spaces with the "@" signal in front of their name. I hope this helps
