    [MENTION=548]TJ[/MENTION] Did you get this one? The other post I edited it until I got it to work (first few tries it didn't work because I left a space when there shouldn't have been) so that may have been why you didn't get an alert.

    Nope. Nothing. Just checked my profile to see if I had them disabled, and I don't, so it must be the short username thing...

    So, I wonder if manually entering the user number and name with mention tags works at all, other than to provide a clickable link to the user profile? None of the ones I did with changed usernames seemed to work in the Ragmans Angry Yelling Thread, I would have expected a response from a couple of them at least, lol. Lets see...

    Testes, testes 1 2 3 - [mention=1533]PrimantisAddict[/mention]

    ...and now the normal way - [MENTION=1533]86WARD[/MENTION]

    Did it work?

    I got one notification. Try it the real way in one post and then the "manual" way in a second post. You might be right ...

    No.

    Yes.

    Only one notification. So I think you are correct in that the "manual" mention, really doesn't work...

    So what exactly is the issue? The short names or trying to use the mention with something other than someone's username?

    [MENTION=1]SteveRobWhatever[/MENTION] ... manually entering the mention does send a notification nor does changing the name attached to the mention. Where we thought that if we entered the mention manually, it was notifying members, it actually isn't.

    nor?

    I think that should have been "doesnt send the notification", not does. Not like it's a big deal, but It'd be nice to be able to manually enter the TJ's and Omens and have them work.

    They do have the option to choose a larger screenname, being that they are staff members.

    I think the problem is solved. I had to set the minimum username length from 5 to 2, then update the user name table in the site's database.

    It should work for [MENTION=548]TJ[/MENTION] and other now.

    So little bug fixes like this are done when you're gone?

    I'm not abandoning the site 100%. Plus I can't just leave and leave bugs that I know need fixing. That's just not cool.

    Damn you heckers....I can't even give you guys up 100%. :icon_frown: :bong:

    I figured it had to be something like this. Now we can all annoy [MENTION=548]TJ[/MENTION] with mentions. :icon_cheesygrin:

    I don't think that [MENTION=548]TJ[/MENTION] would appreciate that very much.
