Forum Feature Spotlight: @<Username> Tagging

[Support]

Hey there fellow BYH Members!

Hope that all of you are having a blast using and exploring our new website platform. Since it is new, we've thought that it would be better if we highlight a New Forum Feature every now and then. This will help you get more familiar with the new features and hopefully let you have fun using it.

So, to start it off, let's talk about the @<Username> Tagging feature.

The @<Username> Tagging feature allows you to tag the members in a particular public message in threads. This will alert them that they were mentioned in a post even if they are not watching or following that particular thread.

All you have to do is press the @ symbol and start typing the username of the member. This will immediately appear:

Just select the member that you want to tag and then this will appear:

Once you posted this message, the system will automatically alert the member that he/she has been tagged in a post.



Isn't this great!?! Come on guys, try this out now!

@TAH

I appreciate that you have been trying to tag me (& others) but they aren't coming up an my "alerts". It appears that you are using the @ symbol and copy/paste the name. Figured I'd "tag" you so you'd see this thread

@Goat Whisperer it did show up in alerts. I just read the writing up above and now I get it. Let me know if you get this so I know this is the way to do it.

Got it!

 

[TAH]

Got it!

Okay. Thank you.
