A mention is a piece of text that contains another persons' @username anywhere in the body of a community contribution. The person you mention receives a notification in the notification center. If you reply to someone's reply, the @username of the person to whom you reply is automatically added to your own reply. Edit the content in which you want to mention someone, for example to attract someone's attention on a new topic. Type @ followed by the name of the user you want to mention, for example @Johnsmith. A list of names appears as you type. When you finish editing your text, a link to the person's profile is automatically created. |
