Mentions not working right?
Mentions not working right?
When I @ now and start typing names, their software isn’t proposing usernames to add them as a MenChun.
If I type it in correctly, then it will add them - sometimes.

Re: Mentions not working right?
@mik this works for me....if I type @sun.... it'll suggest @Sundayjumper for example.
I updated this over the weekend so it may be why.
Might be browser related? Working on Firefox

For me it's not working in the Quick Reply box, but it is in the full post reply page.

Maybe the mentions joined a union.
Re: Mentions not working right?
I updated over the weekend, so sounds about right.
Safari? Well there's your problem right there. Have you considered letting our lord and saviour Android into your life? There's a handy poll recently.
And for good measure, @mik works fine on my phone

Possibly related - I have a notification that I was just mentioned in a post by Alex (deskjockey), but actually he mentioned Zonda.

I changed the mention when I realised you weren't the originator (it was a poll, so I assumed). But did it before I posted.mik wrote: ↑Fri Jun 09, 2023 10:30 am Possibly related - I have a notification that I was just mentioned in a post by Alex (deskjockey), but actually he mentioned Zonda.![]()

Re: Mentions not working right?
I’ve just typed a mention on my phone (Safari, iPhone) and it didn’t come up nor does it show in the post. It’s definitely spelt correctly.
