Tagging is not working?
 

I'm being told that I'm being tagged in a lot of posts, that don't show up in my "tagged" notifications.

Lo and behold, when I check the threads I'm directed to, I am indeed tagged, but not getting notified.

The tag text is showing up in teal (vendor name color) rather than the usual hyperlink blue...

Based on what I've seen while lurking the suspension threads, you may have hit the maximum limit of tag notifications (which totally doesn't exist, don't take this seriously).

@CSG Mike, did it work this time? This is a "mention." I'll tag you after this.

I wonder if @Ultramaroon users can mention themselves?

no.

Added tags now.

Nope, no notification.

I got one.
Your it!

Dammit. I'm it.

Tagging with the "@" is really finicky at times (I've used it in my "Landmarks" thread original post). The "@" really needs to have a blank space in front of it, and doesn't work if you are using other tags like lists, etc. It also can be finicky when the forum name has a space in it.

It's a bit of a pain to tag you because of the space in your username. You can't just spell it out and I think people are leaving out the space.

Nope

Are you sure? I'll try to tag @GSG Mike by just typing his name and see what happens.

EDIT: As expected, the tag didn't work. If type @Ultramaroon, it just works.

So how did you handle the space in his name?

EDIT: I just noticed in the advanced reply page there is a "Mention" button that will wrap the tags around text.

I rarely use the full reply page and I expect the same is true for most people, not to mention Tapatalk users. In the quick reply box you can just use the "@" symbol and get a mention for user names without spaces.
