Hi MT'ers,
I purchased and updated our Mention and Tagging Add-On!
Now we are able to tag members by just typing the Usergroups or usernames!
Here is a little Tutorial on how to use the tagging/mention option!
Attention
Before you start using the Usergroup Tagging...DO NOT TAG ALL USERGROUPS IN ONE TIME!!! This will Time Out The Server!!! Tagging 2000 members at once is a big task and heavy load on the server! | ![]() |
1* When creating a new Thread and you save your thread, you will see a button on top of the OP (Opening Post)
named 'Tag User(s)' ... Click that Tag User(s) button to get started Tagging members.
2* You will see that the block will expand. Now you have 3 options:
A. Tag specific 'Usergroups' only. For example: Administrators, Moderators, MT Members etc....
If you use the usergroup names only those members in that group will be tagged!
Remember that spelling has to be exact!
B. Tag only specific 'Usernames' only. Same as before, just type in the username/Nickname you want to tag.
Remember to separate each username with a comma, and that spelling has to be exact!
C. Tag 'All Friends' is the last option and the easiest one. Check the 'All Friends' box that appears after you click on the 'Tag User(s)' button,
and members from your friends list will be tagged automatically!
3* Now click the submit button and your done!
Tip
The member who sends out the tags will not receive any notices. Also you can add tags to an existing thread even if tags have already been sent. Any duplicates will be ignored, but this is another way to 'Add On' to another members tag notices. | ![]() |
------------------------------
How to Use the Mention Option!
Very simple... If you want to mention one or more members in a post just add this @ symbol before the username!
All members with this @ before their username will be notified and will know to answer your question etc....!
That's it Enjoy the new Add-on features!
