Also, when I hit reply, it doesn’t automatically add the @ corresponding to the member I'm replying to.

Is there any option that I must activate?

 

Thank you

I'm sorry but wpForo doesn't have @nickname drop down. When you reply it automatically adds @nickname in editor. Other users nicknames can be found under their usernames or in their profile pages.

Is it a setting I need to turn on somewhere?

I'm tagging @sofy here to test, it doesn't drop down or show me that I have the right person or link?

The user mentioning feature already exists in the wpForo plugin.  It detects @nicename, sends email notification and changes the @nicename to this user profile link. 

The email content can be edited in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Emails admin page.

Newbie here!

Quick inquiry, I am curious how do you tag a user in a post? I want to be able to tag some of our users in discussions. I would hope this would trigger some type of email to them saying they have been mentioned in a post?

Thanks in Advance 

Sam
