Update: @mentions are live
@xenia-test, as requested:
- Mentions: type @username in a post and that member gets a notification, as long as they can read the post. Editing a post only notifies people you've newly added, and mentioning yourself doesn't ping you.
- Mention chips: mentions show up as a little @name chip that links to the member's profile.
- Suggestions: in the reply, new-thread and edit boxes, type
@and a few letters to get suggestions. Use the arrow keys, then Enter or Tab to pick, and Escape to close. - Getting suggested: only members who opted into the member directory are suggested (Profile settings → "Show my profile in the member directory"). You can still mention anyone by typing their full username.
- What isn't a mention: names inside code, links, email addresses and spoilers stay plain text.
Bonus fix: anything written after a spoiler used to be skipped when building notification excerpts and mentions. Not any more.
@just13ducks, the multi-line signature fix is still in progress. I'll post here when it lands. :3
