questions about user tagging

1. Which letters/special signs are allowed for the tag to work?

2. One of my users has a space in her username and the tagging works while another one too has a space and the tagging doesn't work with her username... what is up with that?

Hello @rhe,

These are some examples that don't work :

@test@sd.com
@<3Natalia<3
@#Natalia (# Hashtag will be taken into account not @)
@ won't be taken into account inside code

In most cases you can quote the username for it to work. Example :

@Ange Tuteur

Code:

@Ange Tuteur

@Ange Tuteur

Code:

@"Ange Tuteur"

As Ange described above you must use quotation marks if someone has a space in their name for the tag to be taken into account.

But I cannot test the usernames like that, with a quote. It only works then if there is a user with the name.

What?

what I said. I cannot test a username that doesn't exist yet.

You can only tag usernames tbat are on your forum.

There is no need to test the names we have tested it for a long time and if it works on this forum then it will work on all of the forums As already said if there is a name with a space in it then you need to do it like this

Code:

@"Ange Tuteur"

or if the name has a underscore like this APE_Man you do the same thing

Code:

@"APE_man"

if you really insist in running a test then make a test account on your forum and test it
