That's not how you use the mod, in between the mention tags is the userid, not the username.

You're supposed to just use @Username or [mention]userid[/mention] :)


Fillip

Installed on my forum as well running 4.1.11 patch level 1

Only issue I had was when using @username it would sporadically not mention certain people.

I did however turn on the requirement to use a semi-colon and this seems to have fixed the issue.

As for the [mention] code I tried this using user ID's and it still shows as only the @ symbol with no links to a profile of any kind.

This however is not something we would be using a lot as we don't really go by user id #'s

Is there a way of stopping users being told that they mentioned or quoted someone on their own profile?

Example: If I quote the user "Jack". I go on my profile It will say: MattGarner quoted Jack.

Not currently, but we'll be looking into this as an option for future versions :)


Fillip

hi , this mod must update for vb 4.1.12

plz update ... tnx

It works fine in 4.1.12?

It works with default style, but it doesn't work with default mobile style.

OK gotcha


thanks

1. Thanks for this nice mod.

2. I don't have this option, did i miss something.

Ability to tag all your friends by checking a checkbox instead of typing out usernames

I've installed the mod in my forum, but it's not appearing anywhere.
Maybe one thing you should know is that I've changed my forum path for security reasons.
Appreciated.

The OP is wrong, that's actually a Pro-only feature. Sorry about that :(

Have you set your usergroup permissions?
You need the Super Admin permission via config.php to see it if you have not granted yourself Can Administer Advanced User Tagging via the administrator interface.

I'm not sure what you mean by changing your forum path for security reasons, but to my knowledge there's no security benefit by not having the forum in the normal /home/<username>/public_html folder or a subfolder within.


Fillip

Sorry about that. What I meant was that I changed the 'admincp' and 'modcp' folders for security reasons. I don't know if that makes any difference.

I'd already those permissions, but I searched and I didn't have Can Administer Advanced User Tagging permission abilited, now it is... However, I stil can't see it anywhere.

When you have that permission, you'll see it in the AdminCP. However, unless you manually uploaded the file that is meant to go in the AdminCP folder into your new admincp folder, it will error out.

Fillip

Sorry, I miss confused somethings. Everything is working fine.
But, i've one question: How do I delete a Tagged User? I mean, not banning him, but deleting its tagged.

You mean remove the tag from a thread? That cannot be done at this time.

Fillip

We have just started using this on our forum (over 2M posts), and it seems to be working great except that when I quote someone, it shows up as them having quoted me -- under my Quotes tab, it will say A quoted Me, when in fact I quoted A. Any thoughts on why that would be happening?

Also, Fillip, are you taking paid mod requests? Implementing email notifications instead of simply navbar notifications would be huge for us (especially with the user option to turn it off as desired). We haven't upgraded to the Pro version yet but absolutely would + would pay for that mod if it were an option.

Are you sure you're not reading the list entry wrong? It will show that "B quoted A" (where B is your user name).

We currently don't have time to take on any paid requests, sorry :(


Fillip

Goodness - sorry; you are right!

Sad to hear that you're not taking paid requests; maybe we'll see that feature pop up at some point down the road (we can hope!). :)

nm.

Also, how can I turn off the Post Tagging thing at the top of posts or move it around??

Turning that off is a Pro-only feature :)


Fillip

I have too many tabs in the profile already, is there an on-off option?

I'm new plz can you tell how do i get that "Pro Feature". Thanks

You must go to their web site and purchase the product.

Hi Fillip,

I really like this mod and my members give it a thumbs up. I am going to go Pro with it but I am getting reports of it not working right on just some users. I can not figured out what is going on and hoping you may have an answer.

These are msgs I get from members:

The only recent change I made was upgrading to 4.1.12 patch 1 three days ago. This mod is working fine for most members... but a few are reporting this problem.

Thanks Fillip.

Hmmmm... Do you have vB Optimise installed? If so, you could try flushing the cache.

If not, could you get them to paste you the URL that's giving them the blank page?

If they give you "yourdomain.com/profile.php?herp=derp" then check your public_html folder for any error_log files. Hopefully they contain some hints as to what happened :)


Fillip

I just installed this. It work's when I @username you can click and it links to the profile but nobody gets a notification

How do you remove the "thread tags", "mentions" and "quotes" tabs from a users profile page?

I think thats a Pro option only mate

Can you check the column dbtech_usertag_mentioncount in the user table for someone who should have received a notification?

Doing so will break the plugin, as the notifications will be permanently stuck "on".


Fillip

Same issue here, no notifications but links fine.

Do you mean column "dbtech_usertag_mentioncount" or coloumn "dbtech_usertag_mention" count ?

Im looking at dbtech_usertag_mention but not sure what you mean by count, but under the above I have.

userid
mentionedid
postid
dateline
type

I mean the column dbtech_usertag_mentioncount in the user table :)


Fillip

0 for every one.

Hi Fillip

I have one little problem: when I tagget someone in post after the tagging there is one CR (<br>)

see the image in attachments please. Can you help me?

Regards

Also having this problem. Links to profile but no notification is given for @username. Notifications are given fine for tagging.

Hi,
I just installed it on 4.2.0 and nothing seems to be working i don't see any option while creating a thread for tagging users but i do see options in admincp..... I am attaching a screen shot so if someone can check and tell me if i am doing anything wrong. by the way i did change settings to different options in admincp to make sure it might work one way or another.

i didn't hit installed because its not working me as of yet.

Thanks in advance for the help :)

We haven't had a chance to test it on 4.2.0 yet, sorry :(

@Everyone else: I'll be looking into notification issues when I'm updating this mod to 4.2. Thanks for your patience :)


Fillip

Hi,

Is it possible to include the ability to mention usergroups? I.e. @Moderators will send a notification to all users within the Moderator usergroup.

Cheers

Works for me on 4.2

We'll take it into consideration for future versions :)
