I just installed a new feature which shows the avatar for the member you are calling out.

So when you enter an @ sign and the member name it will show like this...

ADMIN

Or like this jaydub

jaydub, can you confirm you were called?

So I can have the avatar displayed with or without the @ afterwards, which do you prefer?
 
I like it with the @ in front, it makes it more clear as a callout and not a link.

It will work on any callout (member tag) moving forward.

@silentg not sure if you get the email when you tag yourself

If it works it's a great way to notify yourself of a topic you want to continue reading later.

Keep in mind we also have bookmarks for that, click here to bookmark

I also have a draft feature enabled so if you make a new topic or respond to a post without submitting it will save that for 45 days.

I can unequivocally state we are the most feature rich domain forum on the internet.

There is more coming soon, I am looking to give domainers all the tools they need to communicate with the public.

Wait until you see what is coming to Market Pages soon :eek:

I think the @ sign is interferring with the code.

Lets try without it, it can take up to 5 minutes for the email to arrive and you can shut the email off in your preferences.

jaydub - second try
 
Nothing in my inbox yet except in the "alerts" section about the mention.

So the cron job runs every 8 minutes to send those, been 8 minutes now
 

So here are some answers why you would not receive an email...​



Questions and Answers:

Q: How often are emails sent?
A: Every 10 minutes.

Q: If the member looks at the Alerts notification before getting the email, will the email still be sent?
A: No.

Q: Does this add-on send an email if the member has a state other than valid?
A: No.

Q: Does this add-on send an email if the member has "Receive site mailings" unchecked?
A: No.

Q: Does this add-on send an email if the member has been banned?
A: No.

Q: Does this add-on send an email if the post is being edited and a user tag is added?
A: No. Only new posts with user tags get an alert.

Q: Does this add-on send an email if the member has been inactive for a long time?
A: No. If a user has been inactive for over 6 months they will not get an alert.

Q: Are the user group permissions that can prevent an alert?
A: Yes. The Maximum mention alerts can prevent an alert from being sent.
 
Got it about an hour ago…sorry I was tied up at the time
