So today I installed a new tagging system. If you want to get someones attention or show them something in a post then you can tag them. They then get a notification to go to that post.

So if you want to tag me you type @Ally

If someone has spaces in their name like the fat controller then you need to do @'the fat controller'

Have fun and have a play :)

You can detect Users by just adding @Username in the Post.
However if a username has spaces you have to write it with single quotes
(') like so: @'Test User With Spaces'
Of course the Plugin will not detect something like @Test User With
Spaces because it does not know when the name starts or ends then.

Also: Some special characters in usernames will not work either due to
security reasons. Nicknames with "-" are OK though.

So @User-Name will be detected
but @User&Name+Specialchars will not.

So @mark&Wendy and @R&N won’t work?

That discrimination against couples. Maybe that’s a good thing. 🙄

Ok, so my question is, how do I see notifications on the iPad. See attached, a screenshot of Motorhomecraic on iPhone, which has a side bar menu showing notifications. The we see the screenshot of the iPad. Different layout and no sign of a side bar menu with notifications . 🤔

I have the same screen on a PC, but I hover the mouse over the bell icon to see notifications, on Android I use the menu. In a nutshell, I don't know. I'll phone a friend and get back to you.

I don't know if this helps.
On android tablet, the bell now gives me 3 sections if I have something new in each section.
1, unread posts.
2, private messages.
3, notifications.
