How to tag another member.

Tagging is simple. You can tag any member here in a post or the shout box. When you tag them, they get a notification that they were tagged in your post and/or shout.



NOTE:  For these examples I had to add a space after the @ to prevent another tag from appearing.  When you tag, do not include the space.

1.  Type the @ symbol before their name with no spaces.
2.  For example to tag Dennie you would type @ dennie
3.  The tag will then look like this Dennie .

If the tag doesn't show up, double check that you spelled their name correctly. If you did and it still doesn't show up -
1.  Hover the mouse pointer over their name by their avatar.
2.  You should see an @ symbol and a name that briefly appears.  This is their handle.
3.  If you move the mouse too much the handle will disappear.
4.  You then use type this name, their handle, instead of their forum name.
5.  For example, to tag our sweet Banana Boat  you have to know her handle as typing @bananaboat won't tag her.
6.  Hovering the mouse pointer on her name above her avatar displays her handle.
7.  Typing her handle @ npacheco then tags her.  

I hope this information helps!


Thanks Dennie and Banana Boat for letting me use you two as examples!
