@Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1)
Yup, it works :)
Didn't it work before @Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1) ?
It worked, I was just testing the update (which did cause a problem after all...)
Me also test
@Gryzor test test.
How about @Gryzor in the middle of the line?
What does this mention-thingy do? Does the dude who's mentioned get notified somehow?
Doesn't work for the time being, last version was buggy and I'm waiting on a fix. Probably today, will explain then :)
Ok, update to the update installed. Testing...

It's been highlighted, though received no alerts or mentions from it, is that meant to happen?
Yeah, hence the "hmmmm", it should... damn.

Yeah it doesn't appear to be happening in my case.
@AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) oh wait, I just got a notification. Let's see...

Didn't happen for me, could it be something in the user settings? I haven't set mine up so I'm receiving Notifications, could that be the trouble?
@AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) yeah, only happened for me once, too. Definitely buggy, but I don't have the time to check it during the weekend probably... Do check your settings though!
And, thanks for helping me out :)
Ok, unsure if this will work, I've changed my Notification Settings to Instantly where it has "For topics and boards I've requested notification on, notify me" & changed "For topics and boards I've requested notification on, notify me of" to Only Replies. Don't think that will sort out the Mentions update.

@Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1)
The names don't seem to be coming up for me as highlighted...
EDIT: But came up as selected after I clicked Post. Hmmm, Interesting.
EDIT2: Still no Alerts Appeared.
Ok, now I did get a notification.
The names not coming up is a browser issue apparently, btw. But if you type the name normally it will work.

@AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330)
Hmmm okay. The names not coming up is a bit of a random thing on my browser (Safari), sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
The notification doesn't seem to occur at all at my end. @Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1) - that seemed to appeared just now. @AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) - Likewise
Would one be notified if they put their own name in their own post?
Yeah, I must take it up with the developer concerning the browser issue. Have no idea about Safari though, to be honest.
I did get a notification now, but I have no idea if you get a notification if you mention yourself, @AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) !

Nope still nothing. I'm now on Chrome and it seems to be the same thing on here. I even cleaned the Cache up before Signing into here. So maybe either Settings or Bug @Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1) !

@steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325)
no notification received.
Activated all notification options, @steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325).
No notification received.
How about now, @steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) ?
Sorry, no notification.
Sucks... trying to work with the dev...
@steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) test...?
Sorry, still no notification received, should it appear at the top of the page like quote and like notifications?
@steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) you should get an email too... Dev is working on it...
@Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1) , No notification at the top of the page and the only emails are telling me about replies to posts that I have made.
I must be the only one getting them. Weird...
Just checking, @steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) , @AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) , do you have Email notifications enabled in your profile?
-Profile->Profile Info->Mentions
@Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1), sorry still not working for me.
There is no "mentions" option in my profile alert selection screen, maybe that's the problem.

Ohh we may be onto something here. Cool (or not)!

I've enabled the "Notify me of replies" for this thread, if you want to do 2 replies, perhaps put my Username in the second post and perhaps I can tell if it has worked.
In my settings the only Option I have enabled is the 1st one:
"Receive forum newsletters, announcements and important notifications by email."
I would of thought that if my Username was used it would be deemed an important notification.
Yes, definitely. Plus, you should get two notifications from this thread - a regular one about a new post since you're following the thread (if you do) and another one with the mention.
Just to make sure, check the horizontal menu on the top of this page here (or every page): under the Profile menu, does the Mentions entry exist or not?
@AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330)
PS Seems to be working perfectly for me now, so I'm trying to figure out why regular members don't have it since the permissions are correct...

I got one email back for the Reply, but none for the mention.

Ah now, I see the Mentions Bit and if I click on that I can see all the Mentions Piling up in there since the beginning.

I can see what's there under the Profile Tab, but have to go into that to see what's there, so that bit seems to be working fine, there doesn't seem to be any notifications being sent from that if that is what is meant to happen.
...but there's a settings in there too?

Ok I found that in the Mentions Area, it's got it's only set of settings and in those settings none of those boxes were ticked, so I've enabled the email notification whenever a mention is made, so it should work now.
Arghhhh why then did you tell me it's not there?

Because I was in the Account Settings section under Notifications, and didn't even see the separate Mentions Column until you mentioned it. :D
As I said: -Profile->Profile Info->Mentions
Did you get a notification now, @AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) ?

Yes.
I just thought it would have been better if came up in the Notifications Box (the explaination mark inside the triangle), since that's where the replies to your posts and the Likes appear.
Will look into that.
Updated again... can you confirm, @AMSDOS (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=330) , @steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) ?

I have the email notification, but nothing in Alerts, was that the update @Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1) ?
No, nothing for the Alerts right now, but it probably works now...
I too expected to enable mentions notifications under the notification tab, I have now enabled mentions notifications via pm.
Nothing yet.
@steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) if you only updated the setting after the last update then naturally you wouldn't get a notification for past mentions... how about now :)
As for the alerts thing: unfortunately the version we're using does not support mentions, I could update it but it's a further $15... worth it?
@Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1), I just got my first mention notification at the top of the screen and recieved a pm, so great success.
Now that the whole of the cpcwiki membership that have read this thread know how to enable mentions, I would say that you do not need to spend the $15 on this. :)
You mean you got a notification at the top (triangle)? Whoa. :D

@Gryzor (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1), yes but now I realise that was for the pm not the mention.
@steve (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=325) ahhh right, I was stumbled for a minute :D
