New feature - Notification when Screen Name Mentioned

New feature - Notification when Screen Name Mentioned

Postby Tyler » November 13th, 2011, 7:02 pm

Just wanted to let you all know of a new feature I put into the forum. It is currently enabled for all users. Anytime someone mentions your screen name, you will be notified through a private message. You can disable it if you would like. To do this, click on User Control Panel at the top, click on Board preferences and then make sure No is selected next to Notify on a mention in a post.

Now, when someone types @username (for example, @Tyler would notify me), if that user has it turned on, they will be notified through a private message that they have been mentioned and provided a link to the post.

Enjoy!

LOL Tyler, I had to try it out... and since you just posted it, I figured you would be the only one that has it turned on so far. LOL I promise I won't keep sending you PMs because of this feature.

Okay - enabled it for all users. So if you do not want it, you can just turn it off.
