I've added a mentions modification that will allow you to use the "@" symbol before a name. This will send an email to the member and will notify them that you have mentioned them.
There is a menu under "profile" that will show all of your past mentions.
It is supposed to be able to auto fill the name for you as you are typing it in, but unfortunately it is not working right at the moment. I will be working on that part of the mod soon.For the time being, you need to spell the username properlyThe problem has been solved and it is now auto filling!!
@Gerard @PickelledEggs
Awesome dude. Really awesome.
It shows a little notification and everything in the menu bar!

And it also shows you were mentioned in tapatalk
Superb innovation
@PickelledEggsThe Turkish Atheist forum http://www.ateistforum.org/ (http://www.ateistforum.org/) has a variant of this property.
When some user quotes you, the notification alerts in colour red which gets attention very much. The color red says ''i'm here.'' : )

I was thinking that you don't need to code. Forum's design facilitate these kind of changes.
See now that's something I'd like to do.
On one hand I don't want to change up the board software... on the other, SMF is really starting to fall behind the times!
That's pretty cool
Although, Don't thank me,
@SoldierofFortune, Wolf deserves the credit lol

Are the names auto filling for you?
@wolf39usnope. not autofilling as of now. I did notice that you don't need to worry about capital letters or anything though.
@PickelledEggs Did me quoting you go under a mention?
It was before. I clicked this thread under "recent topics" though before I looked at the menu bar... lol Try again,

Trying again!
You are right
@PickelledEggs I would also thank him before i had posted, it was in my mind, but it was late. I could edit but my laziness...
Thanks
@wolf39us.
You are, too, doing a lot to maintain this forum in service all round the world as a atheist sharing platform.

Hmmm. didn't show up that time, but maybe because I unchecked "email notifications for mentions"?
Oh there we go. Maybe it was just a bit delayed
@wolf39us got a notification
@PickelledEggs I confirmed it doesn't work with quoting. Only with the @ symbol.
I might be able to parse @*USER* in the posting script.
Auto-filling usernames has now been fixed !!
Nice! Now I can easily summon
@Hakurei Reimu for Touhou hijacks. It will be glorious...

*lol I'm working on configuring the spoiler code -pickelledeggs*
I have re-added "@" mentions.
@PickelledEggs@wolf39us Apparently we might want to consider re-adding the spoiler tags too. See above...
OH. Right. I forgot. I'll take care of that tonight
The tag works btw
@PopeyesPappy
One less thing I will never understand...
Still working on the spoil code?
@CavebearIf you put an "@" sign followed by someone's username with no spaces, it sends them a notification that someone has mentioned them.

Yeah. I'm having trouble figuring it out. I got it to be able to spoil the text, but it won't hide the image...

Thank you! I never understood how that meant anything other than something symbolic like "meant for/directed at person X". I must have used it wrong in the past. I'm always glad to learn to use any format properly.

I made a weak joke reversing more for less. No confusion intended. My apologies.
