Bro @musashi, I tried to pm you but was not able to. Need your help to isolate and hopefully solve this @ tag (Mention) issue. All these while, only your @ mention appear in my "Alerts". Did you change any of the default settings? I ticked all of mine but still no go. It is at <Account Preferences>. What is your setting like? Thank you for your help :smile:

I might be wrong, but I suspect that's because both of us are using Firefox/Chrome on desktop/laptop PCs:

I am using Chrome in incognito window, @musashi summon appeared!

I got the summon, thanks @musashi. I am using firefox in private window (same like Chrome in incognito window).
whereas I suspect everyone else who has bothered to "mention" or "tag" you in their posts so far (i.e. by making the effort to type the "@") are using smartphones or tablets (e.g. @ginfreely and @AhMeng), so their web browsers might be significantly different enough to cause their "@" to work differently towards our PC's web browsers. :frown:

Also, @Leongsam might have to make "a few more changes to user group permissions", according to an administrator in another XenForo forum:

Thank you for the feedback and information. :thumbsup: So, there's nothing else we can do and our settings should be fine as they are.

Yes, I hope @Leongsam is able to tweak user group permissions and get this tag function to work. :biggrin:

You're very welcome!
:D
And I think it is working now because for the first time, I received my first-ever "mention" and it was from our "dear" @ginfreely:
