Tagging other users in posts

I haven't figured out how to get the @ for other users. How do?

Yo shalomie. Quote this and check the script above. ^

You basically put [ member=Id# ] text [ /member]. I find this by clicking the user and checking the number at the end of the url, dunno if that’s antiquated. Yours is 41062, I can’t currently see mine in url from mobile.

I know you’ll use your powers for good. Shalom.

Was curious about this, it doesn't seem self-evident at all. Test: Thanks @Dale for asking and @Uh Oh for answering!

You’re welcome, even though that method is extremely tedious.
Sometimes it’ll give me a drop-down menu in my text box if I simply put “@“ and then start typing the username (it’s inconsistent in my experience). If you select a username from that menu it’ll tag an actual account @PuffinMuffin  . If you don’t select from the menu and simply type @PuffinMuffin it won’t link.

Thank you! This way is way easier, especially on mobile.
