Requesting additional help - tagging?

Once you have enough points to get to the lounge you can post a thread asking for assistance from another lounge member assuming they frequent those environs. You can also check the activity of the member you are referring to and find a thread they are participating in and post there with a link. Past that you can just wait, there is no way to tag anyone.

When you mention someone in a discussion, I think that they can get a notification. I am mentioning ChitlinsCC. let's see if he responds.

Otherwise, you can try tracking someone down via their activity stream. When you gain access to the lounge (8000 points) you can put out a batcall. There is no formal or built in way to communicate with another member here,

EDIT - thanks to my super typing skills, it looks like I posted the same information that deggie posted. That was not my intent. Too slow again on my part.

I Received your mention. But honestl, I forget exactly what the requirements are for it. We shall see if CCC chimes in.

The Unaltered JiveSoftware has the feature - it plays an integral part in the concept of community collaboration. Apple has buried the feature for "the masses" - I am not sure that I disagree totally, since this is (purportedly) the largest community of its kind in the world (do the math merely using sales figures!) Apple has the data, I wish they would share it!

Thank you Demo

That is exactly what my reference to tagging meant - was not sure if it did anything at all

However - as per a post from turingtest2 yesterday - I wondered if the tagging was also dependent on the permissions for emails from the activity stream and so forth

Hmm. what post was that?

As for mentioning someone in a post - that only works if that person has notifications/emails enabled. For instance, I do not. I get no emails at all. So, I would not get the message.

It wouldn't matter if you had emails enabled - now or before the change I illustrate above here > Link to this post - the email notice feature for mentions was DISabled before, and now has no switch FOR it. Maybe yet another bug in AppleJiveWare is why I got email notices at one time and now do not(?)

That's not exactly how it works. I don't have email notifications enabled either, but I do get the mentioned notifications.

Well, I do not get any notifications - don't know what the difference might be.

Of course, anything available to lounge members only cannot be mentioned or discussed here.

😉 Yep!

I just looked at my preferences and I even have "content I'm following" disabled - do you?

I Have everything disabled expect for email notifications for helpful and solved responses. Meet me in the the lounge???

ok.....

I'm horrible at long threads so this may have been mentioned. Mentions only work in the unmentionable. Since it was dis-abled by Apple no emails are sent.
