Mention @ plugin issue

Hi!

I have installed and configured the SP-Mentions plugin but I cannot make it work in posts. When I type the @ symbol followed by a letter, I do not get the drop down menu or the autocomplete. I have not done anything with tags as I would just like to have this feature active in posts. Are there any other SP Forum settings that could interfere (like allowing users to access the member list, etc.) Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

As I didn’t write that SP plugin I will need to check in the code to see about restrictions. But – a stronger possibility is a simple JavaScript conflict. Do you know how to check in the console to see if there are any errors being reported?

Hi. Not sure. I have used Firebug’s console error screen while loading items in my forum but have not encountered any errors (not sure if I am doing it correctly). Is there another way to check?

Thanks!

uses js and jquery… given some of your other topics here, sounds like you might be having js/jquery conflicts…

see:  http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/faq/troubleshooting/what-is-this-jquery-conflict/

and its only going to work in tinymce…  so if you are having a tinymce issue per other topic, might need to resolve that first…

Hi Mr Papa,

I followed the instructions:

“If it is being loaded from WordPress the main library will have the file name of ‘jquery.js?ver=X.X.X‘ where the X’s refer to the version. For example – WordPress version 3.3.1 loads up ‘jquery.js?ver=1.7.1‘ for the main library and ‘jquery.ui.core.min.js?ver=1.8.16‘ for the UI library. You would normally see both entries as:”

And it loads from our site wp-admin and not from Google.

I cannot find any conflicts.
