Hi,

I spotted a bug in the mentions plugin. At least on my site.

If I type @user as the first character of a new reply the hyperlink will not work. You will get the drop down and auto-complete, you will see the "@user" appear when you selected a user but once the message is saved it will remove the @in front of the user and not hyperlink the user and not send him a notification.

On the other hand, if I type a space just before the @user then it all works fine.

Thanks.

Tested on your site and the post above and the bug is there as well.

When I am composing the message I see twice @yellow-swordfish in the lines above. But when I save the first @ will disappear.

its fixed here! 🙂  so just a matter of releasing... and finalizing testing...

we are tentatively planning pushing out 5.6.6 next weekend, so I would imagine we would push out plugins at same time assuming they pass final testing..

I have updated the Mentions plugin to Version 2.1.11 and the bug is still there I believe. And indeed on your forum the feature is still not working as the first character of this message was @ followed by your name.
