Thanks @bphelp
But this is not what I mean. Basically, @bphelp is mentioning you. However, if your username is not “bphelp”, but a non-english name, how could I @non-english ? BP seems doesn’t support it for now.
@jianzhi There are BuddyPress websites in Arabic and Chinese among others, with @ mentions working in their sites.
What language are you using for your site? What’s the character encoding in your site, i.e., database? http://radoff.com/blog/2009/12/03/chinese-characters-in-wordpress/
Thanks @mercime
For your questions,
1. Chinese
2. UTF-8
Could you send me a Chinese site URL based on Buddypress, and the @ mention works well?
@mercime
More info for you regarding our site,
1. We are based on WP 3.5.2 Chinese version and enabled multi-sites
2. It is working well when we put any Chinese activity, forum posts, groups, members. For now, we only found @ mention doesn’t work for Chinese username.
Hi @mercime,
Do you have any suggestion whether the BP mention would work for non-English language, such as Chinese?
Or where I could get help if needing customized BP mention to support Chinese characters?
Thanks,
Peter
