Is there anyway to do it though so it does happen? Some kind of code I could create? I have seen it work on another site where @mentions in post comments do give a notification but no idea how they did it…
I had a quick look at the link your provided and I’m not really sure it’s quite what I am looking for.
At present there is already a ‘notifications’ area on the profile page (and on the ‘admin’ bar at the top of the page) and notifications for @ mentions on the profile itself are working and also notifications for friend requests are working too.
The only thing that isn’t working is notifications for @ mentions on comments on posts. Whenever someone replies to a comment on a post and starts it with @ username it is being linked to their profile but it is not sending a notification to that person that they have been mentioned.
