bbpress sitewide forum.

oh right, forget to mention it, when i mention a member in a forum topic, i do not get mention suggestions when typing a letter or two.

same thing here when i are typing in the buddypress.org reply editor, when i do @danbp, i dont get @ suggestions.

@danbp, i have mentioned you in this reply, do you get notification saying i mentioned you?

Hi @danbp,

i have tried on other default wordpress theme, the mentioned users notification does not work on any of them.
i actually checked the notifications page, there has no notification for the mentioned action. so i dont think it might be a theme related issue. it seems like the notification event is not recorded in DB.

so to recap of what works and what does work:

the notification does not work if I mention someone in forum reply or in a forum topic.
Notification works for when i mention someone in buddypress activity streams.

okay, i tried the following:

tag user in BuddyPress Activity, user could receive notification
tag user in bbpress forum post/comment, user could not receive notification

it seems like tagging user in forum does trigger notification, can anyone here confirm if this is expected behaviour?

if i want to trigger notification when user is tagged in forum post/comment, what should i do? thanks
