Have you tried asking on the bbPress support forums ?
thanks for you reply.
i thought that is buddypress feature so i asked here.
i have also posted the same thing in bbpress now. hopefull will get an response.
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
is the mentioned user supposed to receive a bubble notification? Yes.
Have you tested with Twenty Twelve or Thirteen while using only WP + BP ?
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.
hum… something is unclear. Which type of forum do you use ? Site wide forum, group forum or even both ? Also, when you mention a member in a topic, do you get mention suggestions when typing @ a letter or two ?
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?
