How do I notify a member when I write about them?

It can be helpful to let someone know when you mention them in a discussion. You can send another community member a notification about your activity using the @mention feature.

Follow these steps to use @mention:

1. Type the @ symbol (shift 2 on a keyboard) in a Comment, Post, or Reply, and then start typing the name of the person you want to notify to see a list of community members.

2. Click the member you want to notify.

3. Repeat as necessary to include multiple people.

4. Complete your message.

5. Submit your activity and the member(s) you @mention will appear in bold and will receive a notification.
