Notifications for @username mentions

Post by Basslint »

Sometimes quoting someone is overkill (e.g. when someone replies to multiple messages) or you want a specific user to participate in a thread. A solution could be mentions, i.e. @Basslint sends me a notification.

A phpBB plugin for it already exists: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/exte ... e_mentions

I don't know if it supports spaces (like @Michael Willis or @"Michael Willis"), in any case I'm sure we can implement them!

It seems like it works! And it works with whitespaces as well! Thanks, also for the speed :D
