I will let my users know that some IE browsers are not supported.



That's the point, they can't. I checked the usernames were correct - they are - and incidentally, when I edit their post to correct one of the usernames and save it, that does not convert to a link either, so I would guess your add-on does not work in post edits, only in the original post? I will await further reports from other members who encounter tagging not working for users despite a correct name and maybe then we can move forwards with this.

Previous I tested post editing, and it works correctly.
 
Yes post editing seems to work for me - but not for the user's posts that did not tag properly. I know this because I have edited it several times in an attempt to fix his tags. All of his tags where on a new line, if that has any significance?

I see that this addon does not search texts in usernames, but search at the beginning from usernames.Why don't you embeded xenforo built-in suggestion like in /members/ page?

Because built-in suggestion won't work in WYSIWYG editor or in middle of a text. Also, as far as I know built-in suggestion only searches at the beginning? Anyway, this add-on makes use of built-in suggestion system (partially).

All IE versions are not supported fyi, not just some.
Also, editing should work too. Probably you have deeper problem in your site?

Tagging at the beginning of the line works just fine

Thanks for your answer. BTW can you make the suggestion popup appears below the text (like Facebook), not below the text-editor.

This has been suggested before and it's in the to do list but to be honest, the priority is low on this one :)
 
OK... uninstalled for now. What I will do is watch this thread and hope that someone else gets the same issues. If they do, then hopefully you'll have more info or more justification to spend time testing/fixing.
 
Change of plan - prior to uninstalling this I have asked for all members running IE to tag me and also to try tagging me on a new line - both cases where the other post does not work. I'll report back on the results.

Some more info about the post I cannot edit. If I edit @username even to delete one character and put it back (so it still reads correctly), it won't tag when saved. If I delete the @ and type it back in, it won't tag when saved. If I delete the last character of the username, then pick the correct name from the autosuggest box, it won't tag. But, if I start a new line and enter @username from scratch, it WILL tag when saved. And, if I highlight all of his post and click "remove formatting" on the toolbar, even though no formatting appears to be in the message, ALL of the broken tags suddenly work!!

This is very useful. I will take a deep look into this. Thank you :)
 
Also, if I get any more tag failures, I will see if I can get the actual database content for that post, so we can see if there is anything there that should not be.
 
Right - got another non-tagging post, even for tags edited afterwards... I have identified the problem. The user in question composed the text in MS Word and cut and paste it into the editor. The raw data for the non-tagging post, even when I edit it afterwards to try and fix the tag, is:

Code: 
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]This text was cut and pasted from Microsoft Word 2010 and spellchecked with a spelling error that was corrected.[/FONT][/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]@Admin [/FONT][/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]@Admin was added using forum editor[/FONT][/COLOR]

Adding a tag in an existing line (in amongst the text) works. So does removing the formatting. So I guess the problem is tags started immediately after the ]

Hope this is some help.

(Edit - if you type a space at the start of the new line before the @ then it converts OK, so this is definitely related to the @ on a new line being right next to ] from the formatting codes)

This explains a lot. Currently, the add-on only cares about @username with a space/tab/line starting character before it. This was done to prevent incorrect matching with email address. Probably I will allow ']' as it's quite common.
 
Having made another test post on my forum, by entering a tag on a new line, but then highlighting it, making it bold and bigger font in the editor, that too won't turn into a tag, I assume as it is nestled against the ] from the BBcode. So, I do think you need to urgently add ] as an allowed neighbouring character.
 
Since the change was made to include the [ .... if there are spaces after the bracket, names will not appear. Example:

@[SHO]

That will work fine and 10 names will populate but as soon as I put a space after the closing bracket no names appear. Everyone in our clan has a username [SHO] (space) their name.

Go to AdminCP > Options > [bd] Tag Me, set "Suggestion Maximum Length" to average length of username (something like 10 or 15)
 
xfrocks I really appreciate this update - just installed and working great. I can confirm you can now encase tags in bbcode and they work :) Thank you!
