XF 1.2 What is the best way to disable user tagging?

[AndyB]

I would like to disable the new user tagging feature in v1.2. This is where one can type the @ character followed by a user name and the drop down shows names to select from. I would like to completely disable this feature.

It's a user group permission.

Hi Brogan,

If you're referring to the "Maximum taggable users per message", I set that to 0 but it doesn't disable the feature.

It won't alert users if it's set to 0. It translates to a user BB Code. No harm in that. Style it to look like normal text and nobody will be any the wiser.

I would like to be able to disable the AJAX drop down function.

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

Thank you.
