XF 2.2 Why don't some users show up when I type @ and their usernames?

[Steve Freides]

For reasons I cannot understand, for some users, if I type on @<username> it doesn't find them, although once I click to save and post the message, then it does. I was experiencing this today with a user who was last active just over a year ago.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

This is exactly why.

This might help remove the limitation:

We own this package. But would it make a difference when I’m composing a message?

It should bring up the member's username in the autocomplete when composing the message.

We have only installed a few things from the package. We’ll try this.

Thanks very much.
