How do you get the member name to show up using the @? EG, see this post for what I mean https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...post1606220533 where member names are "circled"

I've tried just using @member_name but that doesn't seem to work for me

Thanks!

Yes, you simply type the @ sign then the member's username immediately following. You will receive a list of suggestions that match as you type. The username must be exact, and you must select from the list, for it to work.
