Are You Replying To Me (Or Anyone Else)? Then Please Let Us Know

I have noticed over the years that some members reply to my posts but don't do so via the reply feature, nor do they tag me. Often I've found out by accident because I was looking through the threads for something else. I never want to seem rude and not respond to the replies, but if someone does not reply directly to me by hitting Reply or if they do not tag me, I may never see that they've addressed me.

You can make sure the person you are replying to gets a notification that you did so by:
1. Hitting the reply in their comment box or


2. Tag them as shown in the following example. When you want to tag someone, type the @ symbol, then directly after it start typing the letters of the person's name. Names that start with the letters you typed so far will pop up. Click on the name you want as shown in the box. There have been times I've done it and the names n't pop up so I've had to do it again (sometimes it was due to my spelling errors). You'll know tagging was successful when that name has blue lettering once you hit Post reply. I've decided to tag @StarSong

I've also seen replies that were ambiguous, therefore not discernable as to who they're actually for. I doubt I'm the only one that this has happened to. So if you are addressing us, please let us know. Hopefully this information will be helpful for our new members as well. @Starr and StarSong, I also hope you don't mind that I chose you for the example.

I’m pretty sure that they just don’t know about @StarSong feature or

Hi @OneEyedDiva! Nice to see you and always happy to be of help. I've found the same thing - people responding to me without tagging or replying so I miss the post, OR people replying with statements like, "I've found the same thing..." and I wonder which post they're referring to.


….OR just putting in the person’s message in a QUOTE …. bottom right >>>

Lots of ways to get someone’s attention.
