NEED SOME HELP
I am wondering how to get a members name in red. I tried to use the display code but it didn't work for me. If you are very old, Tudor the Turtle and his "Help Mr Wizard" might come to mind. Thank you for any help you can provide. Even though I built computers from scratch in the Marines, I can't operate them worth a darn.

Re: NEED SOME HELP
I'm on another forum where they type an @ in front of the name and it comes up in red. Maybe it will work here?

Sadly not. Back to the drawing board.

Re: NEED SOME HELP
@Ken4230 Yup. Just like Labrador just said. Type the ampersand "@" then start typing the letters of their handle and a drop down menu will appear. You then hover the arrow over their handle and click it. Then it will show their handle bracketed by {mention}, then you're good. You just start typing after that. Don't feel bad MissS just taught me a couple weeks ago. I had no idea how to do it for 8 months lol.
Bee happy and pollinate freely!

Re: NEED SOME HELP
@FatBeeFarm Testing it on you. Whether it works or not, I appreciate it. It did work the second time when I actually followed your directions. After all these years, I am still a work in progress.FatBeeFarm wrote: ↑Sat Aug 03, 2024 12:09 pm @Ken4230 Yup. Just like Labrador just said.
