HOW do you get the @with name (8 posts)

  • OK…I could try and figure it out…but I am being transparent here.  HOW THE heck are You using the @ sign and getting the highlighted name to come up in response to a question.  I’m sure it’s easy…I just can’t figure it out. 

    I have come to just “ask” then I know :)

    thanks!

    A few things:

    1. Be sure to check out our getting started guide here:
    http://www.socialmediaexaminer.com/getting-started-guide/

    2. When you see someone post something, in the upper right is their @username  Simply type that in and they will be notified of your reply (kinda like Google+ but you need to type it in fully)

    Make sense?

    Sure does!  Thanks for the response! 

  • @leilajones I’ve been copying & pasting the @name in the top right corner of everyone’s messages since people’s usernames vary – some with dashes, some without.  :)

  • @leilajones You can now click on the person’s @ name in a thread and it will copy into the reply box

  • Thanks!  makes things lots easier.  Beta testing is a good thing  @mike-stelzner

  • Is there a way to change your @ name? I signed up via facebook and it pulled in Michaelmurphy which is my given name but I go by Mickey and I would prefer that to be my @ name.

  • @michaelmurphy sorry to inform you but once done, you can’t do that, and even if SME Club allows that, it may lead you to lose all your previous transactions/interaction with the club members. But again, at this point, club has no such system to let users change @ name. Sorry for that :(
