Mention system and restrictions

[chrron]

Hi there,

I find the mention system great, although there may be members that dont like this feature, or I have users in a certain usergroup that I dont want to allow this to use. From my understanding, the system really dont have any possibillities to restrict certain use or allow individual members to opt-out this.

 

May be an idea in a future release?

It’s part of the regular notification system. So the user can indeed opt-out (of the notification via notification list and or email) and the admin can set the default for new registrations.

Just made a plugin: https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/8847-mentions-enhancements/

Waiting for someone to approve it.

You can disallow user groups to be listed in the mentions list.
