Description | If emails are lost or not received there is no place to see where a user has been mentioned except searching issues by @ username | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
It could be a very useful to have this, I confirm, since, users may not be informed by email depending on their settings. |

This would prove difficult at the moment, considering that Mentions are not stored as independent entities in the database, they are just a string in a text field (issue's description, note), which gets processed by parsing the text when it is submitted. So implementing this feature would require either a significant refactoring of the code including a data model change, or a slow and inefficient parsing of text fields. |

Ok I understand your point. Thanks for you quick answer. Maybe if one day the data model changes.. :) |
|
It's not a problem of changing the data model - the main issue is that nowadays I'm nearly the only active MantisBT developer, doing this in my spare time and not having enough of that... But contributions are always welcome :-) |
|
oh :o, i was not aware of that. |
|
i have done some dirty customization in my installation to achieve this because i do share @clegoff 's view. However, I'm not ready to publish this as plugin because it doesnt comply to MantisBT team coding standard high level what I did, |
