Mentions / quote notification.

[Nick]

I remember it being suggested that mentions or quote notification be added and the reason against it was because of server strain. Now that we have a better one, can that be added?

 

[Doppelgänger1]

This is a great idea, because I know of some other forums that I am a part of have this feature and it really is useful.

Ever Grande City introduced this a while back, and it's good. Given we just moved to our new server I'm sure it won't be too bad, but maybe have the option to turn the notifications on or off like the ones you get when your posts are liked.

I myself don't like Mentions, but if everyone wants it, I don't see why not? :3 As long as there's a way to turn of mention notifications, I'd love to see this.

Thank you for bringing it up.

This is something that is hoping to be introduced with PokéCommunity 2.0.

So yes, eventually. It's on the list.

^That's good to hear. I think a mention system is well worth implementing and with a new server I hope it's something that can possibly happen.

Iirc, Audy has this on a long list of to-do's for PC2.0.

 

[Honest]

Going to confirm Pedro's post, it is on Audy's huge list.

Uhhh just gonna put this out there, but there's already tons of add ons for this. It doesn't have to be custom built, soooo.

This is what Audy said in the older thread:

This is on my list. I'm going to rewrite some of the code that handles everyday stuff like sessions and fetching posts to make them more efficient (because vBulletin does some really stupid things). Once that's done it'll be more reasonable to start adding features like this.

Also, we aren't going to install the plugin by DBTech because it puts a really ugly obnoxious footer copyright link even if you pay for the pro version. I'd rather code the relevant parts of it myself and not have the copyright.
