How to tag band members in chat messages and manage mention notifications.

You can mention any band member in a chat message by typing @ followed by their name. They'll receive a notification and the message will be highlighted until they read it.

  1. 1Start typing @ in the message input
  2. 2A dropdown will appear showing matching band members
  3. 3Use the arrow keys or mouse to select the person
  4. 4Press Enter or click their name to insert the mention
  5. 5Finish your message and send it

How mentions look

Your mention appears as a highlighted name in the message (e.g. @James in blue). For the person mentioned, the message card shows a blue border and 'You were mentioned' label until they open the channel.

Mentions cut through channel noise — use them when you need a specific person's attention rather than posting in a separate message.

Mention notifications

Every @mention creates a notification in the Notifications section. You'll also see the blue highlight on the message in the chat itself. The highlight clears automatically when you view the channel.
