  Hi @blogwithme13,

  Currently, you can only mention other users of the blog you’re posting/commenting on.

  Read more about this at >> https://wordpress.com/support/user-mentions/

  Hope this helps.

  Best :)

  Not sure if that works inside of the blog post itself. I tried but it didn’t for me.
  Let’s try to get answer from the staff themselves. Maybe they can help.

  Tagging this post for their attention.

  Hi there,

  This only works for comments. However, there’s the P2 theme that allows the mention of other users that are members of your site. You can find more information here:

  Please note that this feature is only available on the P2 theme as this theme is designed for group collaboration.
