### Mentions
You can mention a person in a post. This is simply done by adding **@** before the channel name you want to mention.
For example **@dishubuser+1813**.
!!! The number is different for every user.
If the channel you want to mention allows mentions, the a auto-complete box will show and the mentioned channel will recive a notification.
Like many other platforms, Hubzilla uses a special notation inside messages to indicate "tags" or contextual links to other entities.
## Mentions
You can mention a person in a post, so that the mentioned channel receives a notification. Using @mentions will reproduce a copy of your post on the profile specified, as though you posted on the channel wall.
This is simply done by adding **@** before the channel name you want to mention. For example **@dishubuser+1813**.
The number is different for every user, every connection. If the channel you want to mention allows mentions, then an auto-complete box will appears, so you just have to click on the channel you want to mention.

**Note**: in the permission settings, **Can forward to all my channel connections via @+ mentions in posts.** must be allowed by a channel to be able to mention it.
**Important**: At the moment (05/27/2018), the @mention works only if you set a connection with the channel. But it should be available for any channel soon.

### Deliverable Mentions
The deliverable mention is only used for forums or special channel. This means that when you use the deliverable mention your post will be posted on that channel's wall, but also to this Forum or Channel "network" (e.g. send to all the forum members; if you have permission to do so).
The deliverable mention is done by adding **!** before the channel name, for example **!disroot+516**. Here to the auto-complete box will show.
The deliverable mention is only used for forums or special channel. This means that when you use the deliverable mention your post will also be posted on that channel.

### Private Mentions
Like already seen in the [Composing](../composing) part, you can choose to restrict the viewing of a post to a single person or a number of people. You can do this by selecting channels or privacy groups from the privacy tool. But if you prefer you can also just tag them with a privacy tag.
Like already seen in the [Composing](../composing) part, you can choose with who you share in the permission setting. But if you prefer you can also add one or more private mention by adding **@!** before the username, for example **@!dishubuser+1813**. This will override the privacy selector, and only the mentioned channels will have permission for this post.
A **privacy tag** is an username preceded by the two characters **@!**, for example **@!dishubuser**.
In addition to tagging these channels, this will also change the privacy permissions of the post so that only the mentioned channels will have permission to see the post.
![PrivateMention](en/PrivateMention.gif)
You can have more than one privacy tag, for instance @!bob and @!linda will send the post only to Bob and Linda. This mechanism over-rides the privacy selector.
**Forums** may be mentioned also by adding **!!** before the forum name. For example **!!dishub** will post to the Dishub forum privately. The forum will redeliver the post to all the forum members, but your own followers will not see the post unless they are also members of the Dishub forum.
You may also **tag privacy groups** which are "public" with **@!Name_of_the_group**. When you create or edit a privacy group, there is a checkbox to allow the group members to be seen by others. If this box is checked for a group and you tag (for instance) **@!Friends**, the post will be restricted to the Friends group. Check that the group is public before doing this, as there is no way to take back a post except to delete it. The group name will appear in the post and will alert members of that group that they are members of it.

### Topical Tags (also known as Hashtags)
You can set one or more topical tags. This will help others search for a specific topic. This is easily done by adding **#** before the topic. For example **#tutorial**
---
**Note**: Topical tags are generally a minimum of three characters in length. Shorter search terms are not likely to yield any search results, although this depends on the database configuration.
!!! #### Mentions in comments
!!! You can use mentions in comments.
!!! But using Deliverable or Private mentions has no effect, except that the mentioned channel may recive notification.
Topical tags are also not linked if they are purely numeric, e.g. #1. If you wish to use a numeric hashtag, please add some descriptive text such as #2018-photos

#### Mentions in comments
You can use mentions in comments.
But using Deliverable or Private mentions has **no effect**, except that the mentioned channel may receive notification if they were already included as a recipient in the conversation. **TO BE CHECKED**
