I have installed a phpBB extension for forum mentions: you type "@" followed by 2 letters and a list of possible user to mention pop up @Dade.

Does it notify the user that he/she was mentioned?

Test @Dade
From the description, it should:
after submitting the post it will create a notification to that user.

Yup, it works ... but seems to do a mess when quoting a mention :?:

It should be this: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/exte ... pic/194686

I guess it is better to disable the extension, the problem is quite annoying.
