The plugin isn't broken, it needs to be used in conjunction with this one: http://www.oxwall.org/store/item/829

Both haven't been updated since 1.7.4

Are you running both now with no problems and if so what version of Oxwall are you running? 

Yup, I'm using both just fine on Oxwall 1.8.1, you can see my Oxwall installation in my profile.

@autocomplete use to stuff photo uploads up and other thing in 1.7 

The other one use to stuff even more up in 1.7 so i fail to see how they would work in 1.8.1 

I can see how it can work, because it does.

They must made some changes to photo uploads 

And i just tryed it on my test site  is complete fresh install yesterday and @autocomplete does not work at all 

I don't know what to say, seems you have a lot of problems with plugins. I get that Oxwall isn't anywhere near perfect, but many of the store plugins work fine on the latest version for a lot of people. I'm having zero problems using it, personally.

@Scott: I'd recommend messaging the author before paying for anything, and ask if it works with 1.8.1. If he says yes and it doesn't, get a refund.

@Bryan So what does the autocomplete plugin fix for the newsfeed trends plugin?  Does getting the autocomplete plugin fix the bug about notifications not leading to the right place when someone is tagged?  What is the relationship between the two, exactly?

The newsfeed trends plugin works ok for me on 1.8.0, aside from the bug I just mentioned (and it doesn't work in comments/replies, which would be nice, but oh well, I can live with that).

@bryan, I sent him a message...  No reply so far. 

Thanks for your response,  I will wait to hear from him. I would love to have this feature on my site as it helps to keep members engaged and returning to the site(as long as notifications are sent when someone is tagged.). 

bryan maybe you do not know how the plugin use to work 

go to ur profile on the new site and try it
try @tammy and see if the drop down box appears and you can select my name from the list

it has not worked since 1.7

use firebug shows this error with it when try the @

Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user's experience. For more help http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/

so by the sounds of it if you use php 5.3 the plugin should work 

Topic was moved from General Questions.

I have this plugin and works fine for me. I am using 1.8.1

I tried it...  It does auto complete...  But it does not actually tag the person being mentioned. 

@Tammy, I'm running PHP 5.5.9, it also worked on 5.3 before I upgraded it.





@Scott: is there anything in your browser's error console? You can use something like Chrome Inspector or Firebug to check.

yes , it is working OK php5.5 and 1.8.1

I'll have to check that later Bryan.  I'm on my phone until tomorrow.  Right now it works tagging some members and some it does not. 

Haven't figured out a pattern or difference of the users it works on and the ones it doesn't. 

Strange. 

@bryan yes it worked when i was on 5.3  i think im on 5.6
