How can I address members with Chinese names?


Recommended Posts

Neither speaking Mandarin nor having a Chinese keyboard, I failed addressing Chinese members directly. You know, the @... function, as in @王月月. I can produce the character sequence using copy&paste, but I can't get the notification trick activated like with @John Eucist or @esaj.

Is there any usable workaround for this?

Copy and paste it to your address bar in your browser (don't hit enter) THEN copy and paste THAT back to the forum post. That will strip away HTML codes that makes the @ thing not work.
