Auto Mention

Post by shaily »

Hi Martin,

Once we mention a profile using Auto Mention... After how long can we use it again? The problem is that I have mentioned 1000 profiles and they are all being used now...
Which means I will have to find some other profiles, here after.

I think it should be a good idea to reuse a profile to mention using Auto Mention after a week or so... or else, we will have to keep searching profiles to mention.

I also think that auto mention should be purpose based... and if you are just using it to point a message to a particular profile then we should be able to reuse the profile... may be a checkbox to suggest if we can reuse the profile in auto mention.

Hope it makes sense.

Cheers,
Shaily

you cannot they are unique by default.

with millions if not billions of users, that shouldn't be too hard :)

I don't know, getting a spam mention weekly from the same user may be annoying...

You can set @profile1 as many times as you like, so you can target particular users with no issues. Is just the AUTO MENTIONS that is unique as is more of a shotgun approach than a laser sighted sniper.


But even if the unique option was turned off (currently not possible) there is no concept of "once every (x) days" either.

But I'll note your suggestion down

Hi Martin...
Thanks for the response...

It will be great to get a checkbox to get an ability to sort, apply and be able to reuse the profile in auto mention.

Cheers,
Shaily
