Hello!
Currently, tagging is pretty easy in the Alteryx Community, just type '@' followed by your favourite user, and you can add them to the post.
However, I've found sometimes it can require typing their full name to find users. I think this could be improved by having a 'suggested', or reordering of the tagging functionality. Let me demonstrate:
If I want to tag @patrick_digan (Sorry Patrick, just using you as an example :) )
I can type @patrick and he does not show up:
This makes me sad. Clearly I love my name displayed in his notifications.
The following accounts are displayed (sensibly, due to naming):
What I'd quite like is a couple of spots at the top of the searching functionality to be highlighted, as a suggested tag based on what you have typed. I think it would be sensible to have this determined by any of:
- Highest Rank (sensible, the sorting already exists in the graphql):
- Most recently/most often tagged
- Most active
- Potentially even more interesting, who has been seen most recently in threads (although I imagine this isn't possible easily).
And this would look like:
(yes, I do have certified MS Paint Master on my CV)
This should just to make it a bit easier to tag those most likely to be searched for on the Community.
Cheers!
