Mentions?

[vlatko-va]

can you make posts to include @ before Assignee name so he/she will "poked"

[mr-gosh]

if the name is present without an @ he is poked nevertheless, isn't he?
at least its working for me that way...

[vlatko-va]

what version of mattermost do you have?

[mr-gosh]

3.5.0 but i could update to 3.5.1 if that helps...
You could try to setup to mentioned even if your username or name is mentioned even without the @ in the MM user mention setup...

What troubles me on this issue is that in redmine the names are usually full: "FirstName LastName", whereas everybody is using aliases/shorter nicknames in mattermost. A redmine notification then comes likes this: [redmineproject] FirstName LastName updated Bug #xyz. I don't think turning it into: [redmineProject] @firstname LastName updated Bug #xyz is going to offer a full solution. Perhaps it would be better for each user to setup his personal mattermost settings so that he is notified whenever "FirstName" or "LastName" is mentioned, don't you think?

we created the MM users and said them "please use your redmine name - if not set up your personal notifications based on the name from redmine... ;)

I modified listener.rb to report Assigned to in the top line as mattermost do not parse the attachment (the box). Also "Name Lastname" is converted to "name.lastname".

Now it works as I wanted
