jquery.mentionsInput is a small, but awesome UI component that allows you to "@mention" someone in a text message, just like you are used to on Facebook or Twitter.
This project is written by Kenneth Auchenberg, and started as an internal project at Podio, but has then been open sourced to give it a life in the community.
This is a fork of the jquery.mentionsInput that is and will be modified a lot by Nickolay Tzvetinov part of the Empower United team.
- Many tags with the same name can be added (for example if you have two different users named 'Kurt Cobain').
- Easy and facebook like deleting of tags. For example if you tagged 'John Lennon' and you navigate the caret over 'Lennon', hit backspace - you'll get tag 'John', with the data of 'John Lennon'. If you hit backspace on 'John' now, it will be deleted.
- Tags can be added manualy in the format
@[some-tag](user:id). 'user' here is only an option. - Many bugfixes (although there are a lot of bug to fix too)
- New skin.
