Recently, users of the VKontakte social network have access to additional options for the convenience of communication. One of them is the mention of a person with a link to his page in various publications.
Instructions
Step 1
Find out the person's account ID to make a mention. To do this, just go to the page of the user you need and click on the address bar. Copy the identifier that looks like the word ID with a specific sequence number. Sometimes, instead of it, some phrase is indicated in Latin letters, if a person has established a more convenient and memorable address for his page.
Step 2
Apply a special script to create a link to a person "VKontakte": [Link address | Link text]. Set the page ID of the person you need as the "Link address" item, and a short description in the "Link text". This will give you a link to the person's profile on VKontakte. It can be used during correspondence or when mentioning a person in your own notes. Also, instead of a user ID, you can specify a link to any group or public of this social network, music album, video or photo.
Step 3
You can mention a person as an appeal if you want to write him a response in one of the discussions. Click "Reply" under his comment. In this case, an appeal to the person by his name with a link to his message will be automatically set at the beginning of your message at the bottom of the topic. It is possible to mention a person in your message without an active link, but in this case it will be more difficult to understand who exactly you are addressing.
Step 4
Press the "*" key (an asterisk on the keyboard) before writing a message or posting a publication. You will be taken to a mini-list of your friends, from which you can select a specific person and make a mention of him. In the same way, you can make a link to a group, a list of dialogues, etc.
