Tip for the Week: Give Your Friend a Caret ^

July 23, 2018

Want to tag or add someone to post or comment? Just type ^ (the caret or shift-6 key) to search through and refer to other users on Searchfunder.

We know most other sites use @ but because so many emails get shared on Searchfunder.com, we wanted to avoid it.

This feature also works in the messaging system.

Happy Searching,

Mark

Thanks for the info - however, it does not seem to work for me. Any tips what may be the reason? (I am using a Mac, German keyboard - could that be a source of difficulty?) ^Christian Haehl <-- produces normal text, no search window opening... Thanks :)

Thanks! I was wondering why @ wasn't working, so this is good to know.
