Is it by intention that

- the mentions don’t work as in other discourse forums?
- private messages are completely unavailable?

This here is the only Discourse forum I use. So my question is: Wat is “the mentions”?

Eg, if I type @RainerBielefeld in a post, this automatically creates a link to your user profile. You can have a look at one of my other forum accounts, like the [ownCloud forum](https://central.owncloud.org).

@alfredb  
Yup, I can confirm that no link will be created here.

And yes, I checked at this [Discourse Forum](https://forum.disroot.org/t/mastodon/3264/4): Link for @nickname will be created

Found another mission point:

- Ability to mark a post as solution, which would set a checkmark in front of the thread title.
