- Selecting a Member: As you type, a list of relevant members will be displayed, narrowed down based on the characters you've entered. Navigate to the desired name and click on it or use arrow keys to highlight it. When you hover over a name, it will appear highlighted in blue.
- Inserting the Tag: Once a member's name is selected, it will appear in your post content as a highlighted tag.

3. Email Notifications for Tags:
- Receiving Notifications: If someone tags in a post or comment, FG Funnels will send an email notification to alert you.
