I've been mentioned by my username, @IanBish, several times, and I just notice them browsing. I haven't seen any notifications as such. So is there a way of telling if I've been mentioned (tagged) in a post?

You should get alerts, both for when your posts are replied to, and for when your name @IanBish is mentioned. See the bell on the top right of the screen...

But maybe check your preferences and when notifications are generated

Thanks. They were all set to "push notifications", which I don't get.
