How do you reply to a post and just show the name of the poster?

Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the "Reply to this topic..." link.  This opens an empty reply box.  Then type an at sign "@" followed by the first few characters of the name of the person you're replying to.  As you type characters, a list of Users whose name starts with those characters will appear.  Once you've typed enough for the desired User's name to appear, click his/her name on that list.  You can actually refer to another User that way anywhere in a post as I am doing here, @IndyBanker1946.

We used to have a plug-in added to our system that put an @ on a blue background next to the "Quote" button in the bottom left corner of every post.  That button would perform all those steps with a single click.  Unfortunately, one of the system updates by our platform vendor made that plug-in obsolete several months ago.  I just noticed last week that there's a new plug-in available that looks like it will do the same thing.  I'll try to catch up with @JTT to see if we can purchase the new one and plug it in.

Thanks for asking about this.
