How to Tag Somebody in a Status on FB When @ Is Not Working
- 1). Log on to access your Facebook account.
- 2). Click your cursor in the status box at the top of your recent news page. You may also click in any comment box.
- 3). Type the name of the individual, without symbols, in the status or comment box. Facebook will automatically link the name, as you type it out, to that person's Facebook account -- as long as you're Facebook friends.
- 4). Press the "enter" or "return" button on your keyboard to complete the post. For example, if John Smith is your friend on Facebook, type his name within the text of a status update or comment box, as "John Smith" -- without parenthesis -- and his name will automatically appear as a link.
