Can I easily see only places where I'm @mention-ed, not watching or assigned to a card?
Asked by Rebecca Miksch:

I'd like to be able to see all places - comments, descriptions, checklists - where I (or a single one of my colleagues) has been @mention-ed. I don't necessarily care if I have been assigned to the card or not or whether or not I'm watching the card. And I don't want to have to filter through all of my notifications (which sometimes are about general card activity). I only want to see the places where I have been mentioned. Is this possible?

By default, searching for "@username" will only turn up cards where someone was assigned. However, if you search for **comment:"@username"** ,**checklist:"@username"** , or **description:"@username"**, you'll get cards where you were mentioned in a comment, checklist, or description respectively.

For more info on special operators in search, check out our help article about seaching for cards across boards: <http://help.trello.com/article/808-searching-for-cards-all-boards>

body: This is not working sadly, and would be awesome to be able to see everywhere I am mentioned, that is one of our workflows, assigning checklist items to people by @mentioning them on the item

is there any progress with this? We have the same question:

unfortunately, the suggested solution of **comment:"@username"**, etc. is not working

Same problem here.

Just for future references, you can use a substitute, by exporting your Trello board to json, and look for the "@username" inside the json... This is no panacea, but it does the job.

body: I find it hard to believe that this is not possible. but comment:"@username" does not work.

I am able to see all my mentions on the android app, why not in browser?


author: Devon Latzen
body: Because we cannot find cards we are mentioned in, @mentions in Trello are actually non-functional. Basically, they just make the text bold. Mentioning someone is such an efficient part of a workflow, so it would be really useful to filter based on that criteria. Thanks.

body: I can't believe this has been missed on their product backlog for so many years! Almsot feels like a logical corollary to being able to filter by name - you should be able to filter by mention too. As a result of not having this on desktop - i'm finding some conversations missed if I don't regularly check my emails for notifications.

body: +1 for wanting this. I can't believe it's not a feature.

body: where is this feature - filtering by mentions


author: Dana Holmes
body: I am also looking for this feature. It's an essential component to workflows to be able to see everything you're assigned to or mentioned in. How can this not be available after years of people commenting about it? Please fix!
