Tagging a user in a wall post/update using Facebook API

Question

I\'m using stream.publish to write to the user\'s wall and attempted to get \"@ tagging\" to work but with no avail.

If the user\'s name is Fred and his uid is 1234,

Answer 1

the correct syntax is

@[user_id:1:name]

it shows as a tag, but it doesn't trigger a notification. Anyone knows why?
