Add aplication to INSTALLED_APPS in **settings.py**:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...,
'mentions',
)

Add app urls to your **urls.py**:

Implement a mention provider:

model = User

def get_title(self, obj):
return obj.username

def search(self, request, term):
return self.get_queryset().filter(username__istartswith=term)

Add this provider to your **settings.py**:

MENTIONS_PROVIDERS = {
# You can put your provider anywhere you want
'default': [
'accounts.mentions.UserProvider'

from mentions.forms import MentionTextarea

class PostForm(forms.ModelForm):

model = Post
widgets = {
'text': MentionTextarea
}

To urlize mentions in your templates, use `urlize_mentions` filter:

{{ post.text|urlize_mentions }}
