@jaromanda please install nodebb-plugin-dbsearch@6.2.13 and try again. Let me know if the upgrade script works.

@Dk please try with the latest commit on master

@julian Done, git reset --hard master didn't work for me, but switching to origin/master resolved the issue.
Thank you

When I reply to messages by tagging a user, some numbers appear next to the username. I’m not sure if it’s because of the browser I’m using, but it’s definitely a bug.
@kereste-6f5c390e

NodeBB v4.2.1
Browser: Safari

@cagatay does it occur here?

@julian no here not.

julian baris Is there a list of all the hooks used for 4.0.6? Hooks page in docs shows as last update was 2022?

torn2 I've regenerated the hooks page on github https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/wiki/Hooks
