grrrr, wordpress. I am doing it correctly then. There is a plugin we need..autconvert @ mention into link for micro.blog BTW I think the changes you made may have messed up your h-card. Also on:
@jgmac1106 There is one ;-) (well, not a full plugin, but a function) It doesn’t discriminate and assumes all @-mentions are Micro.blog usernames, but it’s easy enough to tweak the syntax if you need to autolink, say, Twitter usernames regularly, too.
