How do I tag a user in my Facebook posts?

Facebook, unfortunately, does not permit third party applications to tag specific users via API. However, Facebook will permit third party applications to tag a specific page within their posts, as long as the tag is formatted properly.

In order to tag a page, you will need to format the tag as follows:

@[numeric user-id]

This will allow Facebook to interpret the tag as a page name.
