It's Alive !!!

Ning To Jamroom


I am looking at Chrome on an iPhone and don't see that problem, but I do see it in Safari. I will have to see if there's something I did outside of an "if this displayed on a mobile device" and then try to figure out why it's a problem on Chrome and not Safari.

There is a reason I don't do this for a living.

This may work for the Nova skin, but it's working for me in the Ningja skin. I will have to play around with this some more. But I really do appreciate the pointer on where to start.

I know about the link color on mobile devices - just need to figure out which CSS class it is and change it. Focused on other issues first, but it is on my list to take care of.

Right now the Activity Timeline is heavy with my photos because I am doing a lot compared with the number of members who've signed in. As more activity is generated by members I will be contributing less, proportionately than they will so I expect that repetition to go away.

I do appreciate your pointing these things out to me, always appreciate a fresh(er) set of eyes on things.

Process for multi-profile accounts

Ning To Jamroom

By default, I have the "power user" feature - multiple profiles for an account - off.

But already, I have a request to do this. I am just looking for a best practices approach. I don't plan to charge for the service at this point. However, I may create a quota that includes Domain Mapping, multiple-profiles, the ability to create private pages and groups and charge for that.

Here's the current situation.

One member of the company already personal account on the system. The account owner's business partner wants to create a "company account." My idea is to merge the two profiles under a single account.

I was thinking of handling it the following way:

Clone a new quota from a quota that has the requisite entitlements - and call it, say, Multi - that did not allow signups but had the power user feature enabled.

The business partner would create a new account and profile and then I would assign that account to the Multi Quota. I then need to go and assign the other profile to that account.

Am I missing something? Is this the wrong way to do this? Is there a better way to do this?

TIA,

TheChocolateLife.com went live last night.

I had a little hiccup with Mailgun because I was getting a high bounce rate. Seems Ning was hiding those from me when I was sending out my monthly newsletters, so I have to cull those by hand.

SO ... I decided to be really sneaky and underhanded and take advantage of Ning's (lack of) oversight in this regard and I sent out the transition email via Ning's Broadcast Message feature. lol

About 400 members have signed back in and they are uploading photos, arranging galleries, adding blogs, following members, and doing all the things you'd expect members to do.

The response I've got back so far has been extremely positive. People like the openness of the new layout and appreciate the new features. It will take them a little getting used to ... but I expect nothing but great things.

Thanks to the JR team and to all the Ningsters who also lent assistance.

Brian - I will check to see if it is a caching issue.
