Profile Comments: Where should they show up?

Ning To Jamroom

I think I have a related question.... I would like our members to be able to comment on other member's profiles. I was able to do that using another skin on another network I set up, but I can't seem to do that using the latest network we set up using Sage skin. Any thoughts on how to set that up?

This is particular useful for our "Welcome team" who take turns welcoming new members.

What's the default setting for notifications being sent to members?

Using Jamroom

I was looking at the settings for notifications for one of our members and I noticed that it had "Send email" automatically checked for New Account Notify. Does that mean that member is automatically notified when anyone joins our network? see the attached example.

Our members don't want to be notified every time someone joins, so if this is the situation, how can change this without going in and changing every person one by one.

World map of members?

Suggestions

Is there a module that would show where members are from? We have over 2000 members from over 50 countries and it would be great if we could show them a map with them all on it so they could see who else is in their part of the world.

It would also be good if they could opt out of the map if they don't want to be on it... thoughts on this?

If there's something already like this, please let me know - I'd love to try it out.

Inviting 2000+ Ning members to log in - anything I should know before jumping in?

Ning To Jamroom

This was the last two migration I had to do... I did two smaller ones (with Paul's help of course!) last Oct. & March. This one was the biggest and most complicated (two Nings merging into one, and many more members). Thanks for all the help to everyone here on JR, especially Paul, strumelia and all the other former Ning creators and JR staff. You guys rock!

ditto. I just put # without the ( ) and it didn't work.

Yay! what a fun morning! I've been watching folks log-in, responding to emails with questions, and seeing them start posting already (tip: if you want an active online community, start one for people who are community organizers in the real world!)

Help Understanding User & Profile Questions/Information

Ning To Jamroom

question: so if I set up a question under user/account that is only viewable by admins, can I require it? Then when does the member see and answer that question?

Yup, #1 & #2 all set. Thanks for #3! Great advice and info, as always. Wish me luck!

We're just about ready to send out new passwords for the 2000+ members we imported from our Ning sites. Any advice before I go ahead with this?

I've done Ning-to-JR migrations before, but nothing with a group this large.
