A suggestion to all forum owners - create a temporary Beta 2.0 forum

Bradley Blinn11/21/155:08 PM1 reply

If you are the owner of a high traffic Hoop.la website, you might consider creating a temporary forum for your members to post any issues they are experiencing with the 2.0 upgrade. This will be a quick and easy way to collect feedback from your users and then you can report the issues direct back to Social Strata. Donsider posting a site-wide featured discussion so that everyone clearly knows how to access the temporary forum. After a few weeks, you can disable/delete...

Controlling headers, top banners, footers

Ted @ Crowdstack12/3/1510:51 AM0 replies

Crowdstack uses a responsive grid to make sure that interfaces can automatically adapt to different screen and device sizes. We use Foundation's responsive system . Most of the time, you do not even have to worry about that. But there are a few areas where you really need to be cognizant of the overall page structure and responsive and those include your header, footer, and top banners that are displayed at the top of the page. Each of those items is full-width by default and so they will...

Cool tool to create social widgets

Rosemary O'Neill1/20/179:35 AM0 replies

I just found this cool (mostly free) tool that helps you pull a dynamic photo feed from Twitter, Instagram, and/or Facebook. If you use their Pro version, it also includes custom CSS and moderation tools. You can paste their embed code into custom content blocks or custom widgets, or into the header or footer of your Crowdstack site. Options include scrolling banners, grids, and map style. SnapWidget If you decide to try it out, come back and share your design!

Reactions - an expanded take on "likes" - and a new reply/comment interface

Ted @ Crowdstack3/2/201:13 PM4 replies

❤️

Another major feature we are adding soon is "reactions", to be included when we roll out Pips . Reactions are an expansion on the "likes" you are already familiar with, with a much broader palette that allows community members to quickly express their feelings about a particular post/reply/comment. Reactions will be expressed on a post like so: Click on a reaction that has already been expressed to add yourself to that reaction, or choose the plus icon to choose one of the other reactions.

Are you doing anything different in your community given the radical changes in our day to day lives recently? (COVID-19)

ST3/24/202:38 PM2 replies

Hi, Are you doing anything different in your community given the radical changes in our day to day lives recently? Our community is normally task-oriented and the task is creating great live musical performances. With the shutdowns - almost all of our members have had all their gigs canceled. This means three things. We have more time on our hands. There are significantly fewer practical applications for our products. Members have more time to explore our products (testing the limits,...

Membership management

Robert Nelson4/7/205:16 PM2 replies

Hello, I have some questions about membership management on Crowdstack, like does the platform offer something similar to like NationBuilder, or Wild Apricot? We're looking for ways to track our members, take fees, and be able to pull from our various social media like Facebook and MailChimp. I was directed to FeePod, but the price seemed exorbitant for us as a nonprofit. If there's a way we can set up a call to talk, that would be helpful as well. Thank you, Robert Nelson

Use Standard Emojis in your Crowdstack

Rosemary O'Neill4/16/191:40 PM0 replies

❤️

Crowdstack has pre-loaded Emoticons to use. But you can add new Emojicons (emojis) as well. First, choose which Emojis you want to use. Emojipedia is a good resource . If you're going to add a lot of Emojis, it will be handy to create a document where you've pasted the Emojis and the corresponding keystrokes so that you can just go back and forth copy/pasting. 😀 Grinning Face In your Crowdstack, click on Manage > Settings and in the Design category click on Emoticons.

Re: Don't Let Anyone Tell You You Can't

Ahhh now you caught my eye.. It all began for me with a mysterious invitation found while surfing the net. Something called Groupee (they could not even spell it right ) It was an invitation to put your name down for future participation in a new socialising medium. Some chap called Ted O'Neill sent a message back saying they were not ready yet but would be in touch. I forgot about it till they got in touch.. "Oh yeah that"... I for a penny in for a pound.

Re: Unlimited Paid Leave? Oh yes.

Reference: Sounds like a great system for o/c overachievers who have no other lives. Not at ALL true, donnarae! Ever since I've started working at Social Strata (10 years in May), I've heard about the necessary balance of life and work, and I've been encouraged to live outside of work. All of us have lives, some of us have small children and some have important parts to play in others' lives. There are no overachievers with no other lives here! This CAN work. In ANY company.

Re: Trust isn't Crazy

Rosemary O'Neill8/18/106:26 PM

LOL thanks Rexi! You guys already have some mandates about paid leave time anyway, right? I hadn't heard about Best Buy's recruiting concept regarding Twitter. Sounds like something that might have been a good idea to help evaluate whether the candidate is "social" or not, but that's kind of a random metric to pluck out of thin air. With all of the auto-followers and schemes out there, number of Twitter followers is too easy to game. If I wanted to hire "socially engaged" employees (and I...

Re: How to take your first steps into an online community

James The Jovial Jester10/26/102:03 PM

Useful beginners tips Rosemary. I can relate a little of my own experience here if you don't mind. ( notice the compliment and the almost apologetic way of stepping in Groupee was the first Bloggers site I had ever joined with confidence. It was the newness of the Social network on offer that gave me a feeling of belonging. Prior to that I could not "break the ice" anywhere else. I think blogging is easier than joining a forum. Unless the forum is very specific in it's nature. In a blog you...
