    Forum topics listing pages don't pick up formatting used on replies
    El Loro4 replies
    Minor observation. Forum topics listing pages don't pick up formatting used on replies such as pale text color used to hide spoilers. Assuming that the default of the latest 3 replies is used, this can be dealt with by posting dummy replies after the reply which has used the formatting. I'll demonstrate this by posting such a reply on this topic. The Discussion listing page will show the text that I've formatted in the following reply. I will, once this has been approved.

    Some Customer Support Processing Changes
    Ted @ Crowdstack0 replies
    ❤️💯
    Hey everyone- We've made a couple of changes to the way that our customer support system works. 1. All customer support tickets are now always private. That means that only the person that created the ticket and our support staff can see each ticket. This way, no one ever has to worry about private details about their sites being made visible to the world. 2. Because those customer support tickets are always private now, we disabled the "suggestions" option in the Customer Support area.

    Popup Actions for Milestone Events
    Rich Melvin0 replies
    💯👍
    Would it be possible for you to add a Popup Action in the Automation Rules? This could be handy in many situations: Acknowledging a posting milestone (a member's 100th post, his 500th post, etc.) These would be a good opportunity to build member pride and loyalty via a "Congratulations!" popup. Notices on New Content about threads being started in the correct sub-forum. The setup should allow for us to author different popups for different purposes.

    More Info in the RECENT POSTS Widget

    ❤️
    We are trying to bring a bit more organization to our various model train forums. We are experiencing a lot of threads started in the wrong forums. One of our members made a good suggestion I want to run by you. Currently the RECENT POSTS widget displays the thread title and the timestamp of the latest post to the thread. It does not display the specific forum where the thread is posted. Can that be added to the listings? It could look like this: The red text is the name of the forum where...

    Add Convenient Permissions Notes to Forum Topics View in Control Panel
    neil2 replies
    👍
    It would be really convenient to have some "at a glance" shorthand "Permission Notes" in the CP's Forum Topics View showing Who Can View Subject/View Content/Post/Reply --without having to open each one. Invariably we think a permission is set a certain way for something and it's not. Put the shorthand "permission" notes in the wide-open space between the forum's name and the trashcan in a tiny font. ourURL/cp/forum-structure Shorthand examples: View Subj: All; Content: Spec Roles; Reply:...

    Suggestion About Participation in Forum Threads
    Rich Melvin1 reply
    👀
    I'm suggesting that there should be a way to indicate to a member if has already posted in a specific thread. Some of the threads on our forum have very long legs. Many are several years old, but remain active with new ideas and photos posted in the threads daily. The record-holder is THIS THREAD which was started in January 2013 and is now 987 pages long! It still has new content posted in it every day. Threads that grow beyond a few pages become very difficult to search. If a member could...

    Re: 5 Potential COPPA Changes that May Affect You

    Hi Rosemary, Thanks for the COPPA update. Can you call out the cavalry on the eve question shark forum? There are a bunch of us whose entire websites and forums have been down for an hour without response from social strata. Thanks so much.

    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: 6 Key Questions to Answer Before Starting Your Online Community
    LittleOddMe
    Excellent points and great thoughts to consider before starting an online community. An addition to 1: How do my forum users define success, and is this congruent with my definition? What is their baseline for success, and what factors will cause them to consider the community a failure?

    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...

    Using Crowdstack Blog to publish a club magazine?
    John in Houston1 reply
    ❤️
    Folks, is anyone in the Crowdstack community using the "blog" feature to deliver a digital magazine? If so, how did you set that up and implement it? We have used Crowdstack for years to deliver a private discussion forum to our 6,000 club members. We already produce a bi-monthly printed magazine. We would like to: Copy and paste the text and images from the magazine into categorized, dated and tagged posts. Automatically deliver a bimonthly summary of all articles/posts since the previous...

    Re: Hoop.la Update: Google Fonts, Reply With Quote, Censor List and more
    Peter_RN
    Hello Could you please explain just how the new ‘multi quote’ function can be used when you wish to quote from a previous page, as well as the current page? This is often the case especially when a new page has only one or two post on it. I know that you can post a quote from a previous page; we need to be able to quote from more than one page. Having the posting page tied to the current page (crazy) prevents me from being able to do this as the first quote selected cannot survive the page...

    Bandwidth is surely very cheep these days and I am reluctant to pay a premium OR lose my SEO. Could you please tell me what my monthly charge will now be without it? Thank you.

    Re: The Bad Robot Release
    Ted @ Crowdstack
    All of our plans include unlimited bandwidth, so that is a non issue. I'm not sure what cost you are referring to, since nothing I described in this blog requires a cost of any kind. Both new features are free. For further questions about your particular account, please post to our support site: http://socialstrata,com/support Thanks and have a great weekend!

    I could have sworn I was told that I have to pay a charge for excess visitors or bandwidth of some kind? It was going to appear on my bill but you said you would hold off the charges until the new feature was released and then give me the choice of the extra charges or limit the BOTS. This is really confusing. Can you confirm then that my site will have no additional charges if I DONT limit the bots on my site?

    "If your billable page views are getting close to your plan limit, this option may come in handy." - THERE! So what are billable page views if its not linked to bandwidth?
  • Blog Post Comment
    Re: The Bad Robot Release
    Ted @ Crowdstack
    Hi Richard- Your plan has a billable page view limit (not a bandwidth limit). And if you exceed your billable page views, you will incur charges. Thus, if you are close to exceeding your account's limit, then you may want to consider using the throttling option. For questions about your specific account, please post to our support area.

    Re: The Advanced Reporting Release
    Julia M Usher
    Great stuff. One question: In the Activity Point formula, there's a reference to points earned for the author having a post on a support topic "marked as best answer." Can one enable this "best answer" feature in their own community forums? If so, how? I can't seem to locate this option on Hoop.la. Thanks.

    Hey Julia, Your site should not be seeing that activity event. It should go away in a future release. Sorry for any confusion that may have caused you.

    Re: The Advanced Reporting Release
    Ted @ Crowdstack
    Just to clarify what Jonmark said... the "mark as best answer" action is a feature in QuestionShark, our customer support product/module. Thus, sites that do not have QuestionShark enabled will never have that option available.

    Hello , I am excited about the news. Would like to be a tester. I have sub communities. would this feature remain? Very good news and thanks for sharing.

    Hi Margarita- You'll be on our beta/upgrade server when it is available... and we'll notify you when that happens, of course. We will still be supporting groups (which is what I think you were referring to). Not planning to drop any features.

    Hi Ted, do you have an update on the estimated launch for beta testing? I vaguely recall an August projection, so I thought I'd check.

    Re: Creating Content is Simpler I am really hoping that you all include in this update a way to move a post to add it as a reply to an existing post. With this "simpler" way of posting, I'm forecasting our users will probably post in the wrong spot. (We've got a lot of possible forums and topics and posts.) -- Carol
