    Thanks for the updates Ted and crew. Regarding: "Extract Improvement: we now filter out quoted text from content extracts to make the extracts more readable." Can you explain this one a little more?

    Hi @neil ! That just means that when Hoop.la generates automated extracts of posts (e.g. for showing recent replies in the topic list), Hoop.la will now strip out any quoted text (i.e. text in a blockquote ). This will give more focus to the actual post/reply/comment that was made.

    Hi Ted, I'm guessing this is not possible, but it would be great if we could use Circles to apply the GDPR settings only to members to whom it applies. As it stands, we're telling clients in Europe that they will have to drop membership if they want these features, because we are not willing to enable these restrictions for everyone when less than 1% of our clients are in Europe. If we had the ability to have a Europe Circle, and only enable this for them, that would be ideal. Thanks, Mary

    Hi @MHK@CS2 , there's currently no way to set permissions up or use recipes as you've described. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not even sure that approach would work from a GDPR perspective. You would technically need to identify members by first collecting some information about them in order to determine whether to give them the "GDPR treatment" or not. I'm not sure that would pass muster. It's definitely an interesting idea, so you could always suggest it separately in the support section of...

    Hi Brian, I understand what you're saying. We're in a different situation than most of your clients, I believe. Our community is 100% business related; all members are paying clients and they engage us to provide jurisdiction-specific regulatory information. Members cannot join our community on their own - they have to execute a contract for our services first, which includes agreeing to our terms of use of the community. Our members are chief compliance officers of (highly regulated)...

    My best recommendation would be to consult a lawyer about what your GDPR requirements are. If you are not doing business in the EU or directly marketing to users in the EU, you may not need to comply. You also might consider your specific workflow. If these users are doing direct business with you, you could make it clear in your separate onboarding / contracting process that their personal information will need to be used in your internal system (Hoop.la) as a contingency of being a...

    Agreed - we are working with a law firm on this. If ‎they have anything interesting to add I will let you know!

    Re: The Miscellaneous UI Release

    Hi Lhisa, Hoop.la doesn't do any checks based on IP address that would prevent you from sending a dialog to another user. Users can choose to prevent others from sending them dialogs, however (assuming you are talking about dialogs). Thus, the new feature that allows you to register users through the control panel should behave the same way. The only difference is that you will not be logged in as the new user (as you would have previously). Without knowing exactly what error you're getting,...

    No, I wasn't blocked. I just noticed that in the past if I signed up as a new member under my IP address on my hoop.la site using a different email address as a test member, I could not send a dialog to that test member & I attributed that to having the same IP since I was also the Admin because the system shows the registration IP & the last IP used to login. If the system however is not wired to see that as a conflict, then something else was blocking my ability to receive a dialog...

    Re: The @Mentions Release

    Mentions will be of good use, and is a more efficient way to address someone directly in a mass discussion then traditional 'quoting' which basically just copies text and formats it in a block. Also, usernames in profile URL's are pretty significant for search engines. As people are searching on these names and so your community may pop up in even more searches as long as that username is a big name in a respective community. This is also why Google, Facebook, and Twitter started supporting...
