Blog EntryCustom badge updates!Mar 28, '07 7:00 PM
for everyone
Not too long ago at all (just a couple weeks!) we introduced our brand-new Promote Your Site feature, allowing you to create a Multiply Badge. This made it possible (and easy) to build a small "badge"-type image containing as much or as little contact information from your profile as you wish. And once embedded in another website, it would also serve as a link back to your Multiply site, inviting those who see it to come check out your Multiply page.

Well, you now have the option to bring a little bit more of your Multiply account wherever you go on the Web, all within your badge.

Now when you go to create a new badge, the first thing you should decide is whether you want a simple image badge or a brand-new extra-spiffy Flash-based super-badge.

Seriously. Choose whichever you like.

But if you were to choose the newfangled Flash-based version, you also have the option of embedding some of your more recent posts directly into the badge! Choose from your latest photos, videos or blog entries. Then sit back and watch as the preview badge cycles through the content. Once you've got the badge just as you like it, copy the HTML from below and paste it anywhere on the Web where Flash is allowed. Or if it isn't allowed, perhaps the static image version will have to do.

Either way, to make or update your own badge, click the Promote My Site link on your homepage.

Note for Myspace and Friendster badge users: We've updated the special link you use to get friends from these sites to join you on Multiply. New links you generate will actually use a special version of this badge, the only difference being that users who click that badge will be offered the option of becoming your Multiply contact. Technically, this works the same way it has since we introduced the feature last December, but your new links will look much nicer!

To grab the most up-to-date version of the badge, click Invite followed by the link for the appropriate service.

Uh... automatically become your contact? Surely you don't mean that? :) Maybe you mean they'll be automatically offered the option of asking to become your contact?

it's a nice little gadget... but please give an instance of usage?

You would have to keep the "html" code in the copy buffer (clipboard) to use it when required, wouldn't you?

this is kinda offtopic but what happened to Search Content?...
tejasmidget wrote on Mar 29, '07
still there, at the top of the page. click search & it opens a new window. or just use this: http://multiply.com/search
tejasmidget wrote on Mar 29, '07, edited on Mar 29, '07
Are the links in the badges broken? Clicking on the flash content will take you there but click the headshots and the urls in the badges just re-opens this same post: http://multiply.multiply.com/journal/item/147?xurl=http%3A%2F%2Fx3ntrix%2Emultiply%2Ecom

It appears that some people think their badge isn't working in the flash format, but it seems to only work with content set to "everyone". Mine does not show any content set to contacts, etc :) Glad for that also!

"WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OLD SEARCH PAGE???"
you guys should bring it back, my life become so much easier with it
acorcoran wrote on Mar 30, '07
That is a great cross-promotional tool. I simply hope we don't see a lot of adult oriented pictures showing up on these badges, blurring the true atmosphere of Multiply.com.

Only public ("Everyone") content appears on these badges, and public porn isn't allowed on Multiply, so this would be a ToS violation. Here's a handy link in case you come across something of this type. :)

the old search page is back!

thank you!

Every time I try to make the badge, no html is visible. There appears to be no "create badge" option. Am I doing something wrong?
puma1504 wrote on Mar 31, '07

I don't get it. I go to "promote my site" and it says "create a multiply badge" but then nothing happens! There's no generate code button or anything like that, and the HTML Code box stays blank. Is it supposed to automatically create a HTML code or are we supposed to prompt it somehow, and if so, how??
rvincoletto wrote on Apr 12, '07
The Multiply is, for the most part of us that are members, the best blog's host service of the internet. But, the more content we publish here and more our page attracts interest of surfers in the net, more lack we feel of a resource that is fundamental in any blog page: the possibility of visitors to leave comments.

The intention of this poll is to know of you, member of the Multiply, how much an option to unlock comments for non-members makes lack in your page. Please, vote and if possible leaves a comment.

Go there and vote: http://studioz.multiply.com/journal/item/877

The old is better. The new one needs to be improved. Add-ons should be for improvements not backwards.
