Blog EntryNew message board view (plus update!)May 4, '07 12:06 PM
for everyone
This is the Multiply message board, in compact mode. In case you haven't noticed, we've introduced a new way to view posts from your Multiply network on your message board. And that's not all -- we've improved an old way as well.

The new: "Compact" mode

Compact mode won't help you get extra posts per page on your message board (you can still choose from 5, 100, or a number in between in any view mode), but it will give you your posts in a much smaller space.

Everything important is still available -- from the content type icons on the left to the (unread) reply count on the right. And, of course, everything in between.

If the column of three icons that appears on the far right side of the message pictured here looks unfamiliar to you, you haven't enabled the "Subscribe," "Pin," and "Remove" icons that we featured way back last year. Any why not; it adds great functionality to your message board!



This are the Table view options for your Multiply message board.The old-but-new: More "Table" mode options

Table mode is certainly one of the more flexible ways to view your message board.

And now, we've moved the view options for Table mode back to the message board Preferences page... right where you'd expect to find them. Add or remove as many of the optional table columns, pictured at right, as you like, to make your message board as informative -- or as minimalistic -- as you'd like!



So there you have it; now you've got more options for using your message board to keep up with your network... just the way you like it.

WOW
THANK U !
arvinlexter wrote on May 4, '07
thanks :) these are great new features!!! but i use "full entries" most of the time =p

suggestion: wouldn't it be cool if we can get a list on the right column with all the latest comments we've received instead of getting an email or having to go to the page to read it. lol maybe thats too much =p hmmm thats on my wishlist =D

Q: How come there's another bit of advertisement just right beneath "Guestbook"? It's so wide, it stretches the whole thing and makes the themes all wonky and ugly!
cawamelcwizzle wrote on May 4, '07
There are new ads on every page.. everywhere... aaaah! lol.
dantcer wrote on May 4, '07
I love options! :D

u can move or hide or edit the guestbook..
dantcer wrote on May 4, '07
I can't find the ads that she is talking about (under the guestbook)?? Does she mean at the bottom of the page and not just in the right rail?

Previously paid users don't see ads.
dantcer wrote on May 5, '07
I'm not a previous paid users. And I see ads when I turn off one of my software programs. But I can't find those particular ads she was talking about :/
dantcer wrote on May 5, '07
Wow... I really like the table view and all the options that go along with it!

yeah. it's intrusive. :\
cheddaralmighty wrote on May 5, '07
Ads by Google!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRR. Is it not enough to have those on the side ONLY? Hehe its pretty annoying

I mean like this:

The one right beneath where it says "Guestbook" (Leave a Message in your case):


The one right before the start of the comments on blog and photo pages:


All those screenshots are from your Multiply pages. If you can't see them, good for you =p

ah this is awesome!

A glitch? I don't see these ads anywhere.

freakychiq808 wrote on May 5, '07

Hmmm... I know my security software blocks my seeing ads in the right rail but I never knew there were any in those other places either.

When I turn off my security software, I can then see the ads in the right rail, but still can't see the other ones you did a screenshot of. So there must be some other ad blocker I have that may be catching those.

i have a question... its sort of irrelevant, but now, when you search for something, the format is different when the results are displayed. i like the old format better...
stjohnsparkmusicroom wrote on May 5, '07
why am i only getting a GUESTBOOK advert when i open multiply. I can't get to my site. annoying!!
stjohnsparkmusicroom wrote on May 5, '07
ALSO...GO BACK to the old search pages. The google ad infested ones are frustarting and also you have done something with the headers so its harder to find what you are actually looking for. PLEASE UNCLUTTER THE SEARCH pages......

can i request one additonal feature? a multiple remove option for the post made by my contacts that i do not wish to see updates for. removing each post one-by-one is quite a chore ;)
beabernardo wrote on May 6, '07, edited on May 6, '07
how come i don't see the new compact mode? and i agree about the ads, they're annoying and they mess up my page.

YES! Please! There are waaay too many (I'm sorry) junk posts that show up on my bulletin board sometimes and it's tiring deleting them one by one. Maybe a nice CHECKBOX right before each item on the message board to select the posts you want to mass-delete?

I'm not demanding okay =p Just seconding the suggestion..
davidus wrote on May 6, '07
i'm having problem with showing all my Groups in my website. when I click EDIT, it says I can select up to 12 groups. but only 4 groups with click boxes appear. please help. thanks.
wendyclear wrote on May 6, '07
Hey guys! Excellent job on all the new features. I have a suggestion, though, for another one: how about another way to re-arrange your photo albums? I'd love a feature that would let me do it by album name instead of by the first picture. It could get really confusing when you have about 200 albums, haha.

Anyways, keep up the good work! Thanks a lot for Multiply.

cawamelcwizzle wrote on May 7, '07
Is it just me or has Multiply DELETED ALL Guestbook entries on all accounts?
quey05 wrote on May 7, '07

Bring back the old search...the google search sucks.
carmelaguevara wrote on May 13, '07
YEAH, BRING BACK THE OLD SEARCH! the old search was much simpler and easier.

and here's a question.

How and where can you find out how long one of your contacts (including myself) has been a Multiply member? Is there someplace where I can find out how long my contacts have been using Multiply? Thanks and bring back the old search! :)
pennylanechic wrote on May 14, '07

This may mean a new Compact mode for you but the other "innovation" - that stupid Guestbook -
means my e-mail is clogged up with other poeple's stupid guestbook comments. How damned daft can you get? Give me choice to accept Guestbook comments or Block them, PLEASE!!!!

I wish one could filter your My Multiply page not to show posts I'm not interested in, like the new music that's posted. It causes real info to "fall off" too quickly. Even different language posts. I can't read Spanish, so why can't I cut out those notices?
