The Multiply Blog

for everyone

We thought you might be interested in knowing ahead of time that we have some maintenance work to do, planned for early this coming Sunday (January 6).

The maintenance, while minor, will cause a little bit of downtime. It's expected to begin around 2 am U.S. ET (in your time zone, that's...), but shouldn't really last that long, at all. We're just going to be moving some stuff around.

Your patience and understanding, as always... are great. Awesome, in fact!

It's 12.30 pm here - doesn't matter. They cut my electricity at 1 on Sundays anyway. You'll be back when the power is.

How's about putting the notices a little higher up so people don't have to scroll almost to the bottom of the page to see these messages??

Hey, are we able to add animated graphics to our home page like over an existing picture? I have a picture of the Bee Gees and want to add colorful falling stars over it on my home page, can this be done and if so can someone tell me how PLEASE.
Thanks

cwhunbun wrote on Jan 5

You guys are great to let us know ...

buddhalove wrote on Jan 5

fyi- i loooove multiply. some people complain that it's slow, but i'm pretty sure those people are using firefox....(my friends that say that do anyway)... firefox is like internet explorer 10 years ago....it blows. uninstall your firefox and multiply will be super-duper fast.

that's 3pm at my local time.. thank God i'm not online at that time.... :-)

enchantedone wrote on Jan 5

Thanks so much! Hopefully this update won't result in the problems the last one did - with people not having access to their pages. *keeping fingers crossed*

Thanks, I hope the maintenance will enable me to upload more things to my site which currently does not seem to be working.

butterfllytata wrote on Jan 5

i thought i posted one here to say thank you I dont see it,hmm

butterfllytata wrote on Jan 5

was wondering if you might someday add a way to delete comments more than one at a time?

skyllo01 wrote on Jan 5

haha! just kidding...

oryon81 wrote on Jan 5

just wanted to ask.. how come the music search was removed?

canadianbella wrote on Jan 5

Thank you for the notice. Also, as one said below hope that soon we will be able to delete more then one comment at a time. Its becoming a pain having to delete one by one & going back & forth to do so, got to be an easier way. I enjoy using this site but that is the one & only think I'm not pleased about. BTW really love the audio reply, its so nice hearing what my friends sound like. Good day.

deniseweller wrote on Jan 5, edited on Jan 5

:<) I'll be sleeping at 5AM, but thanks for the warning. My contacts usually get hysterical. I'll link this blog.
Thanks, again.

i've got firefox and it's fast. maybe your friends' connection's bad.

anyway,

thanks for the note. it would be better tho if you have a notification bar on the topmost portion of the inbox for downtimes because sometimes we dont notice the staffblogs.

TY for the heads up on the maintenance. Hey I agree with others that have commented. I have asked for this a couple times since joining Multiply but still haven't seen it. Page gets slow and the more comments I get with graphics in them the slower the page takes to load. So pls bring in a feature so that we can delete our comments more then one at a time. That would make Multiply ever greater then it is now. Thnx
