Blog EntryNew 3.0 features: Streamlined settingsNov 15, '06 7:34 PM
for everyone
Now that our big 3.0 launch is out of the way, we'd like to discuss some of our new features a little bit more in the coming days. We planned to start off with the My Multiply page -- the place to see everything shared in your network.

But before we do that, we wanted to address some of the comments we've seen on our latest blog announcing the launch. In particular, there have been lots of questions about the new Settings page. There are definitely fewer options on that page now than there were before, but that doesn't mean we've removed anything.

Below, you'll see what our Settings page used to look like. You could call it a 'one stop shop' for tweaking your account's settings -- unless the setting you wanted to use wasn't one of those listed on that page.

So we had another idea.

Below, you'll find our new, streamlined Settings page.

(Or at least an approximation thereof. Have a look at the real thing here.)


So maybe you're wondering what happened to Themes, Page Titles & Layout and Custom CSS. Don't worry, they're safe. In fact, they're where one would probably expect them to have to been in the first place. (Hint: go to your site and click Customize. They're all there.) To change your site title... just move your mouse over it and click. Then type. It's that easy. Your Profile settings? Go to your... profile... and click the aptly-titled... Edit Profile.

In short, you still have as much ability to customize Multiply as you ever have. We've just put the options for doing so where they make the most sense.

Side note: One sticky point when it comes to making any change to a long-running service like Multiply -- is that it may take a little time to get used to. We make these changes with the best of intentions -- we're certainly not trying to make Multiply more confusing or harder to use. We're always looking to improve the service and, all things considered, we think we've done just this.
