All things Webs is here as a place for us to discuss the Webs product and give people a sense for the use of our Apps and how they can work nicely together on a member-driven community site.  I've decided to make this an open blog.  Feel free to contribute your own entries, but be sure to only post useful entries with interesting content.  Product suggestions and other questions should be posted in the forum.

Site Manager Update LIVE!

Haroon Posted by Haroon at 06:20 PM on November 23, 2009 Comments comments (12)

The new site manager has been released!  With this release, we really wanted to streamline the editing experience and remove as much superfluous content as possible.  Here's some of the changes:

  • No more big app icons on the top of the site manager.  These are replaced with two simple buttons, one for adding a new page, and one for adding a new app.
    • We've also moved the function to add a link to navbar, inside the "add a page" popover

Minor updates for community management

Haroon Posted by Haroon at 05:42 PM on November 11, 2009 Comments comments (15)

We made a few tweaks that I want to discuss:


1) You can now delete members right from your site.  If you are logged in as the site owner, there is a new "delete member" link on your members' profiles.  You dont have to be in the sitebuilder anymore.


2) When a member is deleted, they can no longer rejoin the site immediately.  Instead, they will sit as a "pending member" until you approve them.


Thats it for nowsmile  W...

Hey all,


Wanted to inform you about some changes to our commenting system (used by several apps including guestbooks, blogs, photos, videos).  There are several new changes, including design changes, but the most important is a new "report as spam" function.  This appears when members are logged in and hover over a comment.  When a comment is reported, that information is stored in the database and will inform a new spam filter we are working on .  In add...
