This feels like it's an issue. I'm not sure it's related, but our Alexa profile and google pages crawled numbers seem totally wonky...usually in the 5,000 range. We have 17000 members and thousands…Continue

We're constantly being asked when a member joined, and what number they were. As we announce milestones (just welcomed our 17,000th member) everyone wants to know where they fit in. Right now, that…Continue

Round Up From SXSW For Creators

Posted on March 19, 2010 at 6:00pm 3 Comments 0 Favorites

Hey guys! So I was one of the lucky winners to spend some time with Ning down in Austin, and I just wanted to drop in to give some feedback from the perspective of Creators.

SXSW is billed as a Tech Conference, but it's really a Festival. I think what that means to Creators is the following...

This is aimed towards those who are interested in making money via your network, and feel ready to do… Continue

I went to your site and think the concept is great; noticed the Feedback Tab. I tried to integrate GetSatisfaction myself but was unsuccessful. How did you do it?

Thanks,

Kevin

There's not a way for users to delete photos from our servers. You can delete them from your network, and they won't appear anywhere. However, they will still be available at that URL. Additionally, they shouldn't be found in Google search results either.

This is pretty standard functionality these days. Here's a photo I already deleted from Facebook:

If this is still an issue for you, feel free to follow up with the Help Center if you an issue with this policy. They can probably provide more details on why this behaves this way.

I just checked, and this does work. The problem might be that members have customized their layouts, so their using their own CSS now. What you can try is going to your Manage-Analytics box and adding:

If you do that it will load on all pages, no matter what.

I followed up with you directly via the Help Center a few weeks ago, after your post on Get Satisfaction. Did you receive my response?

I have seen your site before though, a few months ago, because one of the filipina-american bloggers I follow has your network badge on her site. Of course, when i recognized it was NING in origin, I clicked it immediately.
