Pierre Lannoy replied to David Carr's discussion 'Searching for Content on a Ning Network'"The standard search engine is not very performant. You can integrate a custom Google Search in your network. I've done this on my networks and its use has jumped more than 400% and user feedback is excellent ....
You can really customize…"
Peter Matthews replied to David Carr's discussion 'Searching for Content on a Ning Network'"In the main forums, we can search messages across all forum categories, or we can go into a particular forum category, and search all messages in that forum.
How this works depends on how you set up forums and forum categories in your…"
Sandra replied to David Carr's discussion 'Like Button for a Comment'"Hi TJ,

"Thanks Gusk ... I don't think you answered my question ... (example) if you were a member of my network and posted a new discussion I'd like for your discussion to be automatically shared by email with every member of the network ...…"
Gusk replied to David Carr's discussion 'Notification when new Discussions & Blogs are posted'"Discussion yes, not blogs as far as I know. It's the 'follow' link at the bottom of the forum home page.
I subscribe to it so I can see what's new but I find it switches itself off often. Like today it seems to have gone again."
Louise Orders replied to David Carr's discussion 'Paid Access Changes / Enhancements'"sooooo - what did you do? I've done this also. What's the next step?
Do I need to deactivate Paid Access and then re-activate?
Or start a new network and invite everyone over to the new one?

"I have one group that is behind a pay wall. It contains about 30 articles. I have 45 people who subscribe to the service but only 18 of them did so online, ie paid using paid access to access the group. The rest insisted on an invoice and bank…"
"How many members were on your site when you decided to go paid access SP?"
NC for HireSweetPotato replied to David Carr's discussion 'Just a guess on the # of Ning Networks and the % that are paid access'
"My gut feeling is that Ning paid access has not worked out as Ning expected it to. This is not Ning's fault. It is extremely hard to monetize a website. It's even harder to monetize a website by offering something that people will pay for,…"

Col replied to David Carr's discussion 'Like Button for a Comment'"I think you should strongly consider it. "Likes" help to improve the quality of the discourse in a forum situation because it encourages people to make valuable contributions. Reddit has clearly shown how an upvote/downvote system makes it…"
