I have been asking this question over and over and I am hoping someone can answer me. Will Ning 3.0 have member pages that can be personalized, like they can now on 2.0? This is a very important…Continue

Perrie Halpern replied to Shannon's discussion 'VOTE - NING 2.0 or NING 3.0'"They don't have forums and they don't have groups ( from what I could see) and I need this for my group. I am not happy where Ning is going and I am looking into alternatives, if things are as really bad as they seem. The only good thing…"
Perrie Halpern replied to Shannon's discussion 'VOTE - NING 2.0 or NING 3.0'"They are nice platforms but they are not for social networks. "
Perrie Halpern replied to Shannon's discussion 'VOTE - NING 2.0 or NING 3.0'"Wish I could, but my site has migrated from another site (Newsvine) where they have just gone through this trauma, and if they even think that this might happen again, they will freak out.
I did sign the petition. "
Perrie Halpern replied to Shannon's discussion 'VOTE - NING 2.0 or NING 3.0'"Late to the party again, but 2.0... but I have to say not because I don't like change. I don't like change that is taking away some of the best features of 2.0 like the personal pages, the white label and a huge increase in price.

Corey replied to Perrie Halpern's discussion 'Problem with Facebook Like button intergration'"Hi Perrie,
If you are using the Like Button plug in, you will want to fill out the area that looks like this and then select "Get Code". This will give you two codes that you will want to place in a HTML/text box. Save…"
Perrie Halpern replied to Perrie Halpern's discussion 'Problem with Facebook Like button intergration'"Hi Corey,
I have tried to use the work around but they don't seem to work. Maybe I am doing it wrong. First, which do I use HTML5, XFMBL, IFRAME or URL and where do I place the two pieces of code?
Thanks!
Perrie"
Corey replied to Perrie Halpern's discussion 'Problem with Facebook Like button intergration'"Hi Perrie,
You are surely correct that this is a platform wide issue. After some investigation by our engineers, it looks like this issue is due to how Facebook is handling Facebook Like button requests. You can find more information about this…"
Perrie Halpern replied to Allison Leahy's discussion 'Changes to Ning 3.0 Based on Your Feedback'"OK I am unclear about this. Will our members not be able to post videos in comments and in discussions anymore?"
Perrie Halpern replied to PeruCool's discussion 'Alternatives to Ning social network'"Why Oxwall and not Buddypress?"
Perrie Halpern replied to PeruCool's discussion 'Alternatives to Ning social network'"Hi Tat,
This is true. This owners group is second to none. It's what I have been looking at, too. I have only found that Buddypress has a really good community, but their platform takes being a genius to use. Nothing intuitive about…"
Perrie Halpern replied to PeruCool's discussion 'Alternatives to Ning social network'"You know how I feel Anthony. Great post!"
Perrie Halpern replied to PeruCool's discussion 'Alternatives to Ning social network'"Don't do it Strumelia! I almost went with them, but when ever I ran into an issue, I got a very friendly, "Sorry but we can't help you with that at this time". I tried a 2 month test, with most of my group using the system....…"
Perrie Halpern replied to PeruCool's discussion 'Alternatives to Ning social network'"LOL! Don't hold your breath. I was told that 1.5 years ago. "

AnGella said… I do not have it running yet, with a three month old my time is so limited right now, another reason this is upsetting to me. Here is a site I am on that is using it right now. Looks like they will be switching to a new platform though:
My blogs on this site:

So although you can not style your profile, the blog is styled.

Since most of our content is already on Wordpress, we may try this out: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress/
It seems to have all the features of Ning 3.0 at a lower operating cost and more features that can be added.
