PoisedGuru Status Report 29 Sept. 2006

PoisedGuru Status Report 29 Sept. 2006

Hi everyone!

So the new site is FINALLY here. We worked on it all day to get it ready. But we know there are still minor things that will pop up and look out of place or not display right. So I wanted to ask you all to be sure to message me about anything you see that doesn't work right.

For those of you that haven't seen it I wrote a somewhat lengthy look at How to Optimize your Xombytes for Adsense. I hope it helps. Google is usually tight-lipped about their algorithms so I had to glean the information from a stack of archaic tomes and intentionally vague references from their help center. ;)

Have a great weekend!

OK, got it now (search), thanks.

Maybe Search and the items above should be in the same color or in a box or otherwise grouped to show they belong together ... they don't seem connected at all.

You click above it.

Like the Xombytes, tags, users, categories.

Click to Search doesn't work on Mac

On both Firefox and Safari, nothing happens when I click on the search area.

IM options and more

The IM options are to read and delete the message or to delete it and send confirmation that you received it. It is feasible that someone might logoff before you get the IM sent to them. In that case they will be notified of the message when they return and if they wish to they can then send confirmation that they received it. I will look into getting it moved somewhere more convenient. There is an issue with paragraph breaks that we are looking at still. Poised Guru Xomba Moderator

Oh, I see it now! Thanks.

The actual "click to search" part is in gray text and blends in somewhat, so I missed it. One other thing I'm wondering about: what's the usefulness of those "delete/delete & send confirmation" messages that appear AT THE TOP of the screen, when the Instant Message box is TOWARD THE BOTTOM (left side)? I wanted to try it out, just to see if it's now functioning like a little chatbox. The person I sent the IM to is also confused about the reason for those "delete/delete & send confirmation" messages we get when someone IMs us. One improvement would be to have one area (like where it is, bottom left) where we can send and receive messages quickly (like in Gmail). (Also, the paragraph breaks in the comment box don't appear to be working anymore--at least not for this comment.)

At the very top of the center panel there is a "click to search" icon. Just above that are four options. Choose what you want to search Xombytes, Tags, Users or Categories and you will be taken to the appropriate page. :) Poised Guru Xomba Moderator

Where'd the search bar go...?

Re: What is this delicious orange-creamy new world

It's a Xomba Creamsicle. Tangy and fruity on the outside, smooth creamy vanilla filling inside. Like a fresh blast of summer (but don't go wearing white shoes; it's after Labor Day).

Yeah, I can understand,

you guys have been putting in long hours to get the new site up. Works fine and really looks good... hope you all get some time off to relax, however short it may be.
