Hi Folks!

We’re continuing to listen to your requests, and below you will find a list of the fixes and improvements that we’re working on for the next site update:

- You will be able to add photos to journals and discussion posts.

- You will be able to update your profile status message.

- There will be improvements to the tool used to upload avatars and cover photos (ex: image cropping).

- The feeds and also the list of discussions in a group will display the username of the member who added the latest reply, as well as the date of the last reply. Ex: “Last Reply By: TeamDS 22 days ago”.

- The line spacing in discussion posts and journal entries will be reduced, making it easier to view the body of a post.

- The newsfeed will only show content from Community Groups which are listed in the directory of groups.

- When other members view your profile they will only see activity from the listed groups you’ve joined.

- The intermittent issue some members have experienced where nothing happens when you click a button to post a topic or reply should be fixed.

- The font color for the links in your profile activity feed will be changed from the default text color, which should make it easier to determine what content is a link and what content is plain text.

- The notification count located by your avatar (top right side of page) will include new private messages you receive.

- Profile pages for closed accounts will only show a username, default cover photo, default silhouette avatar, and a message stating that the account does not exist.

- The site’s favicon (website and bookmark icon) will have the DS logo.

This is a larger site update than the previous few updates, so we have yet to schedule a release date. We’ll post again when we have a good estimate of when the site update will be released.

We hope everyone is having a wonderful week!

-TeamDS

They will probably come out with what is up next once these fixes are on... I know DS is reading what members want and care about these things a lot

Thanks for the improvements-may I just say chat is my favourite way to make friends - to get and give support. One day....

@dinahmorris, we had chat at one time so I doubt it would return

Thanks DS for the update. I appreciate the ' fixes' and I swear I'm not complaining, but I sure do wish ( BIG TIME SURE DO WISH ) that the founders of members groups had the ability to send ' group messages' to all members. I have a football group and we pick the games every week and it really helped that I could send 'reminder' messages out each week. I'm sure that's not a big deal, but I fear it's going to affect my group because alot of members relied on those reminders. *sigh* Oh well, guess they're gonna have to remember on their own without momma founder reminding them.. ha

I think the extreme design change compounded the distress with the overwhelming lack of basic and key functionality in this new platform has made the majority of the users beyond frustrated. I'm sure the DS Team had to have anticipated the negative feedback would be heavy and that the general user's patience would wane as time has gone by. I think the key functionality of the new site should have been a priority and then make gradual changes visually. There should also have been a Q&A discussion forum with a dedicated DS Team member(s) to answer users basic inquiries. I'm sure the DS Team is doing the best they can but they need to ensure that they're communicating with the users as much as possible.

Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

They'll get there, it's getting easier every day. This was a major undertaking; there were bound to be some problems.

Also can we have square avatars instead of round? There is writing on mine and by making it round, you cut off part of the writing so it doesn't make sense. Also, can we use avatars photos with movement? I downloaded a ton of them just for DS when we were back at the old site. Thankyou for what you have done so far.

God Bless

I too, would appreciate the return of "group hugs" for founders. It was a great way to get interest in groups going if it seemed to be falling of. This is selfish, I know. But, needed by other groups obviously.

Thank you for the updates. i'm so glad, and thankful i'm now able to log in, without getting a password reset link. many special thanks, and appreciation. :)

So mad at Xfinity! They're trying to charge me $115 per month for the same service I had been paying $50 the last four years. I took the equipment to UPS for shipping and cancelled my subscription today! Next door was a cookie shop called Crumbl. I had heard of it before but never went in until today. I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...

Which explains the mysterious fevers and my extra fatigue. I'm so glad I pushed for answers.
