User Privacy Settings Don't Seem to Have Right Descriptions
Using Jamroom
davej56:Sure do. But my system isn't working that way. You can't find the person on the list of artists or members.
Correct - like I have said above they WILL NOT show in lists or search - no where on the site unless you go directly to their
profile URL. This is how it works right now.
Quote: I tried the URL on mine, and I get "Not Found."
That's what you will get if the profile is Private. If the Profile is SHARED then you should see the follower option (as long as followers are enabled).
Quote:Do you really want users to have to use a URL to find a profile? They'll never figure that out.
Yes - that is exactly what they have to do RIGHT NOW. Like I mentioned above we can look into a "Shared and Discoverable" option for a future release, but I want you to understand how it works right now.
Just to be re-iterate - a profile that is set to "Shared" privacy will not:
- show up in search
- show up in lists
- show up on ANY page on your site
the only way you will find them is to enter the direct URL to their profile.
I know you don't want that, so again - we will look into alternate options for this in a future release. Since they are handled at a very low, core level it's not something I can do in 5 minutes.
Let me know if that helps.
Thanks!
