I'm interested in this, as well. I'm a, "newbie", here at socialgo - moving over from webs - *shudder*. Really excited to be here, but I'm hoping to find just a little more ways to customise - both for member profiles & for groups.

The html widget would be just the thing for profiles, but when I've tried to add it in the, "Layout Manager", it shows as, "not rendered", or something like that. ?

As far as groups - is there a way we can add videos and blogs?

Also, is it possible to add descriptions at all to our photos?

I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong area. There are so many Forums for Support, I'm confused as to where to go! lol If I am, in fact, in the wrong place, please point me in the right direction & I'll be sure to go there in the future.

Thanks so much! Wink

The html widget is for an admin to put code into. It will not allow a user to embed content. This is a highly requested feature that will prolly come down the pipeline.

We need the text box for groups and personal pages. Members can't use our site to provide their sites with quality links. They really dont care to have a personal page that don't do anything other than allow comments that others can advertise on their page and not be able to advertise themselves.

Oh, also members should be able to put their website address in right from the sign up page. I can put a "What is your Website" question but long erls stick out way too far and look tacky and it don't allow them to put any html so that the link says joe's site instead of http://joe'ssite.com

Any updates on this?
This is a very useful feature of that "other" network along with "my page" personalization that my users will miss coming over

Hey All,

Thanks for the feedback. I know you've heard this before, and I'm sorry to say it again, but this is in the works and should be a part of your networks soon. I cannot give a date in fairness, but please be assured this is not a request that has been swept under rug or forgotten - we realize how important it is to all of you, and this is something we'd like to see ourselves sooner rather than later! When I hear more information about this, I will come back to this thread to update.

Thanks for your time, and your patience is always appreciated and feedback most welcome.
