There's now a feature so you can make your profile comments private to read for non-friends, so I was wondering if someone could just go here and tell me if they can see my comments? I don't have the widget still on my profile so I wasn't sure if it would still work or if I'd have to keep it on there :x
I can still see your comments x: So I guess the feature isn't working properly yet...
Would you mind trying again? I added the widget and just set it to display 0 comments. Not ideal but I was afraid it wouldn't work without it :P
Not at all! Did you -just- do it, though? I can still see them, but idk it could be a matter of cache catching up... (although I think it's just broken D: )!
Hmm :/ Yeah I just did before I posted, alright thanks a ton though! c: It's not a big deal since as far as I know I don't get a lot of people snooping through my comments so I suppose it can wait until they get it working c:
I'm going to leave this tab open (I'm waiting on a timer for the crystal shop ;-; so sad when you need more than one thing... /sobs) so I can check again in a few minutes, but yeah I think a fix will be needed there x: lets hope it wont be as hard as fixing pings
Out of curiosity, where is this option? I took a quick look earlier and couldn't find it, I'm sure I missed something, haha xD
I had to do some digging for it too xD It's in the Edit your Profile thing, the Comments widget. You can choose how many comments to display and there's a checkbox to hide them from non friends.
...that is indeed hard to find o.o Thank you! (also I just checked it again and nope, still visible from the URL, so it's probably not the cache :c )
Huh. That's really weird because I found out about it through tumblr, on a post that included a link to a screenie where someone got an error for it .. So I don't know what broke on it since then but it's weird ..
Same! On that post's comments everyone looks confused though, so I take it most people can't get the option to work for them... if it hadn't been an anon post I'd totally ask whose comments they were trying to see when they got that, just out of curiosity XD
Edit: Ooh ok so Riptide got it! I hadn't tried the second page ;-;
@ Blanche Ah, that's true. And there were a lot of people who weren't able to find it in the first place :x
[edit] I wanted to let you know in case you didn't see on tumblr, apparently the direct link still lets you see users' comments so that was our issue xD But I guess only the most recent page. Thank you for the help again, though c:
Aah thanks! Yeah I guess that's it... make sure to bury any compromising comments quickly, lol XD
I'm kind of curious to see where that goes, I know there's the whole "catching cheaters" aspect to it but with smail being so limited, I could be very fine with comments turning to a "friends only" thing... I don't even understand why smail has limits if comments don't, but oh well xD Since the feature already exists, I can only hope it gets fixed at some point!
You're very welcome c:
