Blog Post CommentHi Ted, Thanks for all the forward looking changes as you help us to prepare for GDPR. I'm also looking forward to exploring other ways we can use circles. Cheers, ST

Blog Post CommentHi ST- You're welcome! I'm sure there will be more changes/options between now and GDPR effective date, so stay tuned. Enjoy the holidays!

Blog Post CommentThanks for this improvement, Hoop. The old deactivation method was so tedious. But what happens if they are a Premium Member??
-
Blog Post CommentHi @neil ! If a premium member deactivates their account, their premium membership will simply have auto-renew canceled (if it's not already). That way, if they decide to come back and reactivate their account, their premium membership will still be active if it hasn't yet expired. When a premium member chooses to delete their own account, the premium membership is terminated immediately and no refund is given. Both of these implications are made clear to the member when deactivating or...

Blog Post CommentHi Ted, Is there a way to turn off this feature? If not, we need one immediately. Concerns: Most of our circles are to provide access to specific forums that are visible only to the members of those specific circles. This is important: We do not want the existence of some forums and the related circles to be visible. Some of our circles have names that that were never intended for public consumption If specific circles are by invitation-only (most of ours are), then we don't want to have to...

Blog Post CommentHI @ST , We only show publicly viewable circles to regular users. If the circle is marked as Viewable By Super Admins Only (the default), then only Super Admins will be able to see the circle. Thus, this shouldn't be an issue unless you've unchecked that option on the circles to make the circle visible. Does that help? Brian

Blog Post CommentHi, Brian: I see the check box when configuring circles at the site level. Of course, all of this is more convoluted for me because we are using groups in an unconventional way. So when I looked at configuring circles at the group level, there is no checkbox for VIewable By Super Admins Only (I thought you'd get a chuckle out of this one). After poking around a bit with a couple of my dummy accounts, it looks like the Viewable By Super Admins Only default applies to group level circles by...

Blog Post Comment@ST , yep, that's correct. Hoop.la won't show group circles publicly; the feature Ted described only applies to circles on the main site, not in groups.

Blog Post CommentI love how they use circles. It is a great way to organize your friends by their relationship. So many time with Facebook, you cannot specify how they are related to you. Hopefully we will see a bit more iphone application development in this realm. The app that Google has out now could use a bit more polishing. What do you guys think?

Blog Post Comment❤️I sure wish you would send emails to all the admins of your various Hoopla sites when you do a new release! I have had complaints all day about our members not getting email alerts like they used to. I was not aware that anything had changed! We need to know when these releases are published via another method than just a blog post here. I am now following this Blog, which may help. But a specific email alert about things like this would be VERY helpful.

Blog Post CommentHi @Rich Melvin , I would recommend (as it sounds like you've done) that you subscribe to all new blog posts on this site if you'd like to keep abreast of new releases. We don't send out separate emails to site administrators currently to avoid duplication since many customers already follow the blog. To confirm you set it up properly: you can set that up on your Primary Notifications settings here: just enable Instant Notification for New Blog Posts . As far as the specific issue your...
