Release 86

[markf]

Release 86 has just gone live!

New Features / Improvements:

• Community owners can now make use of the Google Analytics feature for their community. (Previously, this feature was only accessible for personal journals.) Note that only the owner of a community can activate this feature; maintainers are not able to define or view the Google Analytics

Darn it, the view journal and view profile links were the only ones I ever used. And the menu's a lot bigger and more unwieldy now.

ETA: I'm also having some weird things going on - I can only see the userpic in the hover menu for some people and not for others. In addition, on my friends' page, all the entries are showing up with the poster's default userpic (or what I assume is their default userpic, since there's no longer any easy way to go to their profile to check...) rather than the one they used, even though it shows up correctly when I go to the actual community or journal.

This is happening for me too.

ETA: you can view someone's journal by clicking on their name. And someone's profile by clicking on the user icon.

Thanks for pointing that out. The only problem is that in most cases the user icon in the hover menu isn't showing up for me.

Go see my thread for an explanation of the differences between 'userhead' and 'userpic'.. :D

[gwinna487]

Ah, thanks for clearing that up. :) When the person above said "user icon" my mind just jumped to "userpic" rather than "userhead."

[shadecat]

:) Yeah, that's pretty much what mine did :D

[shadadukal]

Not in the hover menu, but where the name is written down on the page.

[gwinna487]

My mistake. It's all clear now. :)

Then you should have just turned the hover-over off, because as the prev. commenter said, the userhead leads to the profile and the username leads to the journal (or comm; both apply to both). This has been around as long as I have known about lj?

[gwinna487]

I do seem to remember hearing that the userhead leads to the profile, but somehow I managed to forget about it. Thanks for the reminder.

That sounds like an excellent idea, I surely don't need it. But - where CAN I turn it off? Do you happen to know off hand?

[debris_k]

I know they've removed the ticky box option from the settings so it has to be done "manually"; there's an FAQ entry about it, or there was when I was trying to find out where that option disappeared to.

ETA: Right, it's this one: What is the Hover Menu? How do I enable or disable it?

[ersatzkapitaen]

Ah, a removed ticky box explains my inability to find it. Thanks for the link! :)

Edit: Meh, the FAQ is empty, it probably once was there. :( I'll poke around some more later.

[debris_k]

WTF, it loads fine for me?

Anyways, here's what is says:What is the Hover Menu? How do I enable or disable it?
The Hover Menu appears when you hover your mouse pointer over an account type icon (, , or the custom userhead) or a user's userpic. The menu contains links to view the journal, community, syndicated feed, or its profile, as well as the options below. You can enable or disable the Hover Menu by using the following commands in the Admin Console:

To enable: set opt_ctxpopup Y

To disable: set opt_ctxpopup N
Hope that helps!

Crikey! How odd. Suppose I should check some of my browser settings. :/

Thanks for the copy! \o/

Sorry for the broken link code! XD
