Media Sharing on Vybee.com

1:33 pm in New Features by Vybee

Media Sharing has arrived on Vybee.com.

It has been one of the most requested features of our crew and members.

Now you have an even easier way to share media along with your local updates and reports
right from your home page, group pages, and friend’s pages.

Reach your local interest communities on Vybee.com
+ Facebook & Twitter networks all from one place.

Here’s how it works…

Once you’ve logged in, visit your home page
(the ‘Home’ tab in the top header) to access the update box.

And follow the quick steps detailed below…

1) Type in your update or an intro to the media you’d like to share.

2) Select a group you’ve joined where you’d like to send your post.

(You can join groups from the ‘Groups‘ tab in the header by viewing ‘All Groups‘.)

3) Select options to post to your Facebook and Twitter networks.

* If you haven’t done so already, click ‘Post to Facebook’ and ‘Post to Twitter’
to set up your accounts. We will remember your settings from there.

4) Click the media icons to post media.

- Click the camera to upload images
(you’ll be able to select one or even multiple files to upload at one time).

Or share image urls (make sure image urls end with .jpeg, .gif, or .png).

- Click the film strip to share video links from YouTube, Vimeo, and more.

- Click the link to share links from websites, blogs, etc.

5) Click the ‘Preview’ button to see a preview of your media.

6) Click the ‘Post Update’ button and you’re done!

- allow a few seconds for the media to post to your page.

Details may take time to read, but try it out for yourself,

Improved Notification System…

7:40 pm in New Features by Vybee

We now have a new and improved notification system in place.

After some glitches from our last system, this is a much appreciated improvement.

We now have better options for adjusting your notifications from each group you’re a part of – from all emails for groups you’d like to be more involved with, to daily digests or weekly summaries to keep up with active groups in a more manageable way, to no emails from groups you’d like to join, but just keep up with on the web.

You can find links to adjust notification settings for each group you’ve joined from the main Groups Directory, quick links below the description of each group you’ve joined, as well as the ‘Notifications’ tab in each group you’ve joined.

You can also adjust settings for each group forum topic from following topics of interest
to mute any topic you’d just rather not hear about.

And you can always change your notification options from groups you’ve joined at any time.

Hopefully this will improve your experience with Vybee.com
and offers a better way to tailor your experience here.

For any questions, feedback, or ideas, please post them up in our support site…

http://Support.Vybee.com

Look forward to your continued participation
with this evolving site dedicated to improve local community engagement.
