Hi!
When forwarding a bookmark via email a default text (I found an interesting...) is inserted - is there any way to customize it?
Also when adding comment from Diigo's main bookmark page it defaults to public - is there any way to
make it private by default?
Thanks!

===>Y, you can change it in the forwarding tab.

Thanks joel!
Let me clarify:
What I want to change is the text that is inserted by default so a diifferent (custom) text will be inserted by default and I will not need to change it every time.
As for second one - when you add a comment using a menu that appear when you roll mouse over the bookmark (it says: Caution: your inputs can be seen by all Diigo members visiting the web page) - it is set to public despite the fact that in options it is set to private

What's the next feature we should implement first? We often ask ourselves this question. How about using a vote system to help us decide the priorities? Everyone can vote for the next feature, and we can implement the most wanted feature first.

The first is about bookmark privacy, the second is comment privacy setting. The default comment privacy setting is always private. BTW, what's the toolbar version ( Diigo drop down --->Help--->About )?

I'm talking about "My bookmarks" page when you navigate to diigo's website, not the one that appears when you click on the toolbar button. When you point (without clicking) on a link a menue appears at the right bottom cornet of the link's block, it says "Comment edit forward delete etc" - when posting comment using this menu it defaults to public.
As for implementing certain features - I vote for simple alert system - maybe a pop-up notifying that certain bookmark should be revisited! :)
That would be REALLY REALLY nice - and someone from your team mentioned it's been on the cards...
AS for changing the default text when forwarding - oh well. If it's too difficult, don't worry
Thanks

updated to the latest version - same behavior...
I would also like to change the default text for forwarding. The phrase "I found an interesting..." isn't the way I send out emails, and besides, the copy has the ring of "junk mail" written all over it. Also with the powered by Diigo blurbs. I know that you guys need to plug your service somehow, but I think that it probably isn't the best entrance point (i.e. via email) for it.
1) We will change the default setting as private and info you when it's done.
2) Y, the alert feature is implemented in the next version. We are testing it now.
Thanks heaps

Hi Joe, hi Invanhoe and other privacy optioneers,
wouldn't it be great for social (and also for private) annotators, if the user could set their own user defaults (overriding the system defaults):
- BookmarkPrivacy to: 'public' or 'private' AND
- CommentPrivacy to: 'public' or 'private'
Currently the social annotators are annoyed each time with the (small) task to always having to redefine the system default of CommentPrivacy to 'public'.
Imagine the cumulative loss of energy of (hopefully ;-) millions of social annotators.
Or did I miss a user preference option to do this (to make the user-default for CommentPrivacy ='public').

=================> How about allow the system to remember your last choice of public/private option?
Hi Joel,
Yes, your suggestion is even more user-friendly, to make the user-preference implicit (for BookmarkPrivacy and CommentPrivacy). I.e. the last privacy choice of each individual user remains "sticky", but visible and user-changeable on demand.
Thank you very much.
