Due to users' different settings, computer specs, etc... sometimes we have difficulty reproducing users reported bugs. In the case of Firefox browser user, it sometimes helps when the user can send us a copy of their FF profile, and may be easier for us to duplicate the issue.

To send us your FF profile, please do the following steps:

1) clear your FF private data

2) go to C:\Documents and Settings\(your
username)\ApplicationData\Mozilla\Firefox and compress the files in
this folder --- > note: this is a hidden file, to locate it,

please go to windows explore, tools === > Option === > view == > hidden /
show == > show all docs. Then, please check the corresponding name

3) Send it to
joel 【at 】 diigo dot com

By the way, the compressed file maybe too large for email. you can send
it by

http://www.yousendit.com/

4) Please set a temporary password (go to tools > > profile to change) and advise your username and temporary password.

5) Please also advise the details of your computer specs (such as operating system, browser version, extensions / themes installed in FF), etc...

Thanks

An easy way to do this if you have *many* extensions etc. is to use the Infolister extension:

Hi maggie_diigo!

I checked the properties of my current profile (I have four-why I have no idea) folder, and I found that it was:

315MB (Size: 331,114,271 bytes/Size on disk: 330,774,481 bytes)

11,416 files
736 folders

Should I just zip-up the entire folder or just send certain items? I used SnagIt 8 to get a shot of the folder contents as well as the report from Infolister addon. They can be seen at http://tinyurl.com/27g5vu
and http://tinyurl.com/365euy respectively. Just click on the pics to enlarge to full-size.

Bytheway, how do you insert clickable links (such as the above) into forum posts?

Thanks!

Hi Tim,

In this case, you can zip-up entire folder except all bookmarks files ( from bookmarks-1.html to bookmarks-202.html).

To add hyperlink, you need to add a bit html code. However, we will support easy hyperlink later.

Joel, in answer to your question ("=====> Did uou experience the problem in every web pages or just some specific pages? Could you send us the URL where the diigolet disappeared after you had clicked the QuickD button?"), I uninstalled the Diigolet and installed the Diigo toolbar to see if the QuickD worked the same as the Diigolet. On all pages (no matter the url, type of page or whatever, it was

For Diigolet (works for all urls, type of page or whatever):
1. Click Diigolet button.
2. Click QuickD button.
3. Click Diigolet button (since the Diigolet bar disappeared)
4. Click QuickD button.
5. Click Bookmark/Share button
6. Fill-in bookmarking form.
7. Click Submit and Close

For Diigo Toolbar (works for all urls, type of page or whatever)
1. Click QuickD button
2. Watch as notifications tell me that the bookmark has been submitted, then saved.

Now, however, I tried disabling the Diigo Toolbar, then installing the Diigolet. Unfortunately, when I click on the Diigolet, I get the "Loading Diigolet" notification, which stays where it is and nothing else happens. I think I'll just uninstall the Diigolet and install the Diigo Toolbar (at least I know that works!)

C'yas!

How to Remove Signature Containing "My Bookmark" and "My Profile" links

Sat, 29 Sep 2007 06:58:41 -0000

bookmark |profile |sharing | post by yuegotit on 2007-09-29

Is there a way to turn off the default signature containing "My Bookmark" and "My Profile" links whenever I share Diigo page with others?

Thanks!
post by yuegotit on 2007-09-29
Not now. Please share with us why you wish to turn it off?

Changes made in profile not saved

bug |profile | post by locative on 2007-05-04

I'm trying to update my profile but it seems that Diigo still keeps the old version. I tried with Firefox (Mac) and Safari. In Safari doesn't work , in Firefox i just could save the changes once. If i try again it keeps in the edit profile page after clicking in "save changes".
post by locative on 2007-05-04
Ops, i realized that this happens because i wrote an "Incorrect Real Name format."
I didn't see that message. Maybe better in red color.

I've just wanted to put an "L" in my last name so i couldn't put my complete surname in previous versions of the profile page due to character limitations. Seems to be the same reason now but error message is wrong?
post by locative on 2007-05-04
Capital letters also changed to lower case in my name (beside the photo) at Profile page.
post by locative on 2007-05-04
Noted. I think there is a reason why we don't support capital letter - part of our syntax / tag design.

But maybe we should be able to allow the real name to be capitalized - will check

[Discussion] Please update your user profile / avatar

Hi everyone,

Diigo is continuing to evolve. Not only we aim to provide the best social bookmarking / annotation service, we will soon roll out more and more innovative and meaningful social features to make Diigo a rich social platform that enables new modes of social interaction, communication and discovery on the web.

As a first step, we’d like to encourage everyone to take a little time to update your avatar (a photo or favorite icon and your profile. Like to start seeing faces that we're interacting with :-)

hehe, I may want to make that as a requirement for this particular group - only those with avatar can post :-)

Please ACT NOW! Thanks
post by maggie_diigo on 2007-04-27
I agree, it is a very good idea to have an avatar. This makes it a lot easier to remember people. I for my part can remember faces a lot better than names. This is true for most people. Even though it is nice to see what the person you are communicating with looks like, I think the avatar doesn't have to be a personal photo - some people may not feel very photogenic or want to stay anonymous. Just any individual avatar can serve as a visual memory aid and be very helpful in "recognizing" people again.

New Profile issues

Tue, 17 Apr 2007 08:23:19 -0000

discussion |profile | post by locative on 2007-04-17

Some notes about the new way to configure the profile.

- No way to select what data i want public and what private.
- Would be better if the save button "saves changes" of Interests & Personality, saves everything, including the basic information, I've had to write it again.
- No personal website option??
- The new info i've entered (region, city, email...) is not in the public view of my bookmarks.
- Could you please put the "Flag as Spammer" link of the public view a bit smaller or in other place. I'ts kind of intimidating me...
post by locative on 2007-04-17
2 more things:

- can't i edit my posts in the new forum?
- Signature is uncomplete in public view (maybe the limit of the number of characters while editing the profile is not the same while viewing it).
- I need one more character to put my full name (spanish people we use two surnames).

Good suggestion, we are doing some improvement.
Thanks.

In a different thread, Maggie answered:
"Currently, only the group admin has the EDIT right. Later we may consider offering an option to allow the group admin to set the member's edit right (On / Off)."

Funny thing :-) I made the same mistake at first, too. I had not noticed that "Basic Information" and "Interest & Personality" need to be saved separately. I did notice the two buttons but did not notice that I need to click each of them if I made changes in each section. I agree it would be more convenient to have one button that saves everything.

Locative,

Hey, you're super fast. Our guys were just tweaking some stuff this morning and you found it already :-)

Yes, your feedback is good - making some changes now. Thanks
