Themes Tags
*Update*
Thanks to everyone that emailed us and signed up to help! We have enough users to help us out, so over the course of the next week you’ll see more themes being tagged daily.
Much thanks to users o_Dirty_Blonde_o, rccalyn, and newbie2005 for their help tagging almost 1000 themes this past weekend!!!
You guys rock!!
Hey guys – we’ve been slowly adding tags to all the
themes in the directory! It’s
taking some time because we have to go back and tag all the old
themes. We’ve done about 700 of them, and it’s probably gonna take
another 2 months for us to finish going through them. So we thought we’d
reach out and see if anyone has time to help us out!Please email me
at eugenia-help@xanga.com if you have some time to help out! We’ll be giving out 20
credits to every tagged Theme
.Also, we noticed some questions about themes. Check out our themes forum for answers to commonly asked questions.
Thanks!

I’m in. Xo.
This is a nice idea Xanga.
I might be able to help but not til next week… i’ll email if I can.
What about future themes saved… can the designer tag it upon saving it to the Shared pool? or will you always have this task to do yourselves?

Sweetnessicity.
interesting. like… tagging the designer? interesting.
@rayray714a - We’re looking into adding self-tagging to Themes Directory submissions. The real issue for us isn’t tagging the new themes each day though… it’s going through the backlog of Themes. That’s where we could really use some help!
Cool beans.
Sweet sounds great
Sweet sounds great
I have time to help out and would love to! I just sent you an email. =)
@o_Dirty_Blonde_o - Thanks! I’ll check for the email.
@eugenia - You’re welcome! It’s titled “Tagging Themes,” if it’s any help. =)
oooo i don’t have time… but gah i want that extra 20 credits! oh well ><
FINALLY!
Sounds fantastic!.
maybe you should just give the theme makers the option to put the tags on their own themes to save time (for future reference, of course), but only using the options you’ve created
just a thought
Okay, in re-reading my comment, I’ve realized that my idea didn’t come through clearly, at least to me, because I was on the phone at the same time I typed it out so let me try again.
What I mean to say is, perhaps somehow create an option box in that allows the theme maker to check which tags Xanga has created (such as “animals” or “black”) they feel apply to that particular theme they just created. That way you’ll only have to back track and tag themes yourself or with help up until the time the option box is created and not, say, forever.
again, just a thought
Hmm…sounds good.
i’d be willing and able on a sporratic basis. i’m always glad to help out Xanga in any way i can. =)
I can help during my spring break.. that’s in a week
@IusPerfectus - absolutely, we definitely want to add a self-service model for themes tagging!
i just changed my username..now all the themes i made and shares has gone..i mean, when i click share themes, it said that themes doesnt belong to me..argh!!!!
so much for changing username!
thz for ur cm ~ ^^
Ooo, I’ve love to do this. I’m going to email now.
Oh… the things you can get people to do for credits…
I would gladly help out, but I don’t have the time right now.
hello… i hate the new universal inbox. is there anyway i can go back to the normal one??
=]
Hey I was just curious…
I’ve been on the Welcome Wagon today, and it still says that it has a 5x credit bonus.
But I’m only getting the regular 2 credit amount for each post.
I just wondered why that is?
~Jordan
I’m in!
thanks guys that’s great.
@farahamizah - I will definitely look into this and get back to you asap. Thanks for letting us know!
FYI, I HATE the new setup! I’m so confused! I can’t even figure out what or where half of the stuff is!
I don’t know where I should actually put this: I want my old Xanga home back, the one where my blogs are the main part of the page. May I have it back, please?
Neato! If I can find some spare time, I’d love to help.
now that i think about it, its probably too late. but ill still help if ya’ll need for people!
this is great guys.
i’m in.
And just HOW do I get rid of this “online now” button again?
I can’t remember where you posted about this……I want it OFF, though!
i’m online but not for long. also, why are are subscription lists shortened to ten or less?
@ilsurvive - http://help.xanga.com/onlinestatus.htm
@be_the_rain - the default is 10 but you can change it by editing your theme and changing the subs module settings
@Natalia - Thanks….. I’d figured it out…in a round about sort of way…..looked through Dan’s (theologian) older posts and knew I’d find it there somewhere…..sure enough
and then found a link for it there.
I know this isn’t about the tags, but HELP! I switched themes and now I have ads on my site! I haven’t had ads on my site in years… premium user. Bah.
Ads. In between my subscription pages. I don’t want to take surveys.
I don’t want fucking credits. I don’t want interruptions in my SIR
page. I don’t want to invite my friends. I don’t want to see your
feature spotlight. I don’t want ads when I pay for premium! HELLO? IS THIS THING ON?
i have a question
i just got a new site and my other site wont let me go to any other pages so why could that be???
and well how do you change your layout you guys changed alot and i have not been on so can you please help me ????
thank you

Sent you a message!
This isn’t about themes, but I’m not sure where else to give this input. I just started using the new subs page and the rest of the new private pages. When you guys first announced it, I wasn’t a fan, but I’ve gotten used to it pretty quickly now that it’s out of beta. I particularly like that pictures show up on the subs page. However, a big complaint I have is that I can’t see people’s “Currently… whatever” on the subs page anymore! I really like that feature of Xanga and miss seeing it. Can you fix that? Thanks!
You are very welcome
happy to help.
Oy some people are snarky!!
@smarkas -
wow I just noticed that now that you mentioned it. =P I’ll ask about this and get back to you via message.
@eugenia -
Thanks!
i’m a bit conused as tow aht tehse are
are htey like classifications?
This is a great idea… But I remember the days when we had to code our own layouts for Xanga, or settle with color combinations. Ah, nostalgia.
Ooh awesome more themes=)
i’d like to tag themes when i’m online and when i have time. i don’t know if you still need help, but i just sent an e-mail.
thx
Sweet sounds great

Thank you for sharing this article! I really like it! Because of
their relatively low level of writing. After seeing your article, I tried to
write some of this stuff, I published here, such as Coach Outlet, Coach Outlet Canada and Coach Bags Outlet. Those are
just a large blog, here there are some small blog site, also released a number
of articles. From http://www.usa-coach-bags.com/.
