Photos, Pulses, Videos Coming Soon to Your Xanga Frontpage + Unlimited Protected Posting
Two quick updates for all of our users!
1) Photos, Pulses, Videos coming soon to your Xanga frontpageWe posted last year about our plans to have Photos, Pulses, and Videos show up on your Xanga frontpage:
If I post a pic from my iPhone directly onto my Xanga... I'm going to want people to see it! But right now it gets sent to a separate "photo blog" on my Xanga site, where it gets almost no traffic (we've looked at the stats - more on this in a later post).We've addressed this issue in the mobile app by blending all updates - weblogs, photos, video and pulse - into a single, unified blog. For starters, it helps makes the app much more streamlined. But it also helps you find updates from your subs that you easily could've missed on the live site!
This is part of a major effort to focus Xanga on blogging. And it's been so awesome to see in action during mobile testing that we're going to be offering this new unified blog soon across the whole site, starting with interested users. Soon you'll see my weblogs, photos, pulses and videos all blended together on my Xanga site frontpage, at john.xanga.com.
We've made a huge amount of progress with our mobile app in recent months, and mobile uploads and posting is on the rise. So the time feels right to move forward here, and we're ready to launch this update soon!
If you'd like to keep photos, pulses and more off your frontpage, you can opt-out by tweaking your settings:
- For Theme users:
Click "edit theme", then click the little pencil icon to edit your main weblog module, then adjust the new "Content" setting...
- For Custom Look & Feel users:
Go to your "Look & Feel" settings page and adjust the new "Weblog >> Content" setting...
2) Unlimited Protected Posting for all coming today!
We're also working on allowing anyone to add as many users to your Protected List as you'd like. Previously this was a Premium-only feature. This update should be rolled by the end of today.
Have a great weekend, everyone!

yay for the unlimited protected list!
excellent updates.So anything new for premium users?
Is there a Kindle Fire app?
I'm confused.
Video manager still sucks. But thanks for the upgrades. Now I can add all my besties to my protected list. Yay!
Oh, when're you gonna let us check our PMs on the mobile app? I mean, that's a feature that SHOULD have been there at the app's launch.
Glad to hear of the new changes. BUT, can you make the front page more eclectic and with more class than what we are getting now?
Man approved.
Now my images, videos, Pulses and audio can be posted on my Xanga.com weblog.
Thanks, Xanga, I hope you will allow non Premium members to upload more than 3 profile photos. Some of us have photos for different festivities (Valentine's Day, Xmas, Hanukkah, etc).
I have one simple request. I would like to use Look & Feel on my IReallyLikeFood page rather than Themes. How do I make the switch?
You should give the Ish sites bloggers more choice in choosing their site themes and allow them to give gift Premium with Xanga credits. After all, they are all members of the Xanga network. You should treat them equally like any members of the Xanga proper.
Cool!
@purpleranger@ireallylikefood - Good question. I was a Lovelyish member and I encountered similar problem.I decided to cross over to Xanga because I find the Xanga service on Ish sites lacking.
Ish sites bloggers don't have the classic Look & Feel. They all have the new Xanga theme layout. So your upgrade is pointless.
yay.
The Team should also fix some glitches along the way, I don't want to log on one day and see that my Private/Protected postings are suddenly "viewable" to public. I sended a message to John regarding this, I am hoping he has read it.
Thank you, Xanga Team.
is this why suddenly all pictures are not showing up?
why do i have to use a VPN to log in or get this site to load at all? my patience is wearing oh so thin
hey, can i ask a question? .. can i export all my entries to livejournal because that site works?
tried using the mobile app .. it says i have no recent posts .. and the frustration of not knowing mounts
lol yay! :p
I'm wondering if this new stuff is why me and a friend are suddenly not able to get xanga to load at ALL through our usual browsers, and I'm having to route around through a completey different browser to use xanga at all. That or the recent solar flare...
Whatever you're doing, you just yanked my premium off my site, for the FOURTH time this year. Could we please stop doing that?
While YabloVH is routing through a different browser to get to this site, I'm still having to use a VPN. Meaning, I have to route through a different COUNTRY. You've no clue how upset this makes me. One friend on the west coast is ok, another and myself on the east coast (of America!) cannot access the site at all. I understand you're making changes, but I don't recall any information about outages. The only specifics you gave was unlimited protected list by end of this day (the 5th), everything else is coming soon. The great advances and improvements to the mobile app was a total waste of time, if they indeed did happen, because I wouldn't know. The app doesn't show my entries either!It's extremely rude to cut people off of services they pay for without any communication or warning. Do you respect your paying subscribers? Or not?
HEY!
I have no service xanga. FOR THREE DAYS. I'm dying. FIX IT. PLLLEASE.
Another day, another day on the VPN to use Xanga. I pay for a service to allow me to use another service, that yep, I pay for.
Thanks for your explanation was very good effort, while health information in your handbedava sohbet cinsel sohbet
