Updated - Privacy settings - Dolphin 7

I don't undersatnd the bottom illustration.

You need to explain that bottom illustration. I can't make any sense of it........ however, that doesn't mean it's not an accurate representation : )

The top illustration makes perfect sense.

well in short.. the dolphin 7 privacy it's a mess :)
and I must agree with that..

here, take a look here

is my last comment on this.. really.. i will no longer bother because i no longer care.. the boonex team should just continue their work and ignore us all..

Every time I look at this, the picture changes. The first one was just fine the way you had it. It was a good graphical representation of the effect of privacy settings on any given content. Now it's getting confusing. This isn't really something that lends itself well to a graphical representation. It's really a matrix.

> My english is too basic... and I'm not sure that BoonEx understood that some of us are trying to say.<

You mean that when some French guy speaking english to some developers, who's primary language is Kyrgyz, something might get misunderstood?

The only thing they really need to understand, is one simple question, and a few simple answers.

The Question:

Who may view this _______?

The Answers:

[ ] Everybody

[ ] Members Only

[ ] Friends

[ ] Some Friends ( list see more )

[ ] Private ( list )

All Members

Friends & friends of friends
Male only
Females only

We should now that many members need an easy understanding of what to set where and for what it is.

Many members on a community site can register somewhere and write mails and then they need to ask to get further.
We should think for all :-)

Why cant you guys just buy dolphinmods privacy mod rarther than always asking boonex to add this and that.

Privacy Settings - one step further...

Admin can choose from two different Privacy Settings sets:

1) For a Social Network or Community Site (see houstonlively list of Privacy settings options)

2) For a Dating site

Privacy Settings options:

Who can see my profile, my blogs, etc...

- Male hetero only
- Male gay only
- Female hetero only
- Female lesbian only

Those of you that are using Dolphin for a dating site, definitly have a unique set of requirements. For non-dating sites, those options absolutely, positively, need a way to be turned off, else they make every site look like a dating site.

This is an area that I like to have some public input from Boonex.

It is reassuring to see that privacy settings will at least be considered.
I am new to Boonex, can anyone guide me to a roadmap,list of enhancements for Dolphin 7.
There are some elements which should be core to a social networking site which aren't present in Dolphine.

I was trying out the privacy settings today and found out that they're not working at all. I created a privacy group (no members in it) with extends "none" and groups "me only". Nevertheless, any other member can post comment, add photos and join any of my groups.

So what's the use of these privacy settings anyway ????

Oops ... I did find out what it's all about. I created just 1 test profile and was using the admin profile as the second member. That's why the privacy settings were overruled. My apologies for bothering you with a non error :-)
