Blog EntryHow to make your site privateJun 22, '07 11:00 AM
by Luiz Felipe for everyone
You have many entries in your site and now want to make it all private so non-contacts and anonymous (not logged in to Multiply) can't see your posts?


Unfortunately, there is no way so far to make it at once. You have to edit post by post, and change the privacy (access) settings. If you want more control about who can see it and a few new options while composing/editing entries, turn on Advanced Posting in your settings (go to Posting Options):
http://multiply.com/setup/advanced-posting


You may want to do it to your account and profile (personal data) settings too:
settings --> My Account
http://multiply.com/setup/account

View Profile (http://Your_Username.multiply.com/profile) --> Edit Profile
http://multiply.com/setup/profile


The Welcome box is the only thing that's always public, but you can hide it if you want. Just click on Customize My Site on your main page and then on the Hide link found in your Welcome Message box. If click on Edit, you can choose if the link to your Profile page is visible or not if you keep the Welcome box in your page. You can also use the Edit link in your Contacts and Groups boxes to change their privacy settings (choose who can see them).


As a side note, blocked users will appear in your Viewing History, but they won't be able to see any of your posts nor leave comments. But be aware that if they log out from Multiply, they will see your public posts (the ones for Everyone), but not comment.


Update1:
Now in the Posting Options settings page you can also choose the default acces level for the next posts you create (it will be the default setting for your future posts).
