New Features....Discuss...

The new features are pretty good. Thank GOD you can now edit/delete reporting categories. That was so annoying.

As for the messaging feature, this will be very interesting. I wonder how often we will get specific messages for our accounts...and what they will be like?

Yahoo is really setting itself above all other ad companies with their communication efforts.

I like all the changes except for one. The message that's displayed everytime a non secure item is displayed. I know it's just a click to make the warning go away, but what a pain. I would have thought Yahoo could avoid it.

Now they need to get rid of insecure messages, very annoying. Other than that, well done.

Yeah, those are annoying for sure.

On another note, today was my best day revenue-wise. Anyone else?

I like the fact that the login page now allows me to save my password (Firefox). Save me from typing my password 133 times a day.

I also had a good day yesterday.

Non-Secure Content

I thought you could turn off the "Internet Explorer has blocked this website from displaying non secure content...." through the Tools button. I spent 10 minutes looking but can't find it....any suggestions or fixes to this?

Yeah, that is stupid. You select 'month to date' and it only shows 10 days, though the info that is shown on the bottom is for the whole month.

"You can use the Ad Targeting tool to target ads based on your users' interests. Simply go to the Ad Targeting page under the Ad Setup tab and use the drop down menus to select from 20 categories and 109 subcategories."
By my count, there are 132 subcategories.
What's up with this? Y just didn't count properly?

"I like the fact that the login page now allows me to save my password (Firefox)."
This is great. Thank you for mentioning it - I never would have noticed.
Does YPN tell us about this anywhere?

The "month to date" truncation is bogus, for sure - only 36 pages (for me) to check.
How is this data listed - it is not Alphabetical, by impressions, by clicks, by CTR, by CTM, or by revenue.
So, just what is the listing order? Random? How useful is that?
"Reporting categories" is the same - 10 at a time. This is mind-bogglingly clueless. We are going backwards here.

You STILL cannot see the MOST USEFUL data - totals for all categories over ANY time period, WITHOUT seeing the data from EVERY DAY - my favorite report from Google.

I agree. I am tired of clicking it allready. I sent them a suggestion on this to fix this issue. It is extremely annoying for sure.

I did as well. Also, at least for me on this laptop, I can't scroll down right away, I have to wait for a few seconds. Minor things for sure, but annoying.

You are not the only one. I thought maybe it was just me. I have to wait for awhile also. It is really annoying actually. It used to be real fast before this update.

Well I received a reply back from YPN about that Non-Secure message we were all getting and it looks like enough of us let them know we hated it. They have taken care of it. So that is a huge plus. It was annoying. Also looks like they got the pages sped back up. So that is good as well.

I can't believe I can't select multiple reporting URLs. I have like 50 URLs, do you know how f-ing long it takes to check all 50??? Does anyone have a better solution to this?

Nope. You try suggesting to them about fixing it yet. Maybe they will take it into consideration. I know I have a few also and it does take a bit to get through them all especially considering that their system is taking longer to load pages now.

Its seems to be loading very slowly for me as of today, but I did have a great day revenue wise when they made the changes.
