I am a member of the DP since a couple of years and have been paying for the Premium membership a couple of times. I recently noticed that my signatures are gone since a new UI have been introduced. Please can anybody suggest me what to do. Is there any way to contact tech support?
Have a read of https://forums.digitalpoint.com/help/established and https://forums.digitalpoint.com/help/premium regarding becoming an established member and signatures. In particular, I think the following is relevant to you:
>>> Thank you Ryan! I am on the forum since September 2010 and have 65 + posts since that. I had purchased Premium membership a year ago, then extended it about a month ago and now all 4 my signatures are gone ... I am a bit confused with all of this
Hi mate, Yes, it's a bit of a change to what is was before, but to get your signature back you just need to get three posts liked by established members. A few tips that might help you: 1. Don't beg for them (people have been getting banned for that). 2. Choose a section that is your speciality and help some people out with problems they are experiencing. 3. Don't worry if the person you're helping can't give you a like anyway. There's a chance a helpful post will attract a like from anyone. Good luck.
Great and thank you for the words of encouragement! I would liek already to like your post ... How would I do that. The DP UI is a bit more confusing than other social sites
You can like posts once you're an established member. There will be a link next to reply. Don't worry, it's not as difficult as it sounds, mate.
Thanks, Ryan! I still don't see the "like" linke despite that my status changed to "Active member". Any suggestions on how to contact support or an admin?
It's when you become "Established Member" (receive three likes for your posts). Just below your avatar is your like count.
Oh... I see ... Somebody should like my posts 3 times before I can get be authorized to like somebody else ... very clever
Yeah. I can't remember what thread it's in, as there are so many likes about now, but Shawn (digitalpoint) has posted a few times about its intent (to deal with low quality users, the spam). So, as long as you're capable of quality posts, I wouldn't worry about it. Good luck with your business on here, mate.
You can surely remove your rainbow colored design at the top of your website . The appeal is reduced due to that. And add some meaningful looking flash videos in place or advertisements that would definitely work better for your business if you're aiming to get some revenue out of it.
