Associates ordering, Localism location search, Blog Comment search

There are a few minor changes this morning...

Associates: I tried to clean up the ordering. I'm still working on this but this version allows you to drag/drop people in your associates groups up and down to change their order. I'll be adding something similar to allow you to move people between groups shortly. Let me know if this isn't working for any of you (best way to do that is through the Contact ActiveRain form). It's pretty advanced javascript - so there might be some browser problems.

Localism Location Search: It's a bit rough (in IE you need to hit the "go" button, in FireFox... just hit return) but it should let you search for a location. Just start typing in the text box near the top right of any screen, once you're up to 3 characters you should start seeing a list of potential matches. Still working on this one as well. Let me know if it's misbehaving (best way to do that is through the Contact ActiveRain form).

Blog Comment Searching: I apologize about our search, I know it's pretty rough and we're working on getting that working better... but, in the mean time, I added a basic blog comment search... on the usual search screen. Ideally this would be combined with blog searching, or do you like it seperate, or do you want it both ways?

Ben, I think more options are better. Often I'm looking for a specific word string I remember from a comment. So a separate search would be good.

Thanks for the updates. I really like the associates one. I stopped organizing because it was getting difficult to move people around. The drag and drop works great.

Options are always good. I'd love an option to automatically strip html from comments. It would help get rid of comment spam. Just a thought. -Charles
