Non-member comment notification improvements

This morning we put up a couple minor feature enhancements to ActiveRain, which members keep asking for. Here are two of the main ones.

Comment notification for non-members

We added a new way for non-activerain members to receive email notifications of replies to comments they leave on blogs here at ActiveRain. This enhancement was mainly made to make it easier for consumers who visit the site to track the conversations they may get involved in through blog comments. We also eliminated the (up to now) unused email address field for non-member comments, though an email address is required to get notifications.

Added more member types to be displayed on Localism.com

Prior to now we only had lists of members who were agents/brokers or loan officers on Localism. We added an additional drop down menu so all member types on ActiveRain are easily accessable.

Thank you. I think this is so important. We mostly think of ActiveRain as being something for the members, and what it can do for us. The real target is the consumers.

Thanks!! This will help. Hopefully we as a community will respect the non-members who leave their emails and not bombard them.
