Feature request: Accessibility: Add description with each image upload

communities@jivesoftware.com — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 23:20:33 GMT

Problem: It is nice you can attach an image to posts (depending on system settings) but blind/visually disabled users do not get the benefit of that content nor does search pick it up, reducing SEO.

Proposed solution: Add a "description" field to each image upload page. This description would then show as an alt="" text for those images.

Thanks,

Mark

Email-in office attachments

communities@jivesoftware.com — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:29:51 GMT

Hi there - can someone tell me whether the "Advanced" email in supports emailing attachments, eg Word / Powerpoint files to become documents? Or can you only create a text document from the body of your email?

Thanks,

Jon

Status update search and clickable URLs

communities@jivesoftware.com — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 11:05:28 GMT

Hi,

Does anybody know if Status Updates are searchable in 4.0?

Also, is it possible to share clickable links via status updates?

Many thanks in advance

Searching Post 3.0

communities@jivesoftware.com — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 15:42:09 GMT

Hello:

We are considering upgrading from 2.5 to 3.something or 4.something. I am looking in the release notes and am a bit concerned to see that the ability to search across more than one content type has been removed. Can I get some additional information on how searching works in the upgraded version? I see this as being potentially problematic. When I am searching for something, I don't care whether it is located in a blog or a document.

SharePoint

Is there a difference between the SharePoint plugin and the SharePoint Module?

Also, has anyone any success in getting it to work in a hosted environment?

Upgrading: Do we or don't we?

communities@jivesoftware.com — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 20:44:06 GMT

We currently are on some version of 2.5, but considering the move to 3.something or 4.0. Any reason why we shouldn't want to upgrade? Anything been taken away from the product that I might want? Will my users notice much different? Either in a good way or bad (i.e. if the environment seems foreign to them)?

Is there a similar toolbar for Jive?

communities@jivesoftware.com — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:30:55 GMT

Has anyone thought of creating something like the Wibiya toolbar (Wibar) for Jive? This would be such a great functionality for bringing together social tools and community content.

Header, CSS and IE6?

communities@jivesoftware.com — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 12:40:42 GMT

As IE6 is still a standard on the internal SBS employee project I'm working on it has to be accomodated for in our designs. I'm finding it difficult to get the header displaying right in IE6 when I try and create a large background image. Net result we now have a very boring header! Has anyone got any CSS solutions they can share on this please so i can freshen it up?
