Can anyone tell me whether DW either has a way to change the security of past entries en masse (eg changing all past entries from public to access only) OR to delete past entries en masse?

pages and custom text

I have no idea which com to post this but here goes -

I have a project I am starting and I need a 'log' to go along with it. I would love to use DW but I am not sure if I can. I need 'pages' (kind of like a static post but on it's own page - wordpress has them) but I have no clue if the DW/LJ code even allows for them. Does anyone know?

Also, does anyone know the character or line limits of the custom text boxes? (I need a lot) I have played around with the one on this journal a little but can't find anything that says, 'hey, you have X amount of space'.

Finally, does anyone know when we might have a three column layout available?

Thanks!

Importing query & tags query

2009-04-23T03:42:25Z

Hello,

Firstly:

I've successfully imported my entries from LJ, but haven't tried to import anything from insane journal yet aside from icons. There are very few entries there which are anything other than a mirror of what was on LJ but the ones that differ have comments. The rest don't.

If I clicked the import comments: implies entries would I get the duplicate entries I don't want, or only the select few that have comments on them?

Secondly:

In regards to tags, over on LJ they seem to fill themselves in semi-automatically after the first few letters typed into the tag bar. That function doesn't seem to be working over here as yet - not on my tag entry page at least.

Is this a glitch?

Tags and Tagging

So, I've gone and set up a community and have noticed that I can't set who can and cannot set tags or create tags for it. Similarly, I can't get to the manage tags page for my own account. Known bug, bad link, or something else?

Edit: Ok, apparently my proxy and the tags management page don't get along. Thanks!

Setting up filters???

Hi there,

Ok over at LJ I have all my communities as a separate link, so when I click on it only posts from those communities show and aren't all mixed in with my friend's entries. Anyone know how to set up a filter like that here?? I have tried looking under manage circles and manage filters.

Thanks for everyone's help in advance
