Topic: Feature Requests / Posting comments to a message by replying

We lost our branding edge when 37signals dropped their badge in the footer.

As long as you’re not on the free plan, this is a setting you turn off in the account tab, in the affiliate section.

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / Files attached to messages – indented?

Happening here too.

Thanks for the quick response Jeff!

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / Posting new message no longer auto-subscribes

Hello,

Prior to today’s update, posting a new message would subscribe you to comment notification on that message. That’s no longer automatic as of this update.

Is this the new intended behavior? If so, I’d like to request it’s put back to the old way as soon as possible. If it’s not, I’d like to request it’s fixed as soon as possible.

Thanks!

-Matt

Topic: Feature Requests / "Private" marker on All Messages Archive

Hello,

I’d like to request that private messages are marked as such on the “All Messages Archive” you get to when you click “Older Messages” at the bottom of the Messages tab. The URL is:

/projects/[projectNumber]/msg/all/archive

It’s hard to look through these (generally many, because of the screen) without any indication of context.

Thanks for the hard work!

-Matt

Deletes the files.

Topic: Miscellaneous / What software do you use to send estimates/invoices?

You can customize all the colors with Freshbooks, and add your own logo. What other customization are you looking for?

Topic: Miscellaneous / What software do you use to send estimates/invoices?

I like freshbooks as well.

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / Open Bar and altering your OpenID

The whole point of OpenID is that you can use your own domain name…link your own domain name to your OpenID provider. It will never change. If your OpenID provider goes bust, you just change the delegation address in your domain headers.

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / Unable to Archive a Project

Free account is one project only, not one-at-a-time.

Topic: Feature Requests / To-Do in Backpack

I’m pretty sure you can do that in both Backpack and basecamp.

Topic: Campfire / Put login form or link to login form on 37signals.com!

Usability 101 for web apps states that

Hmm, not familiar with that one. Maybe 37signals should read the book about how to write web apps. Oh wait…

Topic: Feature Requests / Complete Dashboard To-Do Item Without Page Reload

What browser are you using?

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / openid problems

Also, I’m still not sure—did you end up actually switching Basecamp to your openid, so it knows the account to link your openid url to?

Topic: How are you using Basecamp? / Public Projects

Would be an interesting API product though.

Topic: Tips & Tricks / Reorganizing projects

Add company 2 to project 3, and go to project settings and change the primary company the project is filed under. Does that help?

Topic: Feature Requests / Pre-Populated Templates

I would really love project templates as well.

Topic: How are you using Basecamp? / Basecamp Admin - Companies ? Clients ?

The functionality they had is the same as far as I remember…it was more of a naming convention. I could be wrong, it’s been a bit. Read the old forums about it, there was some heated discussion.

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / Closing Tabs

It shows the latest few contacts you’ve looked at…it’s not really a tab you “close” like browser tabs. Those are just quick links to make it easier to access your most recent.

Topic: Feature Requests / Stick Messages!!

Have you considered using the announcements feature?

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / To-Do templates glitch

Camino uses Gecko just like Firefox, so anything that works in Firefox should be exactly the same in Camino.

Topic: Feature Requests / People: Adding and Moving

1. You can do this already for people in your company. Click the “people” tab, edit the person, and on the right side there’s a link to Grant or Revoke access to all projects.

2. You can already do this as well, just edit a person from the People tab and use the drop down box labeled “Company.”

Topic: Troubleshooting and Bug Reports / Cannot click tabs

We’ve got our best people on it

Which of your people aren’t the best?

Topic: How are you using Basecamp? / Confidentiality Agreements sent before person invited

Put in your own email address at first and have the invite sent to you…then change it to their email address, and sent them your own invite with your own text.

Topic: Miscellaneous / Search Forums

Entering site:yoursitehere.com in google will keep searching to the one site only, similar to your custom search engine. Ben’s string searches the basecamp forum for the word outlook.
