Tagging People and Social Permissions

Posted June 17th, 2010

You can now tag people on your gallery entries so they can see content involving them and save copies to their own galleries. Tag people by email address so they don’t have to already be on SwingVine Gallery. Unlike with other implementations, when your friends or family members make copies of entries they’re tagged in, they can edit those copies (titles, descriptions, adding / removing photos, etc.) without interfering with your original.

 

On a related note, we’re supporting a new “Social” privacy level. This is for folks who want their content to be somewhere in between being completely public and for personal viewing only.  When you set your default privacy level to “Social” under account settings, new entries you create will only be visible to others you’ve tagged or added to your gallery as contacts.
