Your most wanted Jimdo feature

 

At the beginning of July, we asked you to vote for the next Jimdo feature in our forum (take a look at it here). As a little reminder - you could vote for one of the following features:

  • Restore/backup
  • Own forum
  • Poll
  • Music player
  • Counter
  • Customisable fields for your contact forms
  • Continuously adjustable image sizes
  • Flash banners

The poll was finally closed on September 1st. Actually, it was a nip-and-tuck race between "Restore/backup" and "Own forum". It was so close that, summing up the votes of the English and the German forum, the score was even.

...and the winner is...

We thought about how to solve this stand-off and decided to develop "Restore/backup" as the next Jimdo feature. We really think that this is very useful and might be a great help after deleting something accidentally. Since it is a quite complicated process to develop such a feature, we won't be able to release it tomorrow :) But don't worry, we're working on it!

 

Those who voted for the own forum: Don't be disappointed! There are other ways to integrate a forum into your website! Several providers offer forum widgets for free - so it's not impossible! In our forum there are some posts in which an own forum is already discussed. Maybe you'll find some good tips here?

 

So, thank you all for voting! The winners of the JimdoPro packages will be informed by email! Congratulations to you!

 

Best regards,

Your Jimdo Team

    Hi Jimdo -- Could I suggest that questions posted on the forum be reviewed and responded to once in awhile, even if the response is, "we can't help you?" I have an RSS feed question on the forum and sent via email to the "help" contact link - both are many days old - and I have not had a response to either. Other posts on the forum have gone unanswered for weeks.

    Not trying to be difficult, and I don't expect an immediate response to forum posts, particularly given we are on different continents. Still, some response within a reasonable time-frame would be appreciated.

    Thanks much!

    @tcbikingnews thanks for pointing it out, we're aware of the problem and are just in the hiring process for more support! It's our main goal to offer first class support. By the way, we've improved significantly in getting back via e-amil so your mails should have been answered by now, correct?

    Can you create a feature that allows us to export our website html via download and/or zip?

    @Shane:

    No, we currently don't plan such a feature.
