How can ignore someone on yahoo 360 works?

Question

Ignore like block that person to view my page or block any comment of that person? Or like........... Anything else that means to ignore on Yahoo! 360?

Answer 1

There is no way to completely block someone from viewing your 360 space, as there are certain aspects that are always available for public VIEWING — your nickname, your profile pics (with some miscellaneous link functions under that), friends module, your Top Page comments (unless you delete all of them), and your background. If that's not going to work for you, then you should move on to using another service.

So, you can take the following steps:

1) Ignore the person (see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/fri... for how to use that feature).

If ignoring doesn't seem to work, meaning that the messages are somehow getting through, then you can reset permissions for your Communications Settings as well. See the next step.

2) Ignoring someone doesn't stop them from commenting on the page or viewing other areas (besides the always public areas). However, this is why you have permissions to stop such action.

If you want someone to not be able to comment and the person IS NOT connected to you, then you will have to change your Top Page and Blog comments from "Public" permissions to "Friends" permissions.

TOP PAGE:

- In your "My Page," click on the "Settings" link for the comment module (in lower left corner of the page).

- In the "Allow comments by:" drop down, set it to "Just Me (Private)."

- Uncheck the "enable quick comments box" as well. NOTE: Unchecking this prevents everyone from commenting. Checking it allows everyone to comment. There's no separating into categories here.

- Click the "Save" button.

BLOG:

Click "Edit Blog Settings" link on your "My Blog" page. Change the permission for "Who can post comments to your blog" and "Who can view your blog" to Friends. Click the "Save" button.

You can do the same permission changes for other areas of your 360 space (again, besides the always public areas that I mentioned above). See http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/per... for more information on permissions.

If the person IS connected to you, you can either remove the person as a friend (as stated here http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/fri... ) and then set your permissions as above OR avoid deleting the person by limiting access to areas even further than the standard permission group:

- Click on your "My Friends" link at the top of the 360 space. To the right is an area where you can create a new category. For example, type in "Block this mug" in the empty field and press the button next to it. You now have a new category called "Block this mug".

- Now, click the box next to the friends name that you want block and click the "Add to Category" button to put them in the "Block this mug" category.

- Go back to "My Friends" to make sure everyone else is in other categories.

- Click on the "My Blog" link at the top of the 360 space. Click "Edit Blog Settings." For every setting there, choose for it to only be viewable by "Friends." The menu will expand and you should choose "Friends by Category." Check all the categories that you want to view the blog, but don't check the "Block this mug" category. Click the "Save" button.

This is how to exclude someone from seeing or commenting to your "My Blog." You can exclude them from other areas of the 360 space in basically the same way once the exclusion category has been created.
