how do you remove your own deviations from a group and if your founder of a group how do you remove deviations from a group?

rooteh In reply to Jermmgirl [2011-02-15 00:30:02 +0000 UTC]

1. Click on Edit on your deviation and uncheck the box/remove the group from the list (I think they changed the system in one of the latest updates)

2. Next to every deviation, there will be a + when hovering above them. Click on it and then Remove.

You can look up the common html codes for formatting in the FAQ

For bold it's: text

you wouldn't know how to change the features on the blue banner where the "invite friends" "submit art" "fav" and all that is? I wanna have it so that it's "contribute art" and "favs" only...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

rooteh In reply to revsXgirl [2010-09-17 23:08:03 +0000 UTC]

I'm not sure if you can disable sending invites in the settings....

Also, you should know that that menu is a bit different for admins/founders.... as those can directly submit art to a group

Members only have contribute, not submit

revsXgirl In reply to rooteh [2010-09-18 01:07:03 +0000 UTC]

oh really? okay then I feel a little better about things...
just thought you could change that blue banner cause I've noticed some people have just contribute art and fav or something like that and some have all..

but thank you for the reply

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

rooteh In reply to revsXgirl [2010-09-20 01:58:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, you can e.g. disable submitting to faves or to the gallery..... =)

revsXgirl In reply to rooteh [2010-09-20 08:21:21 +0000 UTC]

yeah that's what I thought... you wouldn't happen to know where that's done???

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

rooteh In reply to revsXgirl [2010-09-20 12:22:21 +0000 UTC]

In the settings, again

Pick the member group you want to disable it for, and then change the drop down menu to 'are not allowed' in the faves or the gallery section

rooteh In reply to Blueheghogsonic [2010-08-14 09:35:14 +0000 UTC]

You can!

Next to a folder, there is a small arrow and if you click on it, it will open a drop down menu that includes Renaming and Deleting the folder

rooteh In reply to Blueheghogsonic [2010-08-14 20:48:13 +0000 UTC]

Do you have the permissions to do so? What's your position in the group?

How do you try to erase it? Do you try to mark it r do you hit the delete key several times?

Blueheghogsonic In reply to rooteh [2010-08-14 21:18:22 +0000 UTC]
