Hi, I have a new Ning network called Let's Be One Hand.  I'm thinking about moving it to Social Go because it automatically recommends users for other members to connect with and also automatically loads Facebook profile info when a user creates an account with FB.  Before I switch, does anyone have any reasons why I shouldn't or perhaps a suggestion for a site that's better than Social Go?  Thanks!

Best social media for small business

Comment by JenSocial on April 27, 2012 at 11:16pm

Writer Chick,

To capture a specific group, would take custom script in the custom code box. However, for a page, you can add your CSS to the Custom Box for the specific page. For example, if you added the following code to a page, by clicking on "Manage Title and Meta Tags Manually...". Then add this code to the box labeled Custom:

<style>

p {font-family:tahoma;}

</style>

Any code you wrap in the <p> content here </p> tag, would take on the font tahoma.

Alternately, you could write an inline style directly in the page Text Box, and wrap your content in a DIV like this:

<div style="font-family:tahoma;">your content within the page</div>

Hope that helps,

Jen
