Where Families Play
New release: Glubble for Families v2.0.2.0!
I'm pleased to announce that we have just released Glubble for Families v2.0.2.0. It contains many new and improved features. And we are really proud to say that most of these have been based upon user requests and suggestions at this forum! You can find and download the latest release right here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5881
Here is what you can find in this new release:
For adults
- A new login and registration screen. These screens reflect our offering for families in a better way.
- We have simplified the login process. Let's say you have registered the Jones family Page at Glubble. Simply go to www.glubble.com/jones and only enter your e-mail and family password.
- Parents can now use a new add-site button in the Firefox address bar to add web sites to their Kids Collections. Here is how it works. Let's say you come across this great kids web sites from our good friends at www.speakaboos.com. They have a beautiful web site for children.
In your Firefox address bar there is a new icon called add-site. Click on the icon.
You will be presented with a dialogue (see 2 examples above) that will allow you to select to which Kids Collections you would like to add this site. Default it selects all of your children, but you can make your own choice of course.
Press save, and the next time your children use Glubble, they can find the Speakaboos site in their My Kids Collection view!
- Support for local timezones. You can now specify in which timezone you live to make sure that family events are firing in the correct timezone. The setting can be found in your My Account Settings page.
- When a new family member is added and a birthday is set, the family events calendar will add a birthday event automatically.
- At request we have added e-mail notification when someone leaves a message on the family message wall, creates a family event or uploads photos to the family photo album. All adult family members will now receive e-mail so that they know that the family page was updated. Convenient to keep in touch.
For children
- At request we have added the ability to delete favorites in the Kids Page. It works really easy.
Simply click on the new edit button, and you will see buttons appear (X) that, when clicked, remove the favorite.
- Customization of the Kids Page using colorful themes. We have created new colorful themes for your child to decorate his or her kids page with. We will be adding more themes the coming weeks and we will create a special contest in which children and their parents can create themes themselves. But, more on that later ;-)
- New colored backgrounds for My Photos, My Gotcha's and My Collections in the Kids Page. We have tried to make these pages visually more distinct so that children can recognize what they are for.
I hope you will enjoy this new release. We certainly enjoyed building it with your help. Keep your feedback coming in our forum. We really appreciate it and your input helps us make Glubbe the best service for families!

No, that hasn't returned yet. I replied to this topic on our forum to explain:
