  1. Update Horoscopes

    I have had the same horoscope for at least 4 days running now. All that changes is the date at the top of the box. I suggest if you want people to trust you, you update the horoscopes daily like you used to do.

            Hi Sarah. My mom and dad want cards and our time to help out with projects around the house – trim hedges, mow lawn, hang pictures – in other words a bit of manual labor. ;)
            You’ll soon be seeing Father’s Day gift guides on Shine but in the meantime here are some posts from years past that will hopefully offer a bit of inspiration.

            • Please post more transcripts -- Why force me to watch a 2 minute video, when I can read the transcript in just a few seconds?

              If you provide a transcript, I can quickly skim a story to see if it is of further interest, and I can slow done and read it at my own speed. Otherwise, I can quickly move on to the next story.
              Why force me to spend 2 minutes (or more) watching some video,
              only to find it is unimportant, not my lifestyle, or even (heaven forbid) factually incorrect, and/or merely the writer's opinion, and not factual (or fact checkable) at all?

                  Hi Randi. Yikes. It sounds like Notifications is really screwed up for you. We’ll contact the team that’s responsible for Notifications immediately and let them know all those issues you described. If there’s anything else that’s useful to know (e.g. what browser version you’re using) please also pass that along. Thanks!

                  • Layout is odd and unintuitive

                    It's not really an idea as much as feed back on the general layout of the site. I use IE7 to view the site and I have been an avid user of Shine for years. I find that I am unable to comment the majority of the time because the comment box is squished and hidden by ads. And it used to be that we could scroll through pages of "raw" and "suggested" content. Now I can't even see more than a few stories per section. I am really not liking this new layout these days. I find that I…

                      Hi Katie, it’s Brenda! :) How are you?! I was flipping through the suggestion boards (now monitored by another team) and came upon your feedback. In early February, we launched the new infinite scroll layout. The “raw feed” was also eliminated since every piece of content is now “featured”. However, we’re getting reports that some users are not seeing the pages of page of stories in each category. We are trying to determine if the infinite scroll is not working with some browsers. Can you tell me: Does the page load more content when you scroll to the bottom? Does anything happen if you click the “Scroll down to load more stories button”. I’m so glad you’re still here to share your thoughts! Thanks!

                            Hi Brandee. Thanks for reaching out. Are you able to see the “Scroll Down to Load More Stories” button? The page should automatically load more stories if you continue to scroll past that button. If not, try clicking on it. If none of these things work, let us know what brower version you’re using so we can do some testing. Thanks!

                            Really? This guy's jealous of married couples without children and he presumes to tell them how and where to live and you post it as an article and include it in your newsfeed?

                              • Please go back to before you had to scroll down to read more stories. Having pages with 5-6 stories per page was great.

                                I say you just go back to the way yahoo shine used to be. The whole scrolling farther down the screen to load more stories is a bit frustrating because you cant even see what the topics of some stories are.

                                        • Stop stories that bully others

                                          The article written by Mr. Cain about the dumbest things Gwyneth Paltrow has said is disgusting. In light of trying to teach kids about being more sensitive to others' feelings and to stop the bullying; as well as the children and teens who have been victims of bullying who have actually taken their own lives; this type of "journalism" has no place in society today. Can't you stop the bullying that your staff participate in?
