Photo Watermark
Does anyone know if BLOX has a method to automatically add a watermark during processing of the multiple sized photos but keep it off the original for selling through second street's photo service?

Hi Jason! That is not currently available. You could do something a bit more manual, like a Photoshop macro, and then upload an unmarked one for MyCapture, but nothing automated.
We also can disable right clicking and/or save to desktop via a JavaScript - but of course, you could always do a screen shot.

What's the easiest way to temp disable the paywall?
We are making our site free during the current winter storm. To do so I edited the url assignments for each of the services but the process takes a little time and is prone to error when it is done and undone as a check mark missed can lock some users out of a section.
Is there an easier way to accomplish the same thing?

Option to duplicate classified assets
Feature request: It would be great to have the option to duplicate assets in Marketplace>Classifieds. A function to duplicate assets in all Blox applications would be useful.

Collection Pagination
Is there a customization that I am not seeing that paginates the number of articles associated with a collection? We are in the process of setting up topic pages but the number of articles is making the page very long and it would look better if it paginated after about 20 articles.

Updated Story Notifications
A co-worker mentioned that it'd be nice for logged-in readers to be able to mark a story so that they receive notifications if and when that story is updated. I guess by email.

Bullets and other special characters
One of our publications uses bullets and other special characters in the print edition. Those characters are stripped out when content is loaded into Blox. How can we prevent that from happening?

Email Reach Mail List ID
You guys seriously need to make finding the ID more convenient.
Having to view the page source code to get the list ID is really bad administration.
It should be displayed as text under the edit list popup.
Just my 2 cents...

Banner ad issues
Has anyone else had problems with the banner ad admin recently? The position weighting option isn't working correctly (I can't get a locked percentage to actually save) and I've got other ads, that while they are running, they stopped tracking impressions. Just wondering if anyone else has seen anything like this.

Adding a poll
I am trying to post a poll, but it isn't showing up on our site. Ideas? I looked at previous poll posts and everything is the same, as far as posting "checks."
