blocking profile on search/phx viewer

[FoxTrotFeral]

Hi all,

I have been triying to get my main avi's profile blocked from search for DAYS. I have unchecked the 'show in search' box on my profile and searched for  it wth an alt that is not in any shared groups as my main and yet my profile still appears in search. If anyone has any further ideas  I would be most grateful.

thanks!

 

Edit--i searched for my profile using an alt that is not friend with my main and is not in any groups with her and still my profile comes up in search...anyone have an idea why?

You can adjust the privacy settings in your profile on line at https://my.secondlife.com/settings/privacy .  I'd suggest changing the setting on each of the elements to "Friends," which is the most restrictive level of permissions.  That should keep you from showing up in search.  If you want to make yourself invisible to selected friends, you can uncheck their access in your Friends list.  That won't actually make you invisible to thm, but it will add an extra layer of difficulty, so most people won't bother..

thanks for the info, Rolig. I have acutally done this too and now that I think about it I'm not sure if the avi I tested it with might be friends with my main...lol..I'll recheck again tonight. ty )

Okay so I am still showing up in search and my non-friended alt can pull up the profile. Anyone have any other ideas?

yeah, not of this passes for me in Firestorm either. Maybe a periodic update is required for it to work? Thanks for starting this thread.
