# Brands In this Getting Started tutorial, we will go through the basic steps of setting up your store and creating your first product to deliver to your bloggers. To get started, click on Create a store below # Create a store To register a store, you must go to EasyBloggers' mainstore and interact with one of the Store Management Terminals. Visit

If you don't have an EasyBloggers account, when clicking on the terminal, you receive a dialog prompting you to enter the name of your store.

That's it! You will receive a package containing the necessary items to run your store. # Open the brand package After you've received your package, the first step is to have a land to rez and open the package. Inside the package, there are various objects and terminals to get you started with the features of EasyBloggers and EasySubscribers:

* **EasyBloggers - Bloggers Search Access**: This is a terminal you can rez at your store or event. When a resident clicks on it, they are redirected to your bloggers' application form if it's active. * **EasyBloggers - Dropbox**: Similar to the dropboxes you are probably using for your vendor system, the Dropbox is the container object that will contain your products and the notecards to send for the notifications. * **EasySubscribers - Kiosk**: Your subscription includes an unique subscribers system. To learn more, visit [this page](/easysubscribers/getting-started). * **Kynno - HUD Passwordless login: Click on this HUD, and you will receive a link to log in** to EasyBloggers. # Prepare your dropbox The dropboxes are what host your products, textures and notecards to use within the system.

The default Dropbox already contains 4 notecards: * **YOUR BRAND: Application approved**: Send to any bloggers you accept via their blogger application. * **YOUR BRAND: Application rejected**: Send to any bloggers you reject via their blogger application. * **YOUR BRAND: New mail posted**: Send to your team when you create a new Mail * **YOUR BRAND: New product available**: Send to your team when you publish a new Product {% hint style="warning" %} We highly encourage you to change the name of the notecards to your actual brand name. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} The notecards are entirely customizable. EasyBloggers provides the template and the default notecards to help you get started but feel free to change their content. {% endhint %} {% hint style="success" %} Are you short on space on your land or want another location to host your Dropboxes? EasyBloggers includes free access to the [Dropbox Storage Facility](/easybloggers/getting-started/brands/more-features/dropbox-storage-facility). {% endhint %} ## Customization The dropboxes are unique and offer a lot of customization. Click a dropbox, then click `🎨 Design` and change it to your liking.

# Create your first product By now you should have your notecards ready, and it's time to prepare to create your first product on EasyBloggers. The first step is to drop your products into the Dropbox. The dropbox will synchronize its content with the server, and it should be ready in a few seconds.

Now, use the `Kynno - HUD Passwordless login` from your package to login to EasyBloggers, and click on the `Products` item in the navigation bar on the left.

Let's click the button `Create your first product`, it should open a new window for creating your product.

{% stepper %} {% step %} ### Object to deliver Select the object you dropped in your Dropbox in the previous step. When bloggers request it, this will be sent to them. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Do you have a demo for this product? You can put a demo to deliver for your product, that way bloggers can request the demo to see if they are interested in blogging it. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Product name By default, it takes the name of the object to deliver. However, sometimes the name may contain parasite text such as `(wear/add)` or `(box)`. The product name will be displayed in the interface. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Locations Locations are a unique feature of EasyBloggers. You can think of them as dynamic landmarks: When bloggers blog about your product and take it, they will know exactly where it is available. When they blog about it on Primfeed, the credits section will show the locations of your products, giving potential customers the possibility to visit and buy the product. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Priority Another unique feature of EasyBloggers is Priorities, which are a way to ensure bloggers blog your item in the order you would like. Priorities are optional, and you can use the Normal priority for every product. We will discuss the Priorities in more detail later. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Deadlines Two types of Deadlines are available for you to use. However, you are likely only to use `Deadline once`. * **Auto-deadline:** Request bloggers to blog about a certain product every X days. This is only useful for brands with a few items: mesh heads, bodies, cigarettes, etc. * **Deadline once:** The deadline will be set only the first time a blogger requests a new product. **This is the deadline you want to use 98% of the time.** * **None:** Bloggers are free to take this item without a deadline. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Texture UUID The UUID for your product image, `Right click on a texture` > `Copy Asset UUID`. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Optional blogging This removes all requirements and constraints on this product (deadlines, priorities) and considers it a gift to your team. {% endstep %} {% step %} ### Voilà! Click the button at the bottom, and voilà, you have created your first product in EasyBloggers. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %} # Notifications Remember the 4 notecards you renamed in your dropbox? It's time to configure it and use it for your notifications. Click on `Settings` at the top left of your page, then click `Notifications` under the `Store` category. Then use the menu for each notification, and select the correct notecard for the corresponding notification.

{% hint style="warning" %} Make sure to update these fields if you rename your notification at some point! {% endhint %} # Configure your settings From the Settings page available at the top left of your page, you have a lot of settings available to configure. This tutorial won't cover all of them, so feel free to explore them by yourself and carefully read the text associated with each setting.

# Invite your bloggers Included in your free plan, you can invite up to 3 members (bloggers or friends). {% tabs %} {% tab title="Manually invite your bloggers" %} From the `Members` page on the left, you can manually invite bloggers to join your team. If you don't have any members yet, click on the button at the center of the page. Otherwise, this button is at the top right.

Enter the name of your blogger, and two scenarios are possible: * **They are not registered on EasyBloggers or Primfeed yet** * The system will send a Bloggers package and a system message in their local chat. In that package, they have the same HUD as yours for logging in to EasyBloggers. After logging in, on the left, they can click `Invitations` and they can see your invitation and accept or reject it. * **They have an account on EasyBloggers or Primfeed** * They will only receive a system message in their local chat. No package will be delivered. * If they don't have a package, you can click on their invitation and Deliver them a package manually, or they can visit EasyBloggers' [mainstore](http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Printemps/60/35/28) to get one. {% endtab %} {% tab title="Search for bloggers in Explore" %} The Explore section gives you access to a list of bloggers you can manually invite to your brand.

Click on one of the bloggers, and click `Invite to {your store}`. You can review the last 10 accepted posts they made on EasyBloggers and decide if they match the style you would like to see with your products.

{% endtab %} {% tab title="Application form" %} Reserved to **paid subscriptions** only, another way to add bloggers to your brand is from the applications you receive when your Bloggers Application form is opened.

Depending on your subscription, you can add up to 20 custom questions to your form, and mark them as required or not. When opened, bloggers can apply to your brand by entering their names and answering your questions through the fields. You will receive a notification every time a blogger applies to your brand, and it's up to you to accept or reject their application from the `Bloggers App` menu on the left. {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} # Review the posts Once your bloggers are invited and part of your brand, they will start requesting your products and working with them. When they request a product, the system will automatically create a `In progress` post with the associated deadline if the product has any. Once they have filled the `In progress` post, the new status `Waiting for review` will show, and it's your time to review it.

Open the `Waiting for review` post, click the link to see the post, leave an optional comment and mark it as rejected or accepted. The blogger will receive a notification.

{% hint style="info" %} If you reject the post, a new `In progress` post is automatically created by the system. {% endhint %} # You know the basics This tutorial is now finished, and you should have the basics to manage your team within EasyBloggers. There are still a few elements to go through, but the best tip we can give you is to take the time to click around and read the information available for each page or setting. If EasyBloggers convinces you, it may be time to subscribe to a paid package to unlock its full potential. It's the last step of this **Getting Started** tutorial. {% hint style="success" %} **Each EasyBloggers' paid package includes a Primfeed Pro subscription for your store page.** {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} Packages start at **L$500 per week**, and you can buy add-ons **before** upgrading to a higher package. {% endhint %} # Buy a subscription EasyBloggers is a Bloggers Management System subscription-based system, which means you must keep an active subscription to use the system to its full potential. The system comes with a total of 4 plans for every type of brands: * **Free** -> This is the free plan, this plan is designed to be used by very small store that are getting started, or simply for anyone who wants to try the system. * **Starter** -> This is the first paid plan for small stores as well. Has your store started to grow? This is the plan for you. * **Pro** -> Are you a professional creator in Second Life, or do you want to use all the features EasyBloggers offers? * **Ultra** -> This plan is dedicated to the very, very big store in Second Life. {% hint style="success" %} The system offers paid add-ons to add Members or products to your store. For example, you could use EasyBloggers' Free plan and get the 10 members add-on. For only **L$100/week**, you will get 13 members in your store to use. ✨ {% endhint %} You can learn more about the full pricing at ## Subscribe to a paid plan Click on the Store Management Terminal, and you will be prompted to choose a store to interact with. Once you've selected the store, follow the instructions, and you can pay the price for the selected plan.

Once you have selected the package and the add-ons you would like to pay, you can select the amount in the dialog menu and `Right click the terminal` > `Pay` .

# Setup the auto-renewal EasyBloggers has an optional auto-renewal system that allows you to renew your subscription without visiting the main store every time.

Click `💰 Debit`, and accept the permissions at the top left. The Dropbox will reset and will be ready to be used to renew your subscription automatically.

Go to your `Settings`, click `Auto-renew` under `Billing` and you can select the duration you want to add every renewal.

# Thank you EasyBloggers and Primfeed couldn't exist without your support. If you decide to use one of these products, thank you, and I hope you will enjoy it. If you have any questions or need help with anything during the setup or use of EasyBloggers / Primfeed, please feel always free to contact Luke Rowley in-world, and I will be happy to assist you. # Tips Various tips that wouldn't fit into the other category of this getting started. ## Click around and read the description of options, etc. * The documentation covers the most important parts of the interface and configuration, but EasyBloggers evolves a lot with updates, and sometimes, the screenshots might be outdated. * Take the time to click around and discover what's available and what's new after an update. ## Dropbox * You can use as many Dropboxes as you want. They operate as a cloud. I highly suggest you rez one copy of your Dropbox from another location to ensure delivery is always possible in case the original region is unavailable. * A blue LED will be displayed in front of Dropbox. To get the latest features, always check occasionally if an update is available. * EasyBloggers provides a free location to rez your dropbox, contact Luke Rowley in-world to learn more. ## Subscription * Are you looking to upgrade your subscription to a higher plan or add an add-on to your current package? Visit `Settings` > `Subscription` and click `Upgrade your subscription or purchase add-ons`. * If your subscription expires, your brand will return to the free package. * **Your data will NEVER be deleted.** # More features # Posts Posts are a collection of links, linked to a particular product. If needed, a blogger can request an extension of the deadline. Posts are primarily created by bloggers, often including multiple links at once, typically redirecting to platforms like Primfeed or Facebook. Initially, posts are set to a `In Progress` status and will remain so until the blogger completes the post. This keeps the process transparent and allows for seamless progress tracking. {% hint style="info" %} If a product has an associated deadline and a blogger fails to complete the corresponding post before its deadline, the post's status will change to `Missed Deadline.` Following this, the blogger won't be able to request a new item from the store until the situation is resolved. {% endhint %} {% hint style="success" %} For performance reasons, on your default posts view, we are applying default filters \ B**rands** * Accepted posts older than 1 month won't show. Please note that when you apply a filter to your view, this date filter will not be applied. {% endhint %}

## Review the post When a blogger has filled a post, an in-world notification will alert you. This allows you to review the URLs, provide feedback, and add comments as needed, maintaining communication and promoting a constructive working environment.

## Remove deadline Creators and managers can remove the deadline for a particular post, open the post, and click `Remove the deadline`.

# Members Manage your team of Bloggers and Friends, and send invitations to anyone to join your store, and review a blogger's progress with your products. EasyBloggers equips you with the tools to manage your team of Bloggers and Friends and send invitations to new members. It streamlines the process, eliminating the need for Bloggers to fill out forms and allowing you to personally invite specific talents based on their work.

On the Members page, while hovering the progress bar of a particular blogger, you are able to see the progress the blogger made with your products.

## Invite a blogger If the user does not exist in the system, it will automatically create an account and send the Blogger Package directly so they can connect and accept your invitation. **Make sure the user receiving this invitation is expecting the package.** This feature is automatically **available to all paid** Subscriptions (Free + Paid Add-ons, Starter, pro, and Ultra). However, if you are on a Free plan and want to invite someone, please contact Luke Rowley, and I will enable the feature for your store.

### Cancel an invitation To cancel an invitation to a blogger, click on the member card, then click Cancel, and confirm the cancellation by clicking “Cancel the invitation” # Mailbox The Mailbox is an in-store internal communication system designed for your brand to relay updates to your team members. ## Create and edit a mail EasyBloggers uses Markdown syntax to add depth and a degree of customization to your messages. If you prefer simplicity, you can stick to plain text with new lines, but if you're feeling creative, let's explore the advanced editor:

You'll find your raw text on the editor's left side. This is where the body of your mail and raw Markdown syntax live. You'll see a rendered version of your text and Markdown syntax on the right. From a Blogger's perspective, this is how it'll appear:

### Important Mail Mail marked as important will always appear at the top of the list. It will be highlighted with a yellow star and background.

{% hint style="info" %} Any important emails will be rollback to normal after 7 days of its creation. {% endhint %} # Settings # Audit Log Each brand owner has access to their store audit log, which contains key actions performed by themselves, the managers, bloggers, or friends inside the brand. This includes all actions done on: * Bloggers * Applications * Invitations * Products * Mailbox * Managers * Friends * Settings * Product Categories # Co-owners With co-owners, you can share the content of your Dropboxes with a specific store. This is super useful if your store often collaborates or if you have multiple avatars working for the same brand. To add your first co-owner, visit your store's Settings, go to General, and click Add a co-owner. Once it's done, your co-owner will be able to assign a Dropbox to your store, which can be used to deliver the products, demos, or notecards for your notifications. {% hint style="danger" %} Please note that **only one brand** is allowed under an active subscription. {% endhint %} # Preferences

## **Products limitation** This setting protects the creators. EasyBloggers is aware that malicious bloggers can exist, and the Product limitations setting can help prevent them. It restricts the quantity of products a blogger can acquire at one time. For instance, if the limit is 3, the blogger can request 3 products simultaneously. If they want to take a fourth product, they must have an accepted post for one of the 3 products they took first. It's important to note that posts categorized as In Progress or Waiting For Review are not considered completed. {% hint style="info" %} Friends are not affected by this setting. They have no limit to how many products they can request at once. {% endhint %} ### Timeout priority **- Stores** Priority is a way to make sure that bloggers always blog about certain products first. It restricts their ability to request delivery for normal priority products if there are higher priority products for which they didn't have an accepted post. When setting priority on your products, usually, it's only temporary. Creators often first release their products at events for a fixed amount of time (1 month), and then the creations are available at the main store. To prevent brands from always returning to each product and changing the priority manually, EasyBloggers includes a Timeout priority setting. This setting will reset the priority of each “timed out” product to Normal. The choices are between Never and **1 year**. ### Minimum post per month Stores can set a requirement for each blogger to make sure they are active. While this is optional, EasyBloggers encourages you to set at least 1 post per month. When you set a minimum count of posts per month on your Members page, you can quickly see if a blogger is following the requirement with the status at the bottom of their card.

# Product Categories Organize your products and bloggers into distinct categories, it's a great help if your store has diverse product lines (e.g., male/female products, accessories). ### Create a category Store owners, co-owners and managers can create product categories: 1. With your store selected, click on **Settings** → **Product Categories** 2. Click **Edit** to enter edit mode 3. Click **Add a category** button 4. Enter a category name (e.g., "Male", "Female", "Accessories") 5. Click **Create** ### Assigning Categories to Products **Individual Product Assignment:** 1. Navigate to **Products** 2. Create a new product or edit an existing one 3. In the product form, select one or more categories 4. Save the product **Batch Category Assignment:** 1. Navigate to **Products** 2. Select multiple products using checkboxes 3. Click **Assign Categories to Batch** button 4. Select the categories to assign 5. Confirm the assignment {% hint style="info" %} If you don't see any category to assign to your products, make sure you created one in the settings before. {% endhint %} ### Assigning categories to bloggers There are three ways to assign categories to bloggers: #### **A. During Application Process:** When bloggers apply to join your store: * If your store has product categories, bloggers applying will see a category selection step * Bloggers can select which categories they want to blog for * If you have only 1 category, it's automatically assigned * If you have 2+ categories, applicants must select at least one #### **B. Individual Blogger Assignment:** 1. Navigate to **Members** 2. Click on the "+ Categories" button 3. Select/deselect categories in the dialog 4. Save changes #### **C. Batch Blogger Assignment:** 1. Navigate to **Members** 2. Click **Assign bloggers to category** button (top right) 3. Select the bloggers you want to assign 4. Select the category 5. Confirm the assignment {% hint style="info" %} Using the batch blogger assignment will replace all categories assigned to the selected bloggers. {% endhint %} ### How Bloggers See Products Once categories are assigned: * **Bloggers with assigned categories**: Can only see and request products that: * Have at least one category in common with their assigned categories, OR * Have no categories assigned (uncategorized products are visible to all) * **Example Scenario**: * Store has categories: "Male" and "Female" * Blogger A is assigned to "Male" category * Blogger B is assigned to "Female" category * Product 1 is tagged with "Male" → Only Blogger A can see it * Product 2 is tagged with "Female" → Only Blogger B can see it * Product 3 is tagged with both "Male" and "Female" → Both bloggers can see it * Product 4 has no categories → Both bloggers can see it # Dropboxes The dropboxes are what host your products, textures and notecards to use within the system. For brand owners with multiple stores, you can assign Dropbox individual Store. Go to your Dropboxes pages, select a Dropbox, and in the modal, click on the Stores you want to assign the Dropbox to. If you are a co-owner of another store, you can make the content of your Dropbox available to that store.

## Do you need a place to rez your dropboxes? Visit the [Dropbox Storage Facility](/easybloggers/getting-started/brands/more-features/dropbox-storage-facility). ## Debit permission If you activated your subscription's auto-renewal, a small green dollar sign will appear next to your Dropbox.

# Dropbox Storage Facility Move your dropboxes from your personal place or skybox to their new place, the EasyBloggers Dropbox Storage Facility, which is included in every EasyBloggers' plan.

One of the perks of using EasyBloggers is access to the Dropbox Storage Facility. The EasyBloggers Dropbox Storage Facility is a place where every designer can come and rez their Dropbox to store their products for use on EasyBloggers. It’s free and included in your plan. Note that if you need more space, you can always rent additional tables on the left of the facility. The number of dropboxes you are allowed to rez depends on the plan you are using for your store. See more at . To require access, contact Luke Rowley in-world, and I will send the group as soon as possible. # Bloggers As bloggers in EasyBloggers, you can request the delivery of products from the brands you are part of. EasyBloggers helps you to manage and review the progress of your tasks to never forget about blogging a product. To get started, you must first join a brand. Click `Join a brand` below. # Join a brand {% tabs %} {% tab title="Fill a blogger application" %}

When brands are looking for bloggers, they usually open their bloggers' application and share the link to the form on their social media. In that case, you only need to fill out their form and wait for their answer. If it's positive, the system will send you an in-world notification (and optionally a notecard, depending on the brand's setting). If you're new to EasyBloggers, you will receive a package from the system which contains a HUD to use to login to your account. Use it, and you're ready to go! {% endtab %} {% tab title="Get invited" %}

Brands can directly invite you from their interface. In that case, you will receive an in-world notification from the system. Once you're logged in, on the left, click `Invitations` to review the invitations you've received from brands, and it's up to you to accept or reject them. Click on the three dots on the right and make your choice. {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} # Request a product Once you are part of a brand, you have access to their products from the left navigation bar.

You can review a product's details by clicking on it. This includes the product locations, priority, and deadline. {% hint style="warning" %} Read carefully the terms for the deadline. {% endhint %} Brands can use the priority system to ensure you take their latest releases.

Click `Deliver the product`, and a new `In progress` post is automatically created. # Review and fill your posts When you request a new product, the system will automatically create a In progress post with the product and the deadline associated with it.

Brands use deadlines to ensure that posts are completed in a timely manner. You will receive one notecard for 1, 2, 3, and 5 days. But don't worry, you won't get spammed by the notecards: If you have, let's say, 3 posts with 1 day left, you will only receive 1 notecard. However, for every post that goes into the status `MissedDeadline`. You will receive 1 notecard per post, regardless of whether you received one today.

{% hint style="success" %} For performance reasons, on your default posts view, we are applying default filters. * Accepted posts older than 2 months won't show. Please note that when you apply a filter to your view, this date filter will not be applied. {% endhint %} ## Request an extension of the deadline We understand that life can happen, and missing a deadline can be particularly frustrating due to some unexpected real-life events. Bloggers can request a deadline extension directly from the post. The store will then have the discretion to approve or decline this request.

{% hint style="info" %} If you need to tell your sponsors that you're going away or taking a few days of holiday and need to extend all your deadlines, you can [change your status](/easybloggers/user-status-for-your-time-away-and-holidays), which will extend all your current deadlines. {% endhint %} # Events Replace your bloggers' room with EasyBloggers for Events, the best way to manage your team of designers, managers, and bloggers. Using EasyBloggers for Events allows you to upgrade your event and save a lot of time managing it. Almost all the steps from the [Getting Started](/easybloggers/getting-started/brands) for Brands are identical to Events. However, there are a few extra differences for your needs. ### EasyBloggers for Events features * `Bloggers Application Form`: Make your own form for bloggers to fill, and forget about Google Form. You can add up to 20 custom questions and accept or reject applications right from your app. * `Designers Application Form`: Same functionality as the Bloggers Application Form, but this time it's for designers. Designers need to connect to their EasyBloggers account to use the form, which makes sure no one can pretend to be them.

### How does it work for designers? To use EasyBloggers for Events, designers must have a store on EasyBloggers. They can do so by following the [Getting Started](/easybloggers/getting-started/brands) tutorial, which takes 5-10 minutes to set up. Once they have their store setup, they can fill your `Designers Application Form`. Accept them into your event, and it will unlock a new field in their product creation, `Event`. Selecting your event and saving the change will allow your bloggers to take this product.

### Notes * The event subscription is per event and contains unlimited designers and bloggers. See more details on the pricing at * The event owner and managers are the only ones who can manage a post made by the event's bloggers' team. * When the product is linked to an event, the prioritization, deadlines, and optional blogging are ignored by the bloggers from the event. * The stores with free subscriptions can access and apply to your event; however, they have the same limited features as any store with a free subscription. * Events have an option to prevent designers to assign products to their event. * The event has access to two more notifications: `Designer Application Accepted` and `Designer Application Rejected`, they are accessible from the `Settings` > `Event` > `Notifications`. * After each round, you can click a button to remove all products from your event. ### I'm an event, and I'm interested! I'm happy to hear that! Currently, EasyBloggers for Events cannot be purchased by yourself. Please get in touch with Luke Rowley in-world, and I will be happy to assist you during the setup of your event. # Store Selector Each user are able to select the store and role they want to interact on EasyBloggers. If you are a brand owner, manager, or blogger, you can choose the store with which you want to work. You'll see an icon with two arrows at the top left of your screen when available. When you click on it, a list of the stores will appear, and you can select one. Click on your name to see your blogger view.

## Dropboxes - Creators For creators, when you have multiple stores, you can assign Dropboxes to each individual Store you own. Go on your Dropboxes pages, select a Dropbox, and in the modal, you can click on the Stores you want to assign the Dropbox to

{% hint style="info" %} If you assign a Dropbox to store 1 and interact with store 2, you won't be able to see the content of the Dropbox assigned to the first store. {% endhint %} # User Status, for your time away and holidays User Status is the new way to inform your sponsors about your time away and holidays from Second Life™ and EasyBloggers. ## Change your status Everyone on EasyBloggers can change their status. To do so, click on your picture at the top right and click "Update your status."

In this menu, you can describe why you must go away and the number of days.

When you've filled in the fields and clicked "Update your status", any in-progress deadline will be updated to be extended by the number of days you need to be away across all your sponsors, you don't need to ask for any permission. ## Stores and events On the member's page, you will see the active status of a blogger at the bottom of their card, and if you hover over the status with your mouse, you can see the reason. Do you think a blogger is abusing the system? Click on their profile and review the "Previous status" on their profile at the bottom.

## Privacy By default, only the date of your return will be shown to everyone. If you are part of a brand, the managers can see the reason for your time off and your previous time off on your profile to prevent abuse. # Request a brand or blogger package

Depending on the highest role you have on the system (Creators, Managers, Bloggers, or Friends), you will receive the corresponding package. While all packages contain the Passwordless Login HUD to connect to the system with one click, the Creator package contains the Dropbox necessary to store your products in it. # Change the theme EasyBloggers includes three theme options: Dark, Light, or Sync with OS. Choose the one that best suits you. Open your Settings and go to Profile, then choose your preferred option.

# Leave a store To leave a store, first go to the store's profile. From there, you will see a button, "Leave the store". Click on it, and fill up the comment. {% hint style="info" %} You must include a comment explaining why you are leaving the store. This is important, and it allows the store to improve in the future. {% endhint %}

After that, it will ask you the bot type. For EasySupport and if you don't plan to use, choosing the `Model bot` is enough. You can see the pricing and other information about `Standard` and `Model` bot [here](https://www.mysmartbots.com/docs/Personal_Bots?by=6569290).

Click `Confirm` and your bot is now created. To activate it, you need to make the first payment. Visit and click the SmartBots terminal.

Then select `Bots` and follow the instructions.

Once you have make the first payment, your bot is activated and it's now time to setup the bot on EasySupport. # Setting up your bot With your SmartBots ready, it's time to connect it to EasySupport. ## Purchase the script for SmartBots (it's free) First of all, you will need to purchase the EasySupport script from the SmartBots marketplace (the script is free). To do that, visit [the SmartBots marketplace](https://store.mysmartbots.com/store/item/206/primeasy__easysupport?by=6569290). Then click **`Buy`**

Then confirm your purchase

Your purchase should now be available on the SmartBots Playground. ## Active the purchased script Visit [https://play.mysmartbots.com/](https://play.mysmartbots.com/?by=6569290) and on the left of your screen, you should see `Purchased`. Clicking on that displays the scripts you purchased on the SmartBots store. Click on `Primeasy - EasySupport` then click on confirm when it asks for the script permissions to send `INSTANT_MESSAGE`

Then select your bot and click `Assign bot`

# Getting Started Say hello to your next subscribers system, EasySubscribers, the easiest web-based subscribers system on the grid. EasySubscribers is the second web-based product from Kynno, the brand dedicated to help designers or events on the grid to grow their brands through clean and easy to use web products. It allows you to gather a list of subscribers in three ways: * Using an import system from your old system. Export your current list of subscribers into a `.csv` file and import it directly in EasySubscribers. * Manually add an avatar. * Avatars can click on the kiosk at your mainstore or public location to subscribe.

# Subscribers Subscribers are the people interested to your newsletters. There are three ways to get subscribers for your brand: * Using an import system from your old system. Export your current list of subscribers into a `.csv` file and import it directly in EasySubscribers. * Manually add an avatar. * Avatars can click on the kiosk at your mainstore or public location to subscribe. {% hint style="danger" %} It's important to note that you can only include subscribers who have willingly **OPTED IN** to receive messages from you. For instance, individuals who have purchased items or those on a visitor list without explicit opt-in **DO NOT MEET** the criteria. Spamming is against the ToS of Second Life, and your access to EasySubscribers could be **terminated** if there is any abuse. {% endhint %} ## Add a subscriber From your interface, you can click on the button Add a subscriber and a modal will appear. From there, depending on what you want to do, you can either manually enter an avatar name or import a .csv file. If you manually enter a name, the avatar will be checked, and corrected if necessary. (Incorrect letter cases, for example)

{% hint style="warning" %} If you decide to import a file, your .csv file MUST follow the following format: * The format of the line must be: `name,uuid` * name and uuid must be separate by a the character `,` * One avatar per line * No header
If you have an issue with the import of your file, or if you are not sure, please contact me, `Luke Rowley` and I will be happy to assist you. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} If you try to import a file containing more subscribers than your current subscription allows, the system will only import the number of subscribers you are allowing to have. {% endhint %} ## Unsubscribe someone as the owner Click the red cross next to the subscriber name, and confirm.

## Unsubscribe from a brand Sometimes you are just not interested anymore in a brand you previously subscribed to, and that's fine. To make it easy for everyone, EasySubscribers have two ways to unsubscribe from a brand: * You can visit their mainstore or public location, and click on the EasySubscribers Kiosk. * **Unique, and exclusive to EasySubscribers**: Included in each newsletter, you have a public link that you can click to unsubscribe, you won't have to manually unsubscribe someone who does not want to be part of your subscribers list anymore. If you click on the link to unsubscribe from the message of a newsletter, you will see this **completely** optional form to give a reason to the brand of why you decided to unsubscribed.

## Kiosk Each brand in their package receives a kiosk they can rez where they want. It also includes the full perm texture if you want to personalize it. {% hint style="info" %} To enable the kiosk, you have to click on it, and select the store you want it to be assigned to. {% endhint %}

# Newsletters The newsletters are what contain the big news you want to share with your subscribers. Start to create and edit your first one, then publish it using one of your dropbox. ## Create a newsletter Each newsletter must contain a title and a message. The message is limited to 700 characters, and the title is just here for you, to see it on your listing. While it's not necessary to create it, you can assign a Dropbox (minimum v1.3) to dispatch this newsletter. When selecting a dropbox, a second dropdown will appear, displaying the content of this dropbox. It's optional, but you can include a notecard along with your message. {% hint style="info" %} You can include `{name}` in your message, and it will use the firstname of the avatar. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} The dropboxes are the same as the one you are using for EasyBloggers. Easy! {% endhint %}

## Publish a newsletter On the listing of your newsletters, you can publish paused and draft newsletters as long as they have a dropbox assigned.

{% hint style="info" %} Each newsletter contains a personalized link to easily unsubscribe for the subscriber. Clicking on this link, they can fill a reason of why they unsubscribe, which is displayed on their name in your subscribers list. {% endhint %} ## Pause a newsletter Mistakes happen, and you might want to edit your newsletter you just published. Each in progress newsletter can be paused during their publishing, and then edited.

# Advanced Online Board Display the online status of anyone. This is a resizeable and modifiable mesh online status indicator board. It includes some cool features: * You can assign any user to it. Click on it, `Settings` -> `Set User` and then, you can enter UUID or their Second Life name. (Yes, their Second Life name, **NOT** their Display name.) * You can allow users to register to the board for being notify when the user assigned to the board come online. (A limit of 100 different users at once is set.) * Users can request a notecard from the board. (You need to set `Allow Notecard` in the board's settings and drop a notecard in the board. The script will send the first notecard in the board.) * You are able to use your own object. However, the "Online" and "Offline texture won't appear and the Online Texture feature is disabled as well. (You can still display your status using the `FloatingT` option in the settings.) * You can enable the `Auto Pic` option to let the script use the user's profile picture. If you want to set a custom picture, please deactivate the option in the Settings. {% hint style="info" %} You are able to transfer your settings between boards. Simply copy and paste the description between boards. If your board contains only 1 prim, use the description of the **root prim**. If you board contains more than 1 prim, please use the description of the link prim **2**. {% endhint %} # EasyTextures Easily customise your creations! EasyTextures is a tool allowing you to customize your creations. Thanks to a HUD, your customers will be able to retexture your creation as you wish. It comes with 4 scripts, one script for the object, one for the HUD and two `.config` scripts. It's developed for any kind of objects, such as prim, sculpt, mesh clothes etc. We’ve tried to make this product as easy to use as possible, but you will need some basic knowledge of object creation. A demo is also available [here](https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Kynno-EasyTextures-DEMO/20198688), it contains all the features of this full version. You are just not allowed to release any product or transfer the script to another avatar. ### Features * It is fast, really fast.

You can configure them as you want, per prims and/or faces. * With one button, you can change multiple prims and/or faces * Allow prims to be retextured creating your own HUD * Allows multi-attachments to be textured at the same time * Gives objects, opens URLs, opens SLURL, sends group link in local chat, faces rotation (HUD) * No link required, you can put this script inside a single prim * Full support for Meshes and Sculpts * Multi prims retexture * Communications between objects and HUD are secure * No delay between each texture change * Optional click on the object to apply textures * Now includes a DEMO feature. Your customer will be able to use your HUDs in-world before any purchase. * You can now change the color of your object * You can now change the brightness * You can now change the glow * You can now set a point of light. Useful for lamps. * Support for PRIM\_BUMP\_SHINY, see * **NEW!** PBR Materials support is here! You can configure them as you want, per prims and/or faces. See To buy it, visit or visit our [mainstore](https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Printemps/252/191/28) # Requirements {% hint style="warning" %} **You must be the creator of the HUD and the object**. If you are using a full perm set, just create a prim with your name and link it as root prim {% endhint %} {% hint style="warning" %} A basic knowledge of object creation is required. {% endhint %} To navigate through this tutorial, use the left panel or click on the bottom of the page, on **Next.** We recommend that you take the time to read everything thoroughly and go steady. # First steps {% hint style="danger" %} **Remember:** All scripts **MUST** be **no modify** and **no transfer/copy** or **no copy/transfer** {% endhint %} {% hint style="danger" %} **Remember:** You **MUST** read your local chat. This is how the script will tell you there is an issue with your configuration or not. {% endhint %} * Definitions → This part is important, if it's not already done, keep an eye on it while you're configuring your creation. * Creating an object → Will contain the information to create your HUD, step by step with everything you need to know. From easy to complex HUDs. # Definitions ### Instructions An instruction is a set of information defined by one line. It's split by a **;** character, it allows the script to properly read the data. This kind of line will define how you creation will retexture. In the below example, this line will retexture the prim named **button**, with the texture **cc72eb07-b8cb-be03-8635-1ad5d9afa5fd** on the faces **1** and **2**. ``` button;texture;1,2;4f089cf2-3e75-fa5f-d5f3-2d49fe92553d ``` ### Texture set A texture set is a block of code in the .config script. It contains at least one name and one or multiples instructions. In the below example, this texture set is called `redSet` and contains 1 instruction. ``` -redSet button;texture;1,2;4f089cf2-3e75-fa5f-d5f3-2d49fe92553d ``` ## All instructions ### HUD ``` // This line define the name of your creation between the script. // Remain this name simple.

I will use those number during the tutorial so you have a good idea of where you need to write your stuff. Line 10, it will be the name used by the scripts to talk to each other. That way, your specific textures to this object won't be applied on another one of your object using EasyTextures. {% hint style="warning" %} Line 12, **you need to replace my UUID with your avatar UUID,** it's a security feature. Be sure to have the quote remaining. {% endhint %} Line 16 to 25 are blank. It's normal, this is where you will enter your configuration. In the .config, you have only one option available at this time and it's `touchtoapply.` This option will allow your customers to click on the object before it can be retextured. If you need it, write `touchtoapply` within these lines, otherwise, we're done with the .config script. Save the script by clicking the button on the bottom right. Now, put the `Kynno - EasyTextures v3.0` script in your object. You might see this message ``` ⚠️ EasyTextures: The script should be no-transfer for the next owner. Please fix the permission or you won't be able to use it. ``` In this case, right click on the script and untick "Transfer" permission. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEs7V4Z4JjzWr72n58b%2F-MEsFaCx_hJ4Tm-zz8To%2F4Te1rJ2%5B1%5D.gif?alt=media\&token=8913f7d8-6458-43c7-814a-30bb3ca5b7a7) You should now see this message ``` [10:17:41] Astre - Damaged Cube White: Initializing EasyTextures...

We can now create our HUD. # HUD Your HUD will need to contain some information. I created a very basic HUD with 6 buttons that will apply a texture set. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsGxF-RJi2vmkyp3Dp%2F-MEsIYYGgDoxnErDNZg9%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=2d6b87f1-d209-4f02-ad15-3459aded7755) The black prim is the root prim of my HUD, it don't need to have a special name or description. The 6 blue button needs to be named `apply` this way, the HUD know he will needs to apply a texture set when your customers will click on one of the buttons. For now, leave their description empty. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsGxF-RJi2vmkyp3Dp%2F-MEsJY9ObDQkmyhpHFhV%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=0cceaf3d-f572-4be8-a9d6-68f273473c21) After you're done with this, untick `Edit linked` to select your complete HUD and then, put the `.config HUD` script into your HUD. Open the script by double clicking on it. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsNlPX3MhRfwKtl647%2F-MEsmiS2jDCLZuViDtLT%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=44b8f221-f6cc-4c67-9f6c-83491fd5038c) If you are not familiar with what you see, please go read the [Definitions](/products/easytextures/first-steps/definitions), it's important. Included out of the box, this .config HUD contains some basic instructions for you to start with. You can erase the data from line 20 to 39 included as we will create our own instructions. Same as the object, edit the line 10 with your `objectName` you put earlier in your object and line 12, put your own key. Line 13 is your secureKey. It is unique to your avatar and it is used to add more security to the system by encrypting your UUIDs. You can get your key by wearing the `Kynno - User Secure Key (wear/add)` and click on it. Now, let's create our own instructions. On my cube, I only want to change one texture on one face, it's a pretty basic example. (More complex examples will be able in [Examples](/products/easytextures/examples)) First of all, we need to create a new texture set in our .config HUD, to do that, simply enter the name of your texture set with a - before it. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsGxF-RJi2vmkyp3Dp%2F-MEsN6ziyEzitSnOZZBW%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=c5fbf042-ed47-4f63-ac3e-856f0bf9b4c9) Then, I want my prim named `Astre - Damaged Cube` to be retexture on all faces and I can do that by adding a texture instruction. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsNJR5IQcjQejek8Yr%2F-MEsNUKFnGNk4UuM_uqb%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=2ffa8eaf-7103-4363-8fab-e24c8676f987) Done! Before any save, I also want to add another set for another color, let's say black. I will repeat the same process that I did for the orange one. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsNJR5IQcjQejek8Yr%2F-MEsNgC_vcRpZRGNq-6y%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=29b1945f-4d95-44d8-8463-95456ba1312f) We have now two texture sets and we will be able to use our HUD soon! Save your `.config HUD` Now, put the script `Kynno - EasyTextures HUD v3.0` into your HUD and read your local chat. ``` // You should see something similar.

Select one of the `apply` button and in its description, enter the name of one of the color set, for example, orange. Then, on another button, enter the second texture set, black. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-MEsNlPX3MhRfwKtl647%2F-MEspOXzSgzEBV8WaiI8%2FAtynEVb%5B1%5D.gif?alt=media\&token=3d2428c2-2d63-42b1-acc8-10b85d96520f) Once you did that, you should be able to use your HUD.

It's basically set the UUID of your material, instead of setting each textures. * Apply one instruction to multiple prim links. Example: `root,link1,link2;texture;0...` ## 4.0 – 06/01/2024 – Introducing PBR Materials Support! ### Added I'm excited to announce that EasyTextures is one of the first HUD textures to support PBR! You can edit `PRIM_GLTF_BASE_COLOR`, `PRIM_GLTF_NORMAL`, `PRIM_GLTF_METALLIC_ROUGHNESS`, `PRIM_GLTF_EMISSIVE`. In the instructions, you can use `pbr_basecolor`, `pbr_normal`, `pbr_metallic`, `pbr_emissive`. For the default values and what you can use, please visit , you will be able to see all the options values you can set for each parameter. As usual, if you need any help setting up your `.config HUD`, you can contact Luke Rowley. ## 3.1.3 – 08/22/2022 ### Added * Support for `PRIM_BUMP_SHINY` see ## 3.1.2 – 08/18/2022 ### Added * By default, the HUD is no longer rezzable by customers. If you want to change this behavior, you can add the instruction `allow_rez` to your `.config HUD` script. ### Fixes * Fixed an issue where, when the .config HUD has plenty of instructions, it randomly stopped during the processing of your texture packs. ## 3.1.1 – 07/17/2021 ### Added * You can now use `ROOT` as prim name to target the prim root of your object. * You can add the instruction `ignore_not_existing_prim` in your `.config` to prevent the messages like ``ERROR: There is no prim named `something` in your object.`` to being displayed. # Face information Find information on the object and face you click. Drop the script into any object and then, simply click on the face or object you need to know the informations. After that, you should see something similar to this in your local chat: ``` [08:57:14] Kynno - Face Informations: Informations on click Prim name: Kynno - Face Informations Link number: 0 Face touched: 3 Color of face: <1, 1, 1> ``` # Item Giver Create a menu with the object available. Simply drop the script into an object and when you touch it, it will automatically create a menu for you to choose between the different objects available in the object content. ![](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-M1LKX5-XqfqVFEFRcCN%2F-M1LLSkerOALvfP5smMo%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=3beca3d8-a893-48c2-a8c8-375ea226ff3f) {% hint style="warning" %} The object needs to have the transfer permission {% endhint %} # Remote Posing Animates any avatar. {% hint style="warning" %} The DEMO version of this product contains a default set of animations. The object is also no modify so you are not able to put your own animations. {% endhint %} Simple Remote HUD that animates your avatar or another avatar. Just click on the black part of the HUD and choose an option: * Target: Choose someone to animate. (You are the default target) Poses: Choose a pose Search: Search a term that a pose contains. * Use the Play and Pause button on the HUD texture to play or pause the current animation. * Use the Previous and Next button to quickly play your animation and navigate into them. To organize your animation, don't hesitate to copy/paste the HUD and rename it, like this: * Remote Posing HUD - Sits * Remote Posing HUD - Ground Sits * Remote Posing HUD - Poses To add your animations: * Rez the HUD on the ground. * Add your animation into it. You can now find all of your animations in the `Poses` option. Poses are sorted alphabetically. The object is modify but the script is not, that's why you need to rez it to see the object modifiable. # Rotate HUD Rotate your HUD to any faces. Drop the `Kynno - Rotate HUD` script in the HUD's content. Once it's done, you need to setup the different button that will rotate your HUD. Each button, when you will click on it, will rotate your HUD to the rotation in the description of the clicked button. The buttons needs to have a name. It can be `rotate` or `rotate_attach`. The two names will rotate your HUD as expected but, if you need to rotate the HUD to a *default state* when an avatar wear your HUD, name **ONE** button `rotate_attach` and the HUD will rotate on attach. ![Tip: Turn the HUD as you want, select your HUD then click on the C to copy its rotation](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-M1LGEOz0qx_6ZX4vDx7%2F-M1LGW190Jzl5qz3Cg8j%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=e23ab8a7-2aa0-4326-80ed-cc57a49261de) ![Simple example](https://492503182-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LgKK6lQ7_MWTA01UU_m%2F-M1LHwsTCl18IXkiRhfw%2F-M1LJC-z5R3I8gfe74SK%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=2f89c152-bd17-4eee-bd9b-cf9aec12b1e8) {% hint style="info" %} An HUD example is included in the box {% endhint %} # Simple Unpack Let your customers using a HUD or a simple box to unpack your products. The unpack script is very simple to use. Just drop into your box the script and it will send the folder of all the stuff of your box. If you want to play an animation when the avatar wear your pack, include the script `Kynno - Unpack` otherwise, please use the `Kynno - Unpack (No animations)`. You can create a HUD with this script. You need to understand that you will set the different options with the name of the prims in your HUD. ### Example: If you want to send an object (Landmark, notecard or whatever) you will need to link a prim to your HUD that will be named "sendobject" and in description, the name of your object. If the customer click on this prim, it will send them the object. There are additional options: * Prim name: unpack * This will enable the HUD function, it won't send the folder on attach or rez but only by clicking on this prim named unpack * Prim name: group * Put the UUID of your group (and not the full link) in the description of this prim and it will display the direct link to join the group * Prim name: url * Put your link to open in the description of this prim (Such as facebook, flickr etc..) * Prim name: detach * This button will detach the HUD from the screen of the user * Prim name: sendobject * Will send the object that has the name set in the description * Prim name: namefolder * In description, put your custom folder name {% hint style="info" %} Two examples are included in the box {% endhint %} # Need more help?
