LiveBinders Tips & Tricks

We just changed the way the edit menus work on LiveBinders.  You can now switch tabs when you have an edit menu open. So if you are in one tab and change the tab color, you can now switch to another tab and change the tab color without closing the menu.  This should help you […]

We noticed recently that Google search was giving better results, when trying to find a specific binder, than our own internal search.  So we decided to try out Google search as our primary search tool.  Please let us know what you think.  Does this work for you?  Or would you like our original search back?  […]

We had a problem on the website yesterday and this morning.  We are going to turn off the thumbnails on the binders until we can get a more permanent fix up on the site this weekend.  We apologize for the problems.  We are gearing up for fall and expect to have all these issues resolved […]

We now have an easier way to add embed codes to a binder. This feature was a personal one for me.  I archive the links from the #PATUE chat each week and whenever I got a video or Slideshare presentation, I would just groan.  It took too many steps to insert the embed codes from […]

We are always trying to make the process of creating and editing binders smoother and easier for you. We’ve had a lot of input that changing the binder cover was not intuitive, so we have redesigned that interface to make it easier to upload a binder cover or to pick a fun Flickr image to […]

It’s that time of year again when you get to share with us a binder that you found really helpful or influential to you or your class. For the nominating process, first you share with us those helpful binders and then we will have a short voting period. When you nominate a binder, please describe […]

Thank you to those who provided early feedback on our new editor!  We believe this update will make it easier for you to edit your binders.  Here are some highlights of this release: New editor layout Simple Dropbox integration Easy QR code insertion into your binder PDF files in the binder will no longer be […]

We love how LiveBinders has grown.  All the feature requests you have sent our way have made LiveBinders a much better product.  With all these new features, we still want to keep LiveBinders as simple as possible, so we recently redesigned the editor to make it easier use. This release will go live Sunday May […]

We have two recent changes at LiveBinders.  The first is a way to recover your binder if you delete it by accident, and the second is an update to how to create binder covers. Recover a Deleted Binder To undelete a binder, just look for the trashcan icon in your Dashboard to the left of your […]

We have a new version of our Android app available on the LiveBinders site.  You can now take pictures from your Android device and upload them directly into binders.  As an example, you can take pictures of student artwork and add it to a binder showcasing the entire project. This feature is also available on […]

We have a new feature in LiveBinders that you may notice right away when you open a binder.  On the top bar is the ability to search within a binder. This feature currently only searches tab names,.  We will eventually add the ability to search other content within the binder, but this should be enough […]
