New features of VK. Leave the field empty

Would you like to learn about some useful functions of the mega-popular social network VKontakte in our latitudes? Then, read about the seven hidden features of VK and use the knowledge you gain now!

Quite recently we wrote about. There, everything was solved by installing a special plugin, which automatically added the functionality we needed, among which, downloading media files is only a small part of the improvements...

However, not always and not everyone has the opportunity to install something on the computer from which they access the Internet... And it turns out that in most cases it is far from necessary to use third party software, - the main thing is to know some secrets and be able to use them;)

Therefore, I bring to your attention a small but useful selection of tips that will allow you to significantly diversify your stay on VKontakte :)

Changing the language

And we’ll start with perhaps the most useless, but fun function - changing the interface language of our account. Previously, there were links in the “footer” (the very bottom of the page) of the social network quick change languages, among which there were two funny variants of Russian: “Pre-revolutionary” and “Soviet”.

Then Contact underwent a redesign and some of the “chips”, among which were the mentioned interface options, disappeared somewhere. But, in fact, everything remained in place, it was just moved :) Soviet and pre-revolutionary Contact can still be turned on. To do this, go to "My Settings" and at the bottom in the "Language" drop-down list two last paragraph and will be our cherished parameters :)

Choose the right option design, click the "Apply" button and get the desired result. The only pity is that your friends will not see or appreciate your new interface, since it is visible only to you. However, in a group you can also laugh, for example, by changing the language of one of your comrades on his computer to a pre-revolutionary one, and calmly observing the reaction :).

By the way, on the same first settings tab (“General”) you can also change the address of your page like “vk.com/id_page_number” to a more readable and memorable option like “vk.com/vasya_pupkin”. To do this, just enter the desired name of your account in the “Page Address” field, just above the list of languages.

How to add symbols and underscores in messages

If the change in the interface language will be visible only to us, then now I propose to study the question of what can be done in Contact so that everyone can see it :) Specifically, I mean the possibility of formatting text in your messages. After the last redesign (around April-May), many of the text formatting functions were eliminated, but some remained...

The general concept of formatting VKontakte text is as follows: before the letter you need in a certain way highlight, put special code, starting with characters and ending with a specific number with a colon at the end. In practice, it looks something like this (we enter the example without quotes): "͠п͠р͠и͠в͠е͠т":

In addition to the wavy overline, the following codes also work now:

  • ́ - stress (placed before the letter we want to emphasize and works only once in one word);
  • - non-breaking space(replaced with an empty character and allows, for example, to send empty message);
  • ¯ - overlining with a solid, straight line;
  • ̅ - dotted line.

On at the moment formatting is all, however, it is worth mentioning that VKontakte codes partially coincide with popular ALT codes. If anyone doesn’t know yet, the ALT code is special set numbers that are entered with numeric keypad(block of buttons with numbers on the right) with the ALT key. As long as the button is pressed, we can enter certain numbers, which will not be visible, but as soon as we release the key, a certain symbol will appear.

So... By experimenting with the numbers after, you can get interesting results. For example, code © will give us a copyright icon - :)

Wall posts visible only to friends

Since we are talking about messages, it is worth mentioning one far from obvious, but useful function, such as hiding information on the wall from all visitors except friends. If you try to do this during normal editing from “My Page,” then you will not succeed, since the required option is not available anywhere.

Someone may rightly note that in Settings, in the “Privacy” (second) tab, you can configure it so that only friends (or no one at all :)) can view the wall. But it will be global setting. But what if you want to hide only a single post?

It turns out that this is possible and not at all difficult. You just need to know where to look :) And you need to look in the “All entries” section! You can get into it if you click on the inscription on your page that displays the number of posts on the wall (top left above the “What’s new with you?” field). This will open a page displaying only your wall and an expanded news entry field:

Under the news entry field we will have the treasured “only for friends” checkbox. We activate it, publish the news and it will be invisible to everyone who is not on your friends list!

The only caveat is that you will no longer be able to hide previously added news. You can only hide new posts that you publish directly on your wall, which has an address like “vk.com/wallyourID”.

How to find out who visits you most often

There are a lot of connections with friends on VKontakte various issues... For example, officially we cannot find out which of our friends visited our page. For this purpose, VKontakte has dozens of applications that, with varying degrees of reliability, show who allegedly visited you. However, in reality, most often such applications do not work.

It turns out that there is quite real way find out who's in lately most often came to see you, even without third party applications of dubious quality. True, it is not known what degree of reliability there is in this method, since you can only check by asking people directly whether they visited you. Although, everything coincided for me, so I’ll tell you about the method, and it’s up to you :)

So, the first thing we need to do is go to “My Settings” and at the very bottom of the page find the inscription “You can delete your page.” Click on the link in this caption and go to the page for deleting your account:

There is no need to delete anything! We are only interested in the item “No one comments on my page.” We select it and in the field with a standard answer, the system will give us the names of two people who have visited your page recently :) If you want to find out who else, besides these two, visited you, repeat the procedure and get the names of another couple of visitors. We can repeat this until we count everyone! I got 7 people in a day - it seems to be true, although who will understand their developers :).

How to delete a friend request

The last situation related to friends, which often arises among VK users, is friend requests from strangers of dubious activity :). Previously, there was a button that allowed you to directly delete any add request. Today we are offered only two options: either add or remain as subscribers...

Subscribers will not be able to write messages to you directly, but will be able to read and comment on your posts on the wall... If you do not want the person to receive information about all your new posts, then you can do the following...

We leave the person as subscribers, and then go to the “My subscribers” section (in the menu under the avatar on your page). A pop-up window will open with a list of people following you. We find the avatar of the person we just added, and in the right top corner Click on the “Block” button with a cross. Everything is ready - you won't be disturbed anymore :)

How to download music and videos

There are a whole bunch of services, plugins and full-fledged ones for downloading music and videos from Contact. However, there is a way to download media files directly without additional devices :). For this we Any will do a browser that allows you to view the code (usually viewing the code is called by pressing the key combination CTRL+U).

To download music, go to the “My audio recordings” section and look for the track that we want to download. For speed, copy its name and call the page code using the context menu (in Chrome this is the “View page code” item) or the above-mentioned combination (works in all popular browsers). Call the search by code (CTRL+F) and paste the copied name of the desired song (if there are several of them, then scroll through the code manually):

To make the search easier, you need to know that all the links we need are in the block with id="audios list". Now we find the name of the desired song, and the link to it will be in the block above in the block with the class class="play_btn fl_l". Copy the link, starting with "http" and ending with ".mp3", create new tab, paste this link into address bar and press Enter.

In some browsers (mostly old ones), after this manipulation the download will start immediately, and in some a player will appear. If you start playing, you need to call context menu and in it activate the “Save As” item. A standard save dialog will appear, in which you can select the location where the file will be downloaded and give it a normal name.

To download a video, we need to add it to “My Videos,” open it for playback and quickly press CTRL+U to access the code. Videos in Contact can be stored in two formats: .mp4 or .flv. We enter both options into the search in turn and look at the result. You should find a link like this:

As you can see, it is not stored in completely working condition. Specifically, its performance is hampered by backslashes, which appear three in front of forward slashes. We need to copy the link, starting with "http" and ending with ".mp4" or ".flv", and then paste it into the address bar and remove the extra groups of slashes. Then the algorithm is the same as for links to music: either the video will immediately start downloading to the default downloads folder, or the player will appear and we can save the video through the context menu.

The only thing worth saying is that we can download a video in this way only if it is uploaded to one of the servers of VK.com, VK.me or friendly video hosting sites, but not YouTube or RuTube. And one more thing:) For some videos there are several links - they are preceded by the codes url240, url360, url480 or url720. These numbers mean resolution, and therefore video quality;).

Status "Online from a mobile device" on a PC

One more simple trick for a snack :) Recently, VKontakte, in addition to the “Online” status, also began to display the “Online with” status mobile device", displayed if you are surfing the network from a phone or tablet. Some comrades immediately “got the trick” and began to boast that they have cool tablets and smartphones. Naturally, they cite their status as proof :)

But the status, if necessary, can be obtained quite easily if your browser is - or similar (a new one will also do :)).

We need to go to the browser menu and find the “Tools” - “Developer Tools” item there (also called by the keyboard shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+I). Now in the panel that opens, activate the “Emulation” section and in the “Device” tab, select from the list the device that we want to emulate. I chose Google Nexus 10, because this tablet has quite high resolution screen and with such a resolution it will be comfortable to work on a regular monitor.

Now all that remains is to click the “Emulate” button and reload the Contact page. You will be automatically transferred to mobile version site, and next to your name there will be a status icon in the form of a mobile phone :) Close the “Developer Tools” panel and last step switch to the full version of the site by clicking the button " Full version" in the left menu below. Although, if you are satisfied with the mobile version, you can leave it...

Conclusions

Our mini-excursion to hidden possibilities VKontakte. In fact, there are many more secrets in VK, but it is unrealistic to know them all! And the obsolescence of certain features occurs quite rapidly. While this article was being written, for example, VKontakte returned the function for selecting a language from the site’s footer :) And the article was written in only two days...

In a word, you can’t keep track of everything, so we make the most of today what we can still use, and we’ll see what will happen tomorrow :) Fast surfing and more friends with whom you can communicate on any topic!

Good afternoon, friends. In this article we will look at the capabilities of the social network “VKontakte”.

It’s not for nothing that they say that modern doctors have even identified this type of addiction – addiction to social networks. Nowadays, part of our lives has been moved to virtual world online, and it’s hard to do anything about it. So, let's go... Let's see what kind of virtual life this is and what you can do there :)

What capabilities does VKontakte have?

Communication: sending messages, creating news in groups, commenting

On the social network “VKontakte” you can communicate in any way convenient for you. The first, the simplest– this is between two people or a group of users (). This is, so to speak, private communication in a narrow circle of people. For example, you can chat with a friend or create collective conversation according to interests. Any conversation has a wide range of functions - from basic sending messages (by the way, messages can be not only text, but also voice) to attaching media files (photos, videos and audio materials), sending gifts, marking places on maps and expressing emotions using emoticons and stickers.

Second way- this is commenting. You can comment on anything - be it a photo, video, news or. Thus, communication can also take place in the form of discussion. For example, someone posted a video or some news. You left a comment under it, then another person commented, etc. In this way, communication is structured in the form of discussions of any materials or news.

Third way communication – creating news in groups and on public pages. You can convey some information to people using , create a poll and provoke a discussion. This method is directly related to the second method and provides great opportunities to discuss anything.

As we can see, the communication possibilities on VKontakte are almost limitless and are available to any user of the social network :)

Search for new acquaintances

Many people use social networks as a platform for meeting new people. This could be romantic dating, searching for people with similar interests, searching for business partners or services or goods.

In the meantime, one thing can be said - the possibilities for meeting and finding old acquaintances and friends in VK are truly endless. You can also find new acquaintances based on interests and hobbies, and maybe even find your soulmate. You can search either simply through search or by various parameters. You can also find new friends with similar interests through thematic groups and public pages.

Create and share media files

The possibilities of social networks are not limited to communication alone. Here you can upload your own photos or videos, upload music or. Please remember that all media files you download will be included in general access, unless you restrict access to them in the page settings. Since the visual part during communication is also very important, most users will have a lot of photo albums reflecting their life. Previously, we went to visit people to look at photographs, now it’s enough to go to the person’s page and go to the “Photo” section. The same can be done with video recordings. Distinctive feature social networks is that all media files can not only be uploaded, but also shared - for example. in news, comments or personal messages. You can also comment on photos and videos, which takes the communication process to a new level.

Using social media content

On VKontakte (and other social networks) you can easily listen to music, watch some videos or even entire films, find the documents or photographs you need. The good thing is that you don't need third-party sites or resources. While communicating on VK, you can simultaneously listen to music or watch a movie here. All this is done to ensure that people’s needs are satisfied within one site, and a person remains on one resource for as long as possible without resorting to the help of others.

Creation of groups, public pages and news. Dissemination of information

“VKontakte” can truly be called huge news portal. Every day, a great variety of different news is created in groups and public pages, as well as on user walls. Thus, a colossal amount of information circulates on the social network. Many active users Contacts now don’t even go to news sites - it’s enough to subscribe to several large news groups to receive the latest news instantly. In addition, any news can be spread through reposting. For example, imagine that a person has gone missing, and a search group is posting information about the missing person. Caring people repost the post to themselves ( in simple words– post it on their wall, in their group, or send the news via private message). Thus, information is constantly disseminated.

Selling goods or services

Many people create mini-shops on social networks or advertise on own groups goods or services. Imagine, for example, that you are a wedding photographer. You can easily create a group where you will post your work, and you can also create a page there with information about prices and working conditions. If you sell products of your own production (for example, home-baked cakes), you can post photographs of your culinary delights, descriptions and prices in the group. By modern means You can even advertise and promote your products and services with your contact. Here we discover another wonderful function of social networks - a wonderful platform for advertising and business.

Games and applications

Are you bored on the road or in queues? VKontakte is full of all sorts of games and applications that will help brighten up your leisure time. Previously, there were “Tetris” and “Well, wait a minute,” but now all you need is one smartphone and registration on a social network, and you will find any game to suit your taste.

The capabilities of VKontakte are impressive!

Isn't that impressive?! From all of the above, we can conclude that the possibilities of VKontakte are truly limitless. Here you can do whatever your heart desires. It’s no wonder that social networks have become so wildly popular these days. And it’s true - it’s only worth it, and on your computer or smartphone powerful tool, with which you can do almost anything. VKontakte has a lot of tools and opportunities, which ones you use is up to you. Perhaps you will limit yourself only to communicating with friends, perhaps you will make VK the main source of news for you or a launching pad for business. It's up to you! Everything is in your hands! Welcome to the huge and virtual world called “VKontakte”! (:good:)

What should you not do on social networks?

Finally, I would like to talk about what you cannot (or should not) do on social networks. Naturally, it is always worth remembering that there are restrictions provided for by law. Russian Federation, and simply ethical standards. So, below is a small list of prohibitions and restrictions for VKontakte users.

  • insult other people;
  • post materials prohibited by Russian law: related to weapons, drugs, pornography, violence, etc.;
  • incite ethnic hatred, disclose state secrets, provoke unrest or hostility, etc.
  • promote extremism and terrorism;
  • openly discuss prohibited topics;
  • post prohibited symbols (for example, Nazi);
  • slander other people;

And if you just think logically, then you can’t do everything on social networks that you can’t do on ordinary life. Social media created for communication and exchange of information, business advertising and product promotion, and not for some “dirty” and unkind deeds.

In the next article we will find out. We wish you pleasant communication! 🙂
