February 15, 2008 00:14 :: Small but handy new feature
Just adding a few quick(ish) features before I get started on the collections which will take me a fair while to get through (sorting 1500 sets manually – fun!).
New for today is the first of the notification system – you can now get sent a mail whenever you get a message posted in your guest book or a private message arrives in your inbox. They’re inactive by default so if you want to make use of them, activate them by going to the same page where you update the rest of your profile info (link is on your profile page in the bottom left corner of the box with all your personal info in it).
Cheers,
Jon

Yeah, I think that’s exactly the problem.
I’ve just checked and other than me only 12 people have activated these notification mails.
What I’m planning on doing is adding an option to enable them when you post in someone’s guestbook or send a private message, plus I think I’m going to make the latest news bulletin a bit more visible on the home page as I’m not sure if everyone’s noticing and reading messages like these.
I also sometimes wonder if there’s some paranoia that makes people instinctively opt out of any emailing thinking that if you say yes to receiving any sort of mail that’s going open the flood gates for a ton of spam.
Like the new site? Come tell me what you think on my guestbook, having problems? Check out the help page.
