'WIZZLEY TECH FINDS A BENEFIT TO USING INTERNET EXPLORER!'

It would be the most popular Wizzle on the site.  People would read it out of sheer disbelief.  Do it, Simon!  Do it!  Think of the traffic!

I think you should write this article, Jo. Simon is way too busy.

New look looks more user, reader and SEO friendly than before. I will miss some data from old Wizzley but you can't eat your cake and have one, right?

Congratulations on smooth change. We have been doing similar stuff on MUCH lower scale and I know how many things can go wrong:)

Hey this new look is a pleasant surprise!

It's more streamline and user friendly,as Tolovaj stated.

Nay, despite the temptation of getting incredibly rich from millions of readers, I really cannot write an article promoting Internet Explorer. This thing already cost me probably a few year of my live, hehe.

Thanks Paula for the feedback ... since I don't have an iPhone or anything alike, that feature was actually programmed without testing it ever on a real phone. Glad it works :-D If I had a real boss, he/she would probably have me whipped now for this, lol.

We'll polish up the pie chart in time. There's quite a lot of options we can twist at. It should show numbers though ... maybe wait till tomorrow Brandon. We keep an eye on this matter.

Hey, it's so nice to get all this feedback from you - really motivating! And we're already working on several other ideas. First though, we'll make Wizzley even faster than it already is. After switching our server setup, the recent lags have finally come to an end!

Why copy Pinterest? with the Pinboard layout

The directory is now disfunctional - try to find 'recipes for kids' - your time starts now!

It took 3.2 seconds.  Found them.   There's a search box at the top.

Why not "copy" Pinterest? It's the most successful thing ever. And if it helps our writers - why not go with the trend?

My search for 'recipes for kids' took 0.73 seconds and gave me 16 results.

Yes, but now find the category ('recipes for kids') - its disturbing that few of the 4 in the category appear in the search results. RIP the categories.

Imitation is pathetic and kills creativity and respect. Wizzley needs a WOW factor - not a Pinboard

What do you mean, Lana?

Did you create modules and they disappeared?

No. I can't find them. I mean, there's no modules to pick from. the edit page just shows me the intro and the first text box. That's it. Nothing else. I cleaned the cache twice and restarted the browser. Should I be using IE? Undecided

Top right - a box with our list of modules. Can't you see those?

HA! My 2000th forum post!

Thank you very much for the lecture, John.

We'll make sure to consult with you before the next update.   Smile

Congratulations, Chef!

Well,  there was nothing there, but the page looked like it was running off to the right but there was no scroll bar at the bottom. I hit zoom out in my menu bar and it popped up. Guess I can publish after all. Thanks for telling me where to look.

Happy dance, happy dance....

 

Gotta walk dogs first though.

When you pin an image from the home page or one of the directory pages it does not link to the source page. I think this may be a problem (?) and kind of defeats the purpose of the Pinboard, at least from the author's point of view. Here endth the lesson. Cheers!

Linking to a directory page defeats the purpose of pinning, at least from the author's point of view.

You want to pin from (and link back to) your articles.

But a 'reader' can pin from an image on a directory page because they are now so prominent - Is that not a problem from a copyright or linking perspective? The link is not attribute to the original source page - but to the directory page - If from the home page it is simply the home url.
