The first week of the Beta Party has come to an end – the contest was hugely competative and a great round of updates were made.

Thanks to all the feedback we’ve gotten, a whole bunch of bugs were discovered and fixed – more than we can remember to list!

Features

  • Removed the “add welcome dm” button on the tweet box modal window.
  • Renovated the welcome message modal window to better display the currently-set welcome messages, the description of how to use them, and the ability to add more – all from the same modal window.
  • Removed the latest tweet from twuds in the twud columns, and replaced it with a readout of how long ago since you followed them, and a reason for why EverTweet suggests you to unfollow.
  • Integrated unique affiliate links into all share buttons throughout the EverTweet website when logged in, giving maximum exposure and likelihood to gather invites and referrals for all.
  • Updated the bug report modal window to include operating system and browser to aid in fixing bugs and resolving individual support concerns.

Bug Fixes

  • The twitter profile modal is now movable and can be closed / minimized correctly in the top right corner.
  • Twuds will now accurately show if they aren’t following you back, and haven’t done so within 3 days.  If you followed them outside of EverTweet, an accurate time frame isn’t available.
  • Fixed a major column error that was causing browsers to crash after adding 2-3 columns.
  • Solved a column-height logic issue causing unneeded processing power and creating situational column errors.
  • Fixed an issue causing columns made in separate tabs to effect another tag’s columns.
  • Fixed the prospect column type from breaking future column javascript.
  • Solved a character encoding issue that created large red error messages atop various columns.
  • Fixed the login / signup routine to properly be routed through the correct channels.
  • Properly adjusted the twud column to filter out previously skipped twuds from the list of users.
  • Forced the max number of recent events shown at one time to be 10, eliminating the massive 20-item high list of actions from blocking part of the screen.
  • Fixed the add account routine to smoothly attach a Twitter account to a particular user’s EverTweet account.  Included error and success messages to indicate how the account attachment procedure performed.
