Just Published - Book Lists - Update

Apologies to regular users of the Just Published book lists that I update. I have recently moved house and have been without reliable, fast internet access for over a fortnight. I am due to be reconnected on Wednesday. I have tried to update the lists in work breaks - but this has proved impossible because of the pressures of work (more info soon in my projects blog!).

Change to "inactivity" limits

The summer has highlighted that the inactivity limits that are set on feed maintenance and account log ins are a bit too strict for many people.

I have now amended these, thus:
  • Feeds must be updated at least once every 4 weeks (this had previously been every 2 weeks). Note that "updated" doesn't mean logging in and clicking the update feed button. Updating means adding a new item and then clicking the update feed button. After 4 weeks, the feed will be removed from the server - and can easily be resurrected by logging in, adding a new item and clicking the update feed button.
  • Users who do not log into their account in a 60 day period will have their account marked for deletion - an email will be sent alerting them of this.
  • Users who do not log into their account for a further 30 days after the 60 day period will have their account and their feeds deleted.
I hope this makes things a little less irritating for people who do update their feeds regularly, but not with great frequency.

Website Downtime

Apologies for the downtime experienced towards the end of last week and over the weekend.

The problems have now been resolved. No data should have been lost - but all XML feeds may need to be refreshed. To do this, log in and click the UPDATE FEED button for each of your feeds.

Just Published - Redesigned

The Just Published website has been redesigned to make it more user friendly and flexible.

The new layout and colour scheme was devised by Azem William Interactive Design.

This change does mean that the notification facility has changed a little. You can now subscribe to multiple lists at once - rather than having to subscribe to each one individually.

Any comments, gratefully received.
