A few new things and a handful of fixes

Posted January 28, 2010 by Peter Vesterbacka 4 Thumb-ups 

We've added quite a few new twists and tweaks to Wreckamovie over the last few weeks, and this week is no exception to that. At the same time we are working on reducing the clutter and keep things as simple as possible, so expect to see some less is more action from us too.

Trailer / teaser videos on top

We moved the videos on the production page to the top + made it bigger, so that is now the first thing you see when you hit the production page. Looks better + gives the most important content the best spot. No big development involved, but part of our effort to make the production pages more attractive and functional. You will see more in this area soon.

Fixes

-fixed uploading of various file types (WAV, AVI etc should all work now)
-news comments show properly in activity stream
-group tasks not shown unless you are part of the group
-deleted items don't show in activity stream
-streamlined registration & invites a bit
-various smaller fixes as usual

What's up next?

We are working on making the production pages more customizable. As part of that also working on making the news section better, adding more flexibility on RSS feeds and some other tweaks.

A bit further out we'll also have more of a press kit capability as part of the production pages, really looking at how we can make it easier for productions to promote what's going on to the world.

Another thing that has come up many times from many of you is the need for more storage and easier sharing of whatever content is needed in the production. We are pretty far in our investigation of the various options and we will have much better functionality and capacity in the not too distant future.

That's it for this week, back to work;-)

Noticed one of the productions already has a customised page, looks nice!

Yes, we are testing the custom production pages with one production, there's a few more coming soon. And some other small features and fixes as usual.
