Release Notes – 5/18/10
A new version of our software was released on the 18th. This release contains both fixes and enhancements. Here’s what’s been updated in this release…
Enhancement: Microsoft’s IE8 browser, which is used by over 70% of users visits our sites, includes a great new feature called Web Slices. A Web Slice enable users to stay up-to-date on certain web content. This type of feature can be a very powerful method of increasing site visits and overall member activity. To take advantage of this feature, in StickyFish, we have created a Web Slice for point earning opportunities and a Web Slice for point redemption opportunities. In Fan Club, we created slices for Surveys and for Contests. A user can select these Slices when they visit the site, and it will add the Slice into their favorites bar and then alert them every time new content is launched (the slice will highlight up in their favorites bar when new content is available). To add a web slice from your StickyFish or Fan Club site, visit your site using IE8, then roll over one of the Points, Prizes, or Survey marquees in the left or right column of your site. A green Web Slice icon will appear to the left of the marquee when you roll over it. Click this icon, and then add the slice. The slice will now appear in your favorites bar.

Fixed: Scratch & Win game freezing – If a player clicked on a single image multiple times it could cause the game to freeze. This issue has been corrected.
Fixed: Scratch & Win loophole – If a player clicked on two matching images then double-clicked on the second image the game would declare the player a winner. Also the check mark on the image would become persistent throughout play. The cause of this bug has been identified and fixed.
Fixed: First name variable in confirmation emails – The token that is supposed to display a user’s name in the confirmation email was sometimes displaying as [firstname] without inserting the actual name. This has been resolved.
Fixed: Music test song list – In some cases a new music test would include songs from previous music tests that were not supposed to be included in the current test. The bug that caused this issue has been corrected.
Fixed: Postal codes not recognized – Certain postal codes were not being recognized by the email engine when filtering a list by postal code. The database was updated to include the missing codes.
Fixed: Slot machine – A regression error caused the slot machine to stop subtracting from or awarding points to users’ accounts. The cause of this issue was identified and corrected.
Fixed: In some circumstances, music test reports timing out – The music test reports were often timing out. Certain optimizations were made to prevent this.
