BlogSense Newsletter
Tuesday June 29th 2010
Dear Reader,
It’s been awhile since my last
update notice, but the ball has not been dropped. I’ve been working
hard to get 5.0 ready for release, which will give you much
more control over the cronjob system, as well as upgrade the bookmarking
system to the new ‘drip’ system I have been preparing. This
two new systems combined will allow you to attempt bookmarks every X
minutes ( – X – will be a random number between two intervals you
supply), as well as provide you with an all inclusive way to monitor
successfully posted bookmarks and index status.
Also, those of you who joined The Autoblog Blueprint. ( spots
still open. http://www.blogsense-wp.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=395
), might have noticed how much content mixing is appreciated…
To better serve you guys, better mixing capabilities for
BlogSense are finally on their way. A token system that scans
different content locations for relevant content is being developed.
Sources will include Amazon, Youtube, Ebay, Flickr, and other potential
sources. Each token will be very simple to create and append to posts,
and also complex token combinations can be created such as two or more
tokens, or a random token out of a selection of tokens. There will be a
very simple formula for creating tokens, and a couple of presets will
automatically be available upon update to 5.0. I’ll be sure to tell
you more about this later…
All of this is due in 5.0, which isn’t quite ready yet and may be a
week off, but there are still many new features and bug fixes in
this latest release that are worthy of checking out. If you are
troubleshooting with me right now these might directly affect you…
New Features
(New Source) – Articlesbase.com – good
articles source. Comments are scraped too.
(New Source) – Yahoo News – Comments are
scraped too.
(Bookmarking Queue) – This management
section is now active. (an early 5.0 upgrade).
(Source Management) – Ability to delete
sources.
Bug Fixes
(Buzzle.com
Campaigns & Server Stress-outs) Code has been updated that
prevents infinite loops that have been causing trouble with Buzzle.com
Campaigns and similar campaigns.
(Categorize-by-Tags)
Code improvement.
(Search
& Replace) This feature was broken for source and rss campaigns.
(Optional
Tagging) – There were situations where tags-off setting was not
respected. This is corrected.
(Wordpress
3.0) – Major improvements to multisite detection. For some using
multisite, accessing blogsense took them to a blank screen, and for
others many errors would show as correct database table prefixes were
being confused by the software.
