Either some new features of the website or fixes of certain bugs. Usually causes even more bugs to happen though…

Voting winner and next song voting

Waluigi Pinball won the last voting and will be done next!

Second and third place were pretty close, so the next voting is only about which of these songs will be the next one, the loser comes after the winner basically. Not very important you might say, but it’s also a test since I upgraded the voting plug-in. It should now finally allow Google+ (and with that YouTube) users to vote! I hope it works as expected, let’s try it out!

Comments, registration and avatars

Today I want to talk about some bugfixes and additional features I added to the website the last few days.

Yesterday I solved a problem many users had with registering. They didn’t receive the e-mail with the password, which should now be corrected. It should also be possible by now to post comments using Google+, if you don’t really want to register (who needs that many accounts anyway?).

Some users had issues with replying to comments. Specifically, replies to comments on the “Suggestions” page where moved to the “About” page for some reason. I manually moved the comments where they belong to. I still have no idea why this happened, but I installed some plug-ins that will hopefully make the replying and commenting system a bit more intuitive and working as it should. Hopefully.

Also, you should now be able to change your avatars for this site by editing your profile. WordPress usually uses Gravatar for that, but I added a feature that let’s you use your Google+ or Facebook avatar. To use your Google+ avatar, you’ll only need your Google+ ID, which can be found in the address bar while viewing your Google+ profile. For example: https://plus.google.com/u/0/115088168623311292787/posts
It shows that my Google+ ID is 115088168623311292787.

You can also like pages and posts. Maybe you should try it out on this one~
I was also hoping for a plug-in that let’s you (dis)like comments, but I haven’t found a good one yet.

That’s pretty much it for now. I hope you’re having fun here!
