New Features (Version 0.4a)
We just deployed version 0.4a of coComment. We added some new features in this release that might be of interest.
You now have the ability to edit tags you set yourself or to add tags to comments of others. Furthermore, tags can now contain special characters (like umlauts and the like, some characters are still forbidden, though). Entry of tags is also now more easy. Just go to your options page and select ‘Show tags textfield in page’. Then you’ll get a small field to enter tags right on the blog page, without having to open the options page. (This should actually be the default setting, but I messed it up… sorry)
We also added a first community feature. In your conversation you now have a box with ‘Neighbours’. These are the 10 people that commented most on articles you commented as well.
If you go to the forum, you might notice that we finally managed to make our own forum coComment compatible. So everything you post there will now be collected by coComment.
The lists with top users (and also blogs, articles and tags) was also changed a bit. We now show two lists, one with top ever and another one with the top users in the last 10 days, showing a bit more the dynamics when commenting.
For developers we also added a JSON API for handling your comments wherever you want.
Last but not least, we added support for some new blogs, namely journalspace, twoday.net, blogger.de, and antville.
Unfortunately, Xanga recently added some security ‘features’ to their pages, making it currently impossible for coComment to work on their pages. We are trying to work something out with them to still allow coComment to work there. We don’t have a solution for it right now, though.
I hope we did not add to many bugs at the same time. At least we also fixed some that were existing before…
Have fun with the new version and as always we are glad about feedback.
