Site updates

Hello, everyone! 

Time for some updates on BuzzTunes. Not much this time, but still... First off, a facebook entry has been added to all user profiles, so, if you happen to have a facebook account, feel free to make it known to the public. Secondly, a standard facebook "Like"  button will now appear on every tune's page making it possible to "spread the word" amongst your facebook friends. And finally, remix notifications. Nothing fancy about it — every time someone uploads a remix to one of your tunes, you get an email notification. Like the rest of  'em, these notification can be disabled in your user's profile. 

And, as always, if you spot any bugs, come up with useful suggestions 
or suddenly have a bright idea, you know where to find me

Update: added Google's +1 button next to facebook 'like'. Please test.
Update2: added player behavior to preferences as suggested by Mantratronic.
Update3: added player to mixed podcasts.

  • How are you keeping out the spam on your e-mail, man? XD When I put my 'corporate' e-mail on my site (ages ago) I got spammed with random e-mails about enlarging certain body parts that are fine as the way they are.
  • I got some real hardcore spam-filters
  • Would I be asking for too much if we could choose our own background and text colour (CSS shadow and background image would have to go) on our profile pages and upload a header image instead of an avatar, like on certain  other music upload websites?

  • @Pesticide: I'm afraid i twould. Right now, anyway. The current framework has some basic support for themes, but I never thought of anything like that kind of customization. Sorry.

    News update: added Google's +1 button next to facebook 'like'. Please test.
  • Would it be possible to have a preference on the profile controlling whether or not the player loops the song? I often go off and do something else once I start listening to a track, and then I can't tell if I've listened to the whole track or if it has restarted... (Mainly on chillout and ambient stuff

    Also for me , I share what Mantratronic says.
    If it's not possible to save this switch (loop on/off) in the personal profile, it would be nice to get it directly on the player , or maybe also like the "music list filter"; in this way you can set on/off the "loop mode" every time you connect to buzztunes site. (sorry for my baby english !!!).

  • @Mantratronic & BHS: I'll put that on my to-do list and implement it ASAP. 
    Thanks for the suggestion.
  • Why there is no member/people/user list?
  • Why there is no member/people/user list?
    Thought about implementing one at first (and there was one back in buzzmusic.de days), but then again: the site's about music, not people. Users' profiles can be accessed from within any tune page. Maybe I'm wrong here, anyway this point is open to discussion. Making a list you suggest won't be too hard
  • News update: added player behavior to preferences as suggested by Mantratronic.
  • Hi Shy, good work with these new adds I have a suggestion : is it possible to have something telling us if we have yet commented a tune (in the music section) ? Sometimes I cant remember if I have commented or not a song and I have to open the related page to see if I have done it...
  • You mean outline the list positions in the music sections somehow? 
    OK, I'll think about it too.
  • News update: added player to mixed podcasts.
