I would like to write an article or blog post about the relaunch and thank you all (and your company) if it is ok with you. So if that is fine, let me know!

Sometimes things happen. We recently suffered through some technology issues at the office. There is only one option: recover everything you possibly can, prevent it from happening again, and dive right back in!

You're doing a great job of keeping us all posted and requesting assistance. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help!

You're most welcome Brent! I think I got everything except the meta tags done on those entries. I'll get you some more as soon as I get my blog back to functional :)

Seems like launching any new technology comes with its bumps. Luckily it happened earlier rather than later, and hopefully what was learned can be prevented in the future. Let's all work together to figure out a way to make it even better going forward!

Hey Everybody,
It looks like we are close to done with prefilling the site with enough content for the relaunch with one exception. The discussion board still needs some love! :cheer: Ideally, if we have roughly 3 topics and a couple of replies in each main category, we should be set!

Once we finish that we'll open up MFI, although I'm planning on sending the Relaunch emails on Monday since many people are still out of the office for the holidays.

Sound good? Any other ideas for the relaunch?

Thanks again everybody!

Okay, I added some new discussion threads in some of the different topic areas. Regarding points, I would still like to see some sort of summary situation with points for the day or week instead of an email every time points are earned so that Inboxes are not overwhelmed. That's my only other thought! Good luck with relaunch!!! Happy New Year! :)

First of all, you are GREAT!

Second, regarding the points notifications, we don't have that ability quite yet. So it is either an all or nothing situation. I've put a poll up on the front page to get a feel for the issue, but I think it will probably end up that we remove notifications for points.

Thanks!

Update to the relaunch plan: We are sending out reminder emails to our members to set up their new profile on Monday, so we should see a surge on Monday, assuming people aren't overwhelmed with getting back into the groove if they just got back from vacation.

Also, we should be getting some very good buzz throughout the week, so this upcoming week should be very good to us!

Feel free to spread the word to help things along!

Hey Brent! Just a quick note to let you know that the Home button link at the top doesn't seem to be working properly. When I click on it, it takes me right to the page I was just viewing. The side Home link appears to work fine. Heads up! :-)
