New Website Status

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

Tonight we implemented a fix for the problem that keeps bringing the database down. Fingers crossed it doesn’t crash again tomorrow morning.

We are also working on the problem with some of the buttons in Our Registry not working (like Add Items and Choose Photo). It has to do with the way JavaScript is loading and we should have the solution implement on Friday, Jan 23.

Thanks for your patience!

2008 was a successful year for Honeyfund and we hope for you, too! Thanks to your generosity we raised $593 for our charitible giving program. As a reminder, each quarter we total the donations given by couples to Honeyfund.com, and donate 10 percent off the top. Here’s how the money was distributed in 2008:

Q4: St Jude’s Childrens Research Hospital – $113

Q3: FINCA – $250

Q2: Open Content Alliance – $180

Q1: RAINN – $50

Thanks again for your support!

The New Honeyfund.com is Live!

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

The new Honeyfund.com is finally here! We’re getting lots of good feedback and even hearing about a few bugs. We wanted to let you know about these issues:

1. Internet Explorer users: Our Registry pages may be a little slower to load. For best results, be sure you’re waiting for a full page load before trying to use the page. We’re working on a fix for this.

2. Some couples are having trouble viewing their gifts. We think we have corrected this issue.

3. Some couples (outside the US) had their currencies changed to USD. We think we have corrected this issue.

Thanks and keep the feedback coming!
