Just wanted to let you know you can now use Honeyfund as an "anything" fund. We’ve allowed you to "hide" the Honeymoon Destination section so can you now register for down payments for a home, furniture, savings for education, you name it! Making all your dreams happen!

Once you complete and publish your registry, you can now click on the Notify Guests tab under the Publish your Honeyfund section to share your published Honeyfund web address.

User interface for 'Click to share on...'

Of course, you can still easily send e-mails to your guests from this section and create registry card inserts.

Please try it out and let us know what you think.

You may have experienced problems with the logged in areas of the site earlier today (i.e., secure or https pages). As of 5:30 pm PST we are now having trouble with non-secure pages (http pages).

We will post updates here and at www.twitter.com/honeyfund

We are having trouble with our e-mail services today. Our hosting company tells us from 11 am to 12:30 pm pacific they took down some of the web services as well, which may have resulted in slow performance on our site. They are slowly working to resolve the issue throughout the day. I have been getting and responding to the e-mail I’m getting, but if you have e-mailed and haven’t gotten a response try me at sara at honeyfund.com.

Best,

Sara

We made some improvements to the gift giving process last night. We’re making it more clear to gift givers when they are committing to a “pledge” and what they will need to do to pay you afterward. Hopefully this will result in fewer canceled gift pledges, and more gifts for you!

Test it out in your account and let us know what you think. You can delete a “test” gift by simply clicking the red X on the Gifts Received page. Then restore the quantity to your registry under Edit your Honeyfund > Registry Details > Registry Items.

We have been informed by our hosting company that they are performing an emergency reboot of their systems this evening to resolve the issues from yesterday and today. Our site will be unavailable until that is complete.

Let’s all say it together… ARGH!

:)

Will keep you posted.

The site issues we had yesterday (slowness, 403 Forbidden errors, etc.) were resolved last night by our hosting company. However they tell us this morning that they the e-mail errors have recurred. Basically this means I will be slower to respond to e-mail today until they get this resolved. The website seems to be performing okay and not affected by the mail issues.

More info as I have it!
