Hi Honeyfunders,
We’ve been having intermittent issues with our secure pages not being displayed. After about a day of back and forth with our web hosting company, they have now verified the issue are working on it. We’ll let you know when we hear more.
Best,
Sara & Josh
We’ve determined that Honeyfund has been used to send spam to some of our couples’ contact persons. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. To address this issue, we now require a security check to send e-mail to a couple’s contact person.

We’ve fixed the bug that caused the Honeyfund Premium slideshow not to play in Firefox. As well as a handful of other bugs. Let us know if you have any issues!

Hi Honeyfunders,
With sleepy eyes I type to let you know that Honeyfund Premium is now live! Please check it out and let us know if you run across any issues. One that we know of is a problem viewing the slideshow in Firefox on Windows. (You have to right click and select Play to see it, when it should start playing automatically.) We’ll be working on this Monday, Mar 30.
Off to bed!

Hi Honeyfunders,
We’ve just launched a great new “drag and drop” re-ordering feature for your registry items! Try it out and let us know what you think. If you have any trouble with it let us know.
Sara & Josh
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!
Sara & Josh
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 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!

Hi Honeyfunders,
We have noticed slow performance today and we are working with our hosting service to get it resolved. Will post here again when we have an update.

1/16/09 Update: This issue was resolved.
Happy Labor Day week!
We wanted to let you know about two small improvements we made to the site last night.
1. Duplicate gifts – some of you were reporting that gift givers were inadvertently duplicating their gifts. We heard it from gift givers, too. It happened when they clicked "Back" to try and change their name or payment method. So we implemented a failsafe and you should see a lot less of this now.
2. PayPal payment screen failures – we heard from some gift givers that the PayPal Payments button would result in a "page not found." We’ve upgraded the button to resolve the issue.
Keep letting us know if you have any trouble with the site. Back to work on the big improvements, coming this Fall!
Sara & Josh
