A new version of Tube Toolbox has been released which includes some emergency fixes, some general bug fixes and a few new features.
Emergency Fixes
- Bulk Message Sending - YouTube changed the way messages are sent out so we needed to change Tube Toolbox. The fix is complete but since it was completely re-done, please let us know if you run into any problems. Related to message sending - it looks like with the new interface on YouTube, you can send the same messages to multiple people at once. We don't know any more than you at this point but it seems like perhaps we could work this feature into Tube Toolbox for more efficient message sending.
New Features
- Hide in System Tray. When bulk sending, we had a request from a user that they would like to be able to hide the Tube Toolbox in the system tray so that it didn't take up room in their task bar. To use this feature, click on Settings from the Options menu.
- Gather Page Count. When gathering users/videos you can now optionally select a maximum number of pages to gather.
Bug Fixes
- We had reports that gathering users and videos was not picking up ALL users and videos on the page. We went in and re-worked the feature and believe that it is working 100% correctly now. If there is a particular page where it isn't picking up the Users or Videos that you think it should, please email support@TubeToolbox.com and let us know the page.
- User/Video name fixes. When gathering user names and videos, we found that sometimes it would extract a name incorrectly (for example, "ttpromo1&ref=1" instead of just "ttpromo". It should always gather names correctly now and Tube Toolbox will actually fix those bad names that are currently stored in your database the first time that the new version runs.
Other Notes
- GET PAID TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT TUBE TOOLBOX!! We are working on creating an Affiliate Program where you can get paid (or get Free months added to your Professional Account) when you refer others to Tube Toolbox. For a sneak peak, take a look at http://www.TubeToolbox.com/AffiliateSignUp.aspx . Keep in mind that it is not complete yet. We will hopefully have it done by May 14th.
- New Status Page. We are working on a Status Page that our customers can check in on to see what new features we are working on for future releases and also give updates for when features are broken or being worked on. It's not done yet, but will be at http://www.TubeToolbox.com/Status.aspx
- Instructional Videos Back. Most of our demo videos are back online after YouTube took down our account. We may have perminantly lost a few of them but we'll work on re-creating them and posting back on our site.
