New features: De-dupe tool & improved notifications

March 11th, 2009

Just wanted to talk about two new features we added to Review App recently:

De-dupe tool

If you run a medium or large size review site you know that from time to time you’ll end up with duplicate user-submitted listings. Sometimes these “dupes” can go undetected for months until you realize you have two listings for the same place, each with its own reviews, photos, etc. What to do?

With the de-dupe tool, just enter the duplicate listing ID and the original listing ID and presto! Review App handles the rest. All the duplicate listing reviews, photos, tags, and list entries will be moved to the original listing and the duplicate listing will become inactive. Sweet, huh? That feature has already saved us countless hours on the sites we manage so we know you’ll appreciate it too.

Improved notifications

With Review App you can choose to be notified via email when new listings, reviews, or photos are added and we’ve given you even more flexibility in setting notification rules. Only want to be notified for guest reviews but not for registered user reviews? No problem. Want to auto-approve registered members’ reviews but moderate guest reviews? Review App makes it easy.

Other stuff

We’re also working on behind-the-scenes stuff that makes Review App easier to upgrade and customize while improving speed as well (although it’s already lightning fast). We’ll keep you updated right here via the blog…
