Server maintenance

josh — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 07:40:51 +0000

Our web host is going to be performing some software upgrades on our servers this evening so the website will be down for a short while. It should be in the middle of the night so hopefully most people won’t be impacted.

Performance Upgrades

josh — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 03:25:17 +0000

Over the next couple of days we will be rolling out some performance upgrades to Zistle. Sorry if the site was a little wonky this evening, we were pushing out the first of our upgrades and thought we could do it without any disruption….

We know that things have slowed down as the size of the library has gone up and more and more people use the site. We are going to do our best to fix the problems but we would like your help with something. Please let us know what is slow! If you encounter slowness with the site please use our feedback tool (or go to help.zistle.com) and let us know what happened. The more specific you are the better, e.g. “I was searching through josh’s tradelist on his profile for the term ‘knoblauch’ and it took 15 seconds to load” is great, it lets us know what to investigate.

Thanks for your help and happy Zistling.

New Zistle Mobile App: Donate for early access

ashley — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 02:19:59 +0000

This Thanksgiving we are most thankful for our dedicated Zistlers who have continued to contribute to our growing community. We’ve been awed by your continued support and dedication to making Zistle a success. As you know, we are committed to keeping Zistle free for all members. However, if you enjoy using Zistle and would like to help the site to continue to grow, we’re going to start accepting donations to help with hosting, storage and other associated costs of running the site.

We wanted to offer something special to those of you who decide to donate. As a special thank-you to Zistle members who donate, we’re offering early access to a new mobile version of Zistle which allows you to easily access your collection, wantlists and tradelists on any mobile device. You can also browse the Zistle Library and get access to Zistle pricing if available for any card in the Zistle Library.

To get access, make sure to add your Zistle username into the ‘special instructions section’ of the donation form. If for some reason this doesn’t work, you can also email us (ashley or josh at zistle.com) and we will enable your account.

Mobile App Preview

From the homepage, easily navigate to your collection, wantlist, tradelist or the Zistle Library. When navigating the Zistle Library, you’ll navigate through a menu of sports, years, sets and subsets.

Once you have selected the subset that you are looking for, you can browse cards, search for cards and add cards to your collection.

To add a card to your collection or see the pricing, select the card. You can add or remove a card from your collection and see the total number that you own.

We’re excited about the new mobile version of the site. All Zistle members will still be able to access the regular Zistle site on their mobile devices. We appreciate your generosity and hope you enjoy the new mobile friendly version of the site.

Some minor downtime

josh — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 00:17:58 +0000

We are pushing out some changes to get ready for a new, hopefully exciting , feature that we have been working on. We should only be down for a few minutes. More info to come as we get nearer the release.

UPDATE: Everything has been resolved. Sorry for any weirdness that you may have encountered.

Doing a little site maintenance…

josh — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 20:27:58 +0000

Zistle will be down for about 15 minutes this afternoon as we do a little site maintenance. Thanks for your patience.

UPDATE: All done. Happy Zistlin’

Zistle updates will be slow this week

josh — Wed, 10 Aug 2011 17:10:29 +0000

I just wanted to let everyone know that we are still alive! I have been getting emails from concerned Zistlers wondering if we had been kidnapped and I just wanted to reassure everyone that everything will be back to normal soon. Ashley and I have finally finished our cross country move, BUT, we do not have internet in our apartment until this weekend. So, updates/validations/etc. will be slow until next week because we need to find a coffee shop with wifi to get anything done. Until then, please bear with us. Things will be working smoothly again soon!

Zistle Office Internet Down

ashley — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 10:34:35 +0000

Hey Zistlers. Our Internet has been down for the past few days due to storms so we have been unable to get online very easily. We are working on getting everything up and running today. Sorry for the delay on card, flag approvals over the weekend.

The site is in no way affected and should be working properly.

Zistle’s gone camping

ashley — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 14:11:22 +0000

We’ll be out of town for a few days for some much needed vacation. We’ll validate cards and moderate flags as soon as we get back.
