So the "Indian Summer" in Radcliffe is in full swing and the office is almost unbearably warm.
Changes keep be rolled out though: The promised ability to view your full card has been rolled onto the live site.
 The ability to edit your cards prior to them being printed is being modified, some of it is ready to go, but I wouldnt like to send it out with it only half completed.
Hopefully it will all be sorted monday and online then!
Until then - Have a good weekend!

I know most of you will still be massively impressed by the improvement in the Order History page that happened yesterday. Well today, I improved it further - want to see the personalisation you made to the inside of a card that you sent many many months ago? I knew you would. Well if you click on the thumbnail image it brings an "oh so lovely" box with the entire card (except the back page - but you couldnt have edited that!).
 Another change almost ready to go - if you order a card, and decide its not quite right!? you can edit the card from order history, provided it has not yet gone to print. This needs a bit of testing and tweaking...
  Hope to put these changes live very soon!

Today I updated the Order History page!
 Further improvements are coming to this page in the next few days, however I am so proud of the work so far that it is already on the live site! check it from the Accounts section!

More progress was made on the new stock control system, had a problem where the information was being added twice.
Now moved onto creating an email so if you leave an item in the basket, in the morning an email will be sent to you to remind you!

So some of you may have noticed one or two broken links on the homepage.. Well thanks for telling me!!! Anyway they are all fixed now.
Mail Merge can now deal with XLS files < I have been busy!
A bit more on the despatch manager and I can start something new!

With the release of our gifts section growing ever closer excitement is growing here at HelloTurtle.
Today it reached the level that we thought > Lets tell all HelloTurtle users - Exclusive Personalised gifts are coming! Check out the lovely "button" on the right hand side of our Homepage.
I have spent some more time today tidying the mailmerge function - adding in some new options and completing the paging system for addresses I started to add on Friday.
I even found a couple of minutes to correct a grammar issue on site!

Exciting news! The new payment gateway went live on friday afternoon! Me and Richard spent all morning and most of the afternoon testing every possible outcome, so hopefully there won't be any bugs! The reason for the new payment gateway is that it allows us to customise the page so that it fits in with the rest of the site, making it less easier for you, the customer!
