Tech Updates to the TakeLessons Site

September 13, 2012

Chuck and Jason - TakeLessons developers rockin' da house
(Chuck and Jason making things happen on the site)

As a public service announcement to all of our wonderful and fabulous users, we did a site upgrade last night. Here are the upgrades, changes, and additions:

New Feature

  • Did a Facebook integration launch. It’s still secretly hidden for a week or so until we do further testing on it. But it’s going to be very cool!
  • Changed wording on “subjects taught” in the application to all instructors to specify levels. We need them to be able to teach at both beginner and intermediate levels

Job Application and Hiring

  • We did a bunch of stuff here. It’s proprietary, so we can’t name it. But it’s cool and will help us hire better teachers in areas where we need them.

NAMM Logo
NAMM Partnership

  • As you may know, we signed an Agreement with NAMM to power a joint effort to help students find good instructors. This is coming along nicely.
  • Added phone number and website URL to NAMM search results

Bug Fixes
Thanks to all of you for reporting bugs. Here’s what we got fixed:

  • Fixed issues with lesson rescheduling through admin where first lesson discounts were being lost when the day/time was changed
  • Add full category list to the header of teacher profiles so potential student can quickly see them all
  • Fix to show student name (not billing contact name) under flex lessons list

Keep Rockin!
