Sadly can't escape some meetings today. Please put up a replay if you can.

Lane Andress

Unfortunately a Drs appointment is interfering 🙁 will have to to watch replay! Exciting stuff! I watched last week and am totally aboard! 😃

Hal Meng

I am not seeing any comments

Heather Torrey

I left comments about the site in a message here. Thank you.

You have to click through to the YouTube version to get the Live Chat. This always messes me up. :)

nothing works - just get to get access page and can't get past Chrome/firefox/brave on mac

Marin Phillips

So excited about this new platform guys! Really looking forward to more behind the scenes and blacksmithing videos :)

Everything is working, the only thing (I think this was asked about on the livestream that I had to miss) is this avatar thing, I’m using Safari on an iPad currently and I see text that says “Avatar Recommended dimensions: 200×200px, maximum file size: 5MB” but I don’t see anywhere to change it. It’s not super important to me anyway but figured I’d let you know.

I've signed up! Looks pretty impressive so far. High quality videos loading super fast. I noted a similar issue to what I think some other people had. The new Backwoods Blacksmith Episode One Strike video worked fine when I clicked to it via the related-videos section, but it didn't work when I clicked through the Townsends Plus Originals and Library links. The video that works is at https://townsendsplus.com/programs/strikermp4-87f7fb and the page that shows an image but no video is https://townsendsplus.com/programs/collection-r4tzjujddju

I hope that's useful. I'm glad to be a part of this.

bil Jeschke

I signed up, so I will be dropping my support here down to the lowest level.

I have gone to TownsendsPlus.com and can only see the home page - when I work in MS Edge. One of our computers has Google Chrome and T+ opens fine (still no trial offer). So it looks like the site won't work with Edge as the browser.

Interesting.... You should get a "Get Access" button. Sometimes is doesn't seem to render. Try a refresh F5 and see if that changes anything. Also, I am using you as a guinea pig. I sent you an invite via email. We will see how that works.

Jason Jablonski

New platform looks great! We are very long time viewers and looking forward to it. Signed up there right away.

Susan MacFarland

Congratulations! I am so happy about this. What a great idea. Love you are going outside YouT. I use Opera Browser (Developed in Norway, I believe) and I signed up with no problem. People, be sure you type in Townsendsplus.com (Townsends with the "s") otherwise you may not find it. I love Plus!

Julie Esper

Jon, I’ve been able to watch every video I’ve tried. What hasn’t worked is the comment option. If there is one video in the “folder” the comment option is available. If there are multiple videos in the playlist/folder such as the season 1 cooking videos etc. it doesn’t allow comments. I’m using my iPhone right now, haven’t tried another platform.

Nick Werren

the avatar on the channel - I have one. I believe it's importing the avatar from my email account. I'm not sure how that's working exactly but likely metadata transferred over when the account is being set up. The profile image/avatar set up isn't live at the moment so it sounds like you need to get that pipeline working. I'm checking this on Google Chrome and Safari now.

Nick Werren

some other notes: I'd suggest getting a townsends favicon outside of the uscreen one (the little placeholder tag that you see in the tab of a internet browser)

Nick Werren

In the security section I'd personally just have account deletion as a single button or link

Nick Werren

Are there going to be description sections for the videos? And maybe some way of showing that information when you hover over/click/etc a video?

Nick Werren

Other than that it all looks great to me. Looking forward to seeing it develop!

I'm just starting to play around in mobile on Android in Opera. The pop-out for the video is finicky. The pop-out control is only available from the video itself, and 50% of the time, the pop-out video closes when another app opens. This could be video platform or mobile browser, so it might be a hard one to track down, but it is pretty annoying.

BvD

A couple more little things after playing with it a bit again: 1) I know "Library" was new suggestion, but it isn't favorited videos, and that name does not really reflect what that section is. Heck, I *still* don't know what I'm supposed to be seeing there. 2) It would be good if videos that you favorite are able to be pulled up in either the profile, or a "favorites" category in the main content well. 3) It would be good UI to have the "Comments" tab reflect how many comments each video has, or at least if there are any comments, without having to click on the tab.

Heather Torrey

When I signed up, it was automatically a 10 day free trial, and I used the coupon. Wasn't sure how it would balance out. Tonight I got an email that my renewal was processed for zero dollars. Just wanted to confirm for you the free month coupon code did work. Thank you!

Tara Sadowski

For the yearly subscription, is that calendar year (Jan-Jan), or 12 months from when you sign up (April-April)?
