    - fixed typo in emails
    - added auto-focus for unregistered users
    - fixed 3 characters limit for tag when uploading
    - fixed wrong number of shouts on shots

    For people using the arrow keys nav feature:

    - The feature is now disabled when you are writing a shout
    - You can now fav/unfav a shot using alt+f
    - You can now bookmark/unbookmark a shot using alt+b

    it's a very early version, combinaisons might change and of course, voting using the keyboard is planned, I'm just not sure right now how to do it properly.

    great stuff, that was very frustrating.
    now if you could manage to make the same thing with showing the solution and voting
    it will truly be a dream come true

    alt + s for showing the solution
    alt + number for voting

    if it is possible, I know nothing about programing and stuff...

    I’ve noticed the same thing as @Zo0 - when we create new character there is no option to add name of an actor

    see what I mean here: http://whatthemovie.com/movie/oblivion+2013/characters
    there are 4 characters created, all of them with the same inscription - “Unknown Actor” (although there are properly imported ones in the panel of Inactive Characters).

    The thing is that I cannot edit actor’s name, or even add it while creating new character. Is it possible to fix that?

    I have noticed a strange thing that happens from time to time, and may be difficult to reproduce:
    In NS I am sometimes quite sure of a solution. I type it and the system answers it is the wrong title. I don't bother. But if this shot goes to FF, I try again the title and then it works!

    It happened today with http://whatthemovie.com/shot/289158

    I am almost sure it is not a mispelling since the title is stored in my browser (this movie comes again frequently): I only type the begining of the title and it is automaticaly completed.

    Maybe kinoute could check in some kind of log the sequence of titles I've tried yesterday.

    Hopefuly it happens very rarely.

    @fafner this feature has not been implemented yet and won't be for now until I find a good way to handle manual entries submitted by players and automatic entries taken by our API

    i've seen the same case , like @efji ,

    i think someone 's deleted the french title without ","
    and so if you wrote the title without "," it was a false answer
    but now if you see the title page ,the last title added is the french title without "," .... so now it's a good answer ;)

    @efji

    got this problem long time ago, while the annoying chily crododile phase. Red Crosses when entering the right answer. But since never again. But a friend (since 1 year or more not playing anymore) got no DSL and with his slow connection he get often errorgator while opening NS (FF was not that problem to open and play) and if he got sometimes the NS overview open, he get tons of red crosses with the correct movie. At FF he gain always the green message that he guessed the movie.

    At errorgator phase the wtm server was the problem, by my friend the slow internet connection... If you are now the only one, who got this problem, you have maybe a connection problem too or something else. If you ever have the problem again, try this 2 things:
    1. hit enter several times again if the first try fails, i got in that annoying errorgator phase always somehow after 4-5 tries the green mark
    2. wait 10 min. or more and try the same shot in the NS again.

    If you get with 1 method the green mark, you can be sure, your connection loose packages or something else is wrong. Maybe just for some seconds or less of a second.

    - rewrote the whole arrow key nav
    - disabled the arrow keys nav feature when searching
    - you can now ask the solution with alt+s (if you use the arrow keys nav)
    - if you use a modifier key, the feature should be disabled too (like alt+left should go to the previous page on your browser but not go to the previous shot anymore)

    DVD covers/shelf are now back, things to know:

    - All the previous covers were deleted and your shelfs too (we use a complete different system now so it was not recoverable)
    - We have no covers from now (well 1k max), covers are being reimported slowly by visiting movie pages (its laggy on first load then its fine)
    - From now on, Scruffy will import automatically covers for movies which have just been added
    - Every two weeks Scruffy will check if there are new covers for any movie and add them

    I'll try to modify the display of the covers (alphabetically I think) and also add an upload feature

    - added vietnamese as language
    - your title shots are now displayed in order but only for you, the other players will still see them randomly
    - 50k covers were imported so now 98% of movies added on WTM have at least one cover

    There is one more thing with the arrow navigation:
    I understand that pressing right or left during typing in a solution will lead you to the previous or next shot.
    But would it be possible to remove the "pressing up function" while one is in the drop down menu for selecting an already existing solution? It's really frustrating when you pushed down one entry too far and by reflex press up. Instead of solving the shot you are on a random snapshot page^^

    I just introduced the auto-complete feature for @nicknames on shots page. It's a version early version so it might change a bit:



    Basically when you will write "@", it will give you some suggestions to help you write users name faster. Users listed are:

    - The poster
    - The first solver
    - Any player who vote deleted
    - Any player who shouted
    - Any player who faved the shot (supporters only)
    - The staff

    You can use the up/down arrow key to select the username and press enter (or write some characters of the username and press enter when there is only one selection left). I already know that I have to exclude our own username if we are in the list but I forgot!

    edit: fixed

    Sounds great. It displays to supporters who favourited a shot (which is not availble up to now).

    But it is buggy, at least with firefox (linux or MacOS): only "MrZob/Asmodai/kinoute" are available. Other players are quickly displayed but cannot be selected.

    Supporters should be able to see who favourited their shots since forever! I don't get it:



    and if you click on the icon:



    The bug you're talking about is related to the emplacement of your pointer I guess. Maybe if your pointer is where the list is created, it will scroll automatically to the bottom.

    Simply grrrreat work so far!!!
    As you can see on my page, I was a good boy and I refilled my shelf with aprrox. 80% of all my (owned) movies so far.
    I hope the alphabetic order system will work soon, so it will be much easier to avoid dupes :-)
    ...and maybe one day we can put our movies in any order by drag and drop (I'm just dreaming ;-)))
    ...and maybe, maybe another day a cover will appear in the language in which it was typed (another wet dream of mine)
    Talking about the languages: It is very interesting to see, how different the cover art can be in different countries.
    Therefore, I sometimes hardly recognize my movie, esp. when there is a large number of suggestions (e.g. Dracula).
    On the other hand WTM's language is english, so the covers should probably only appear in english as well....
    ...hard decision...
    But the suffering is at high level, so dear kinoute, continue your brilliant work as Kill Bill's Kiddo did: "First things first!"

    - You can now vote with alt+X if you have the arrow keys navigation enabled. It's a very early version:
    alt+1 to 9 rates the shot 1 to 9
    alt+0 rates the shot 10

    - You should be asked to provide a webstore link at the end of the uploading process if you try to upload a shot from a recent released movie (2013/12) with no shot in the db

    Searching for the tt-number also works, since you need to open IMDB anyways to add the movie. This way you can avoid problems caused by the movie being there under the wrong name (I think we got most, but there are probably still some old ones there).

    Also works for the regular movie search, when you can't find a movie with a weird title! (e.g., foreign titles with spelling mistakes or something).
