I am testing a potential way of letting people know when new items will be added to the store. Testers are needed. To help us test this, please subscribe using the link above. If all goes well, you will get a test email from us in your inbox tomorrow. Hopefully susie will be able to use this to post announcements before new items hit the store. Only drawback so far is that the announcement emails can only be sent at pre-scheduled times, so we here at Windstone would need to become organized enough to know several hours in advance if we will be putting something in the store, and also put those items in at a certain time. So the announcement might sound something like this: “Today we will be putting such-and-such in the store between 2 and 3pm PST. These are limited production, one per customer, etc etc.”.Testing was successful.
Subscribe to Store Announcements by EmailYou can use the above link to subscribe to store-related announcements via email and be notified before we put brand new items in the store (the announcement emails will probably sound something like this: “Today we will be putting such-and-such in the store between 2 and 3pm PST. These are limited production, one per customer, etc etc.”). After submitting your email address you will need to check your email inbox for a confirmation email. You will need to click the link in the confirmation email to validate your subscription. If you already did all this during the testing phase then you are already subscribed.
This is meant to alert people to NEW items, and will NOT be replacing the “back in stock” notification system.
This system might only be temporary until we can work out a better notification system.
Susie will still be posting store announcements on the forum.

July 19, 2011 at 2:25 pm #851446I signed up! This is a great idea.
July 19, 2011 at 3:40 pm #851448I signed up. This has been a bit of a gripe of mine. Being able to be notified for restocks but not brand new stuff.
July 19, 2011 at 3:43 pm #851449Signed up ! Its a perfect idea !
July 19, 2011 at 4:33 pm #851453I signed up too .
July 19, 2011 at 6:42 pm #851459It is not too late to sign up still. I wlll let you know shortly when the email is supposed to go out.
July 19, 2011 at 7:12 pm #851462I got the email already and confirmed it . It came right after I signed up .
July 19, 2011 at 7:50 pm #851467That was the confirmation email to make sure your email address is correct.
At 1pm PST today (about 20 minutes!) everyone who has signed up should get an email with a test announcement post. The email will be titled “Windstone Editions – Store Announcements” The test post will contain a random store link, an image, and a paragraph of nothing but the letter ‘n’. Again, this will just be a test. When you get this email, please post here with the time that you received the email or the time at which it was sent to you (including your time zone), and let me know if the image and link functioned. Thanks guys!
