coupon notifications

Wednesday, June 7th, 2006

are nearly here! I wrote the base functionality last night, and I’ll be working on the details this week. Soon you’ll be able to log into hngry and immediately see which of your restaurant coupons will be expiring soon, so you can actually use those coupons you’ve got lying around. Rock!

A bug fix.

When using the automatic restaurant feature, if hngry came across a restaurant name that contained an ampersand, it would display it as & in the title… for example: “Pluckers Bar & Grill” would display as “Pluckers Bar & Grill”.  That is no longer the case.  :)

Coding furiously over here…  I can’t wait to roll out these new features! Of course, I’ll be tightening up the ones that are already out as well.

a mini-feature

When you login, there is now an option on the side of “View/Edit Restaurants” named “all at once”.. Click on that and it will show you every restaurant that you have entered, free of pagination. This comes in handy when you want to look up a number for a restaurant quickly. I’m working on getting the list to be sortable alphabetically and by some other items now.

A couple of new features.. (or.. Jim’s wish is somewhat granted)

In response to Jim’s comment today about wanting a field for his favorite meal at a restaurant, and a rating system, I’ve implemented both today site-wide. Everyone now has both a field on the restaurant edit page where they can enter in what their favorite meal is, and you can also select a rating from 1 -5 for each of your restaurants using a radio button.

Hngry will work just fine if you don’t use either one, but if you rate your restaurant and it is suggested to you by hngry, you will now get something that looks like this:
hngry ratings
Of course, the number of stars depends on the rating that you gave the restaurant.

These fields are also in preparation for a sitewide search that will let you find restaurants in your area based on ZIP code or city. I’m working on that now.

Thanks for the suggestions, Jim. Enjoy!

What do you think?

Hngry officially launched today. What do you think about hngry so far?  What would you like to see later on in terms of features?
