Some of our users are experiencing connection problems when using the Yahoo widget and since we (digitalbase) aren’t having enough time to spare, we’re now looking for third-party developers who can develop a new widget for us.
We’d like it to be developed using Adobe Air, so if you’re skilled, interested and up for the job, make sure to have a look and bid at Elance.
If there was one thing our site was lacking, it would have to be a search bar. Until now…
We’ve included a search bar in the top navigation for the public site,
and in the footer navigation for the secured backend,
which will help you find:
We already announced some novelties in the field of API and today we launch the following new functions:
Read the api guidelines for more details…
To all developpers, please keep us posted about your progress and do not hesistate to contact us if you have some suggestions for new functions.
To please more developpers, we introduce today our JSON API.
You could already write your own apps using our API (see documentation), but if you prefer the JSON format than you can now use for example https://secure.trackmypeople.com/api/status.json instead of https://secure.trackmypeople.com/xml/status.
Please note that some xml responses have changed, so if you were already writing an application then you better use the new xml-url, which is https://secure.trackmypeople.com/api/$action.xml, where ‘.xml’ may be ommitted.
All old xml responses remain the same if you use the old url: https://secure.trackmypeople.com/xml/$action, but it will become deprecated and the new responses contain more information.
As always further suggestions are welcome at info@trackmypeople.com.
The developers behind TrackMyPeople love the open-source community & the tools it has given this world. With our new api documentation we’d want to give developers the opportunity to easily interact with the TrackMyPeople engine.
Our own widgets of course already use this interface, but we believe that the best software is developed by & for the community. The software is more inclined to move towards the real needs of the actual users, plus you can’t do everything yourself. With this announcement we’d like to once more ask you for your feedback, suggestions & perhaps we might even feature some of your own applications.
By the way, we’re really interested in an iPhone app for TMP, so if anyone’s interested, feel free to contact us!
Another small list of updates / fixes :
Please make sure to report bugs when you encounter them, as you can see we are quite fast fixing those issues.
You may have noticed we haven't been updating trackmypeople.com that much the last 2 days. In the background we were working on a much requested 'calendar' integration.
Log-in to your account and find out what we are talking about. In the 'my timesheet' section you will find two new buttons : Day View & Week View, these pages will give you a visual overview of the registered timeblocks for that period. Use the controls on top to navigate to previous weeks/days.
You can use the 'edit project' page to set a color for your project, this way all timeblocks for that project will be colored as specified. We will be adding a month calendar overview page soon
