Logo Icon + Social Links + Shortcuts + Other Lovely Little Improvements

Logo Icon

As much as we love Richard Pryor, we know you all may not be so fond of his image showing as an icon across your site.

You now can remove his image for good and replace it with your logo.

Here's how:
Step 1: Visit your SASS editor: http://doXXX.com/editors/sass/edit
Step 2: Upload your LOGO and MOBILE LOGO directly to the editor.
Step 3: Save changes and your mobile logo will appear as the icon in place of Richard Pryor.
Note: It may take a hard refresh (f5 on PC or "command + r" on Mac) to show the change.

Social Links

You no longer have to notify us when you want your social links updated in your footer! Hooray! We've input a tab in Admin that controls these.

To input your social links:
Step 1: In this tab, select to "Create" a new social link
Step 2: Enter the "Text" for the title you wish to display in the footer
Step 3: Enter the link in the "URL" field and be sure to include http://
Step 3: Select from the social channel to which the link corresponds or just "link" - this designates the icon that appears next to the title.
Step 4. Click "Create"

Important: Until you enter a new social link this way, your site will display your "old" social links that we input. The FIRST social link you enter will override those, so any tests will cause your current links to disappear.

Shortcuts

We have made some changes to your shortcuts so that they work better!

1. Your default shortcut now works so that you can exclude certain categories and neighborhoods from the event results that populate your homepage.
Note: "Meta Text" here is where you can control how your sire is described in the browser. Ex. Do312 - "Chicago, Illinois Music, Nightlife & Events"

2. Repeating events now not only show in shortcuts, they also show as individual listings!  Ex. http://do512.com/events/austin-happy-hours/today - Lots of Happy Hours going on in Austin!

Other Improvements

1. For a day, your users may have been asked to enter their "Nombres" when RSVPing, but we've decided not to try out Spanglish across the network.
2. Your event and user pages have a new "Sidebar HTML" field that enables you to input custom HTML for ads and such.
3. The unsubscribe link in the band email digest was broken but now it is not.
