News & updates tagged 'submit to core'

It’s Halloween! So it must be time for the Oct 2021 edition of the CLZ Newsletter!
October was a quiet month in terms of releases. But the CLZ team has not been sitting still, on the contrary:

At the moment, the entire team is working together on ONE big project, including all developers and all content managers. This is a rare opportunity, but we always enjoy working this way, as it is both fun and efficient.

This time, the big shared project is all about comics and it will result in BIG updates for all flavors of our comic cataloging tools: CLZ Comics 7.0, Comic Collector 22.0 and of course a big update for Comic Connect too (web developers are too cool for version numbers).
Read on for a sneak preview of the new features and improvements.

The topics today:

• 5 updates for Windows with an improved Submit to Core system
• 5 CLZ updates for Android to fully support system font sizes
• Sneak Preview: huge updates for all comic cataloging tools

Here it is, the CLZ Newsletter for July 2021.
Now, this could be a very short newsletter, because we did only ONE release this month: the CLZ Games 6.4 update on July 2 (the one with the new look).
But I won’t let you get away that easily:-) Instead, I am turning today’s newsletter into a big “What’s cooking at CLZ?” overview!

Even though we did no further releases, we have not exactly been sitting on our hands this month. Big projects are underway, some preparing for big releases in August, but also some “behind the scenes” work to improve our online services.

So… here’s what’s cooking:

• CLZ Music 6.4 for iOS and Android: lots of new fields
  support for all new cloud fields that were introduced recently (Musicians, Credits, Headers in track lists, etc..)
• For all Windows editions: new “Transfer Field Data” tool
  an advanced tool for batch copying data from from one field to another.
• Submit to Core site re-write
  a new design and fully mobile ready!
• Moving to a new server infrastructure
  full scalable, more secure and more cost-effective
• Better ISBN coverage for some European countries
  implementing new data sources for European ISBNs.

Here’s CLZ Alwin, with your CLZ News for January 2021.
I hope you are all staying safe. In the Netherlands, we just went into a stricter lockdown, including a curfew, meaning we can’t go outside between 9PM and 5AM. So it looks like we will have to remain in our work-from-home situation for quite a while 🙁

Still, we are now fully set up to work like this, so there’s absolutely no delays here, not in customer support, not in development, not in content management. Here’s what’s new and what’s cooking:

• Windows: New “Pre-fill” screens for Movie, Book, Music and Game Collector
• CLZ Comics: Missing Comics tool
• Connect: Currency selector and Currency Display settings
• Coming up: Audience Ratings from IMDb, for all movie tools
