Add a Hostess Code to your entire Showcase or Supply List
A few things to keep in mind when using this feature:
You can now name your embedded showcases so that they are easier to find in your profile.
With the launch of the new store, the product links have been changed. If you were using non-embedded showcases, you can paste your old blog post code containing these showcases into the link converter to change the product links into the new format.
The new SU store was launched at 9am EST this morning. The store has changed the URL structure for its product pages and My Stampin Blog has been updated to begin using them. While these changes to the new store were out of our hands, we are doing our best to adapt. Below is some information for how these changes may affect the content you created before the new store was launched.
Showcases
If you were previously using our embedded showcases, the product links for those will automatically be updated to use the new ones. However, non-embedded showcases created before today (using the old product links) will begin directing to the homepage of the new store as the old store no longer exists. According to SU, your demonstrator number will still be applied to the new store even though the visitor gets directed to the homepage.
Supply Lists
Supply lists created before today can be re-saved to re-generate the PDF document and update the product links. You can access your saved supply lists for editing from your profile page.
YouTube Links
The URLs for our YouTube short link feature that were created before today have been updated to redirect to the new product pages. Note: this only applies to the products that still exist on the new store.
We added a new feature that allows your vistors to add products to their shopping cart directly from your product showcase or supply list! You have the option to show an "Add to Cart" button under each product as well as an "Add All to Cart" button at the end of the product list.
After May 16 when you sign into My Stampin Blog, you will need to update your account profile with your new coach number. If you also changed your replicated Fun Stampers Journey website Url, you'll need to update that as well. You can access your My Stampin Blog profile by clicking here.
Once Fun Stampers Journey releases their new website, we will need time to reprogram My Stampin Blog to work with it. The amount of changes that Fun Stampers Journey makes to their site will dictate the amount of work needed to update My Stampin Blog. It may take a day or more. Fun Stampers Journey does not provide us with any assistance or early access to their new site, so we will see it at the same time every one else does and any changes they make are out of our control.
New Feature!!! Generate short links for your YouTube video description. Click on the "Generate Links" button after creating a product showcase.
We've added support for Fun Stampers Journey Coaches! Fun Stampers Journey products and colors are now available to add to your blog.
Check out our new Color Builder feature. Show the color combinations that you used or start a color challenge.
As of Feb 17, 2016 My Stampin Blog is no longer a free service. The running expenses continue to increase with each new user, and the time spent maintaining the site and answering emails is consuming a significant amount of time. Any showcase that was created under the free tier will continue to function on your blog (excluding Live Showcases). However, to create anything new will require a subscription with the site.
