Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Pottermore is now online after about a week offline.
In the post on the update’s page, they explained that they were working on a number of enhancements during the down time. As told before, users may not notice the changes immediately, as they were focussing on the performance of the site. Though, they did say that users may find changes in the notifications.
We have been working on a number of site enhancements during this time. Once again, you may not immediately notice the differences, as some of the important work we have just completed focuses on site performance. However, you’ll now see some changes in the way notifications work, including a more streamlined dashboard and a refined owl messaging system.
They are asking to come to the site to test the improvements. This can be done by brewing potions, uploading drawings, adding comments, and interacting with Moments and features. This will help monitor the site changes and observe how the site performs.
UPDATE: As a fan on our Facebook page pointed out, the brewing times for potions went significantly down, especially with the Cure for Boils, Sleeping Draught and Wideye or Awakening Potion.
Now that we have finished spoiling the first Pottermore book experience, we are taking the time to make Pottermore News better. *laughs*
Some of the new features that we will be adding to the site include a discussions page, where you will be able to discuss Potttermore with friends and so on, and a new weekly web series where the news stories of the week will be discussed.
We have more ideas planned, but here is where we need your help. We would like you to email, tweet or message us some of your ideas, and what you would like to see on the site.
The clues and seven questions will still be going on over the next two months and there will be a new clue up at 12:01 AM, October 31. Now that you know a little bit of our secrets, our hidden messages may be previews of the site or more information on it.
Because Pottermore was originally going to open tomorrow, we planned this announcement today to coincide with the Pottermore launch. Hopefully the beta period will end soon so everyone can register! We will keep you updated all the latest Pottermore news here, on our Twitter and Facebook.
P.S.
We know that you all want to know the launch date, and we will announce the date soon. Currently, we are looking at the new year to Chamber of Secrets release date for the launch.
In a few previous posts, we have asked you to answer questions or share your opinions in our comment section. It took us awhile to notice we don’t have a comment section! This was obviously a bad mistake on our part! SOOO, for we found out how to add the comment and reaction feedback box, and is now ready to use! This is only phase 1 of many changes! Stay tuned and remember, this is the first of many!
