Hey no worries at all I get it! It's terrible timing really. Same boat here. neutral

I really have not figured out Patreon but I am running so many projects and people here in the past have asked if they can help support WB. I figured it is both an easy way to support this site, as well as get my feet wet on how exactly to work with services like Patreon.

Hi everyone! I have been super busy with a new project I've been working on but figured I'd let you know about my Patreon.
I stress that financial support is not needed for this site- but if you are able to contribute and want to- go for it. smile
(Or instead support a charity of your choosing with all that extra cash)

Maybe we could do a tier for changes / improvements to Weeklybeats? (EHEM, MOBILE SUPPORT GAH!)
I still need to figure out how to effectively utilize Patreon.

FWIW I just fixed the issue so if you want to use 'Σngineer' let us know!

Should be fixed.

I'll look into it today. Sorry for the issue.

Hello!
Can I please change my username to ALEXANDroid ?
Thank you!

Updated.

Currently the WB counter is counting down to Jan 1st 2020 Which means the weekly deadline will now be on Wednesdays as oppose to Sundays as it's been in the past.

I am interested in your feedback, we can move it back to Sundays if there is enough support for it.
Personally I imagine it's more of a mental change than a big deal since you'd still have the weekends. wink

I created a poll here.

Hello! So We probably need a few more mods here on the site! AKA PLEASE HALP.

The responsibilities may include:

  1. Quickly going through a few tracks that have been uploaded during the week and verifying they are following the rules.

  2. Helping artists get an upload link when something went wrong with the previous week's upload.

  3. Deleting / banning spammers and their posts when it arises.

You yourself do not have to go through every track but if we all kinda tackle a few it's really no big deal.
If you're interested reply to this thread. Preferably if we know you outside of WB or this is not your first year- or if you have experience modding elsewhere. But hey, beggars can't be choosers. wink

Just ran all of this week's track URLs through a batch invalidator, so if anybody's track previews were looking botched before, they ought to be fixed now!

Thanks dude! TEAM WORK!

I have done so. I will check back in the morning to upload a new file for my tune. Thanks.


I am ready for you to send me an upload link. Where do you plan to send it?

Here! https://weeklybeats.com/music/upload?ha … 28923912e4

Okay it's fixed, at least for the following week since Facebook caches the preview.

Example:

Happened to me as well.

Yeah using facebook dev tool, it has the correctly parsed title, but the "preview" displays only the first "real word"

I believe this is an issue with facebook. The og:title meta tag appears correct in the HTML. Unless I am missing some magical formatting. I can try replacing spaces to dashes or some other hack, but that might be a bit weird.
