2010-05-12 Release 1.0.25 (20100512.1)
Fixed freshlog.com login issue.
2010-04-10 Release 1.0.24 (20100410.1)
I’ve been getting feedback about Freshlog being triggered on every screenshot or image modified. The solution I came up with previously was to have a ‘pause Freshlog’ functionality.
Now you can use the new Freshlog shortcut to selectively trigger Freshlog:
Cmd + Option + 1
Freshlog is almost a year old now and would never be able to become what it is today without your support!
Thank you! :)
Cheers,
Alvin Lai

Jennifer
Thanks for being so longsuffering, hearing me go on and on about Freshlog for these couple of months and for acting as my unofficial co-founder, being there for me to ping my ideas and thoughts off you.
You have always been a source of encouragement and joy. I thank God for you and I love you.
My parents
Thanks for hearing me out at the beginning and continuing to trust in me when I pitched Freshlog to you. In Asia, where entrepreneurship is not all the rage and people are expected to take up full time jobs, your faith in me is admirable.
Thanks for all the encouragement, faith, provisions and most importantly for giving me the opportunity to give this a go.
Ming Yeow
Thanks for taking time to mentor me and helping to shape Freshlog’s direction. Without your input, Freshlog wouldn’t be what it is today.
Ming Yeow’s working on a Twitter tool called MrTweet that helps you “discover great people and followers relevant to you interests”. Do check it out, it certainly has helped identify who I should really pay attention to in Twitter.
Hsiang Hui
Thanks for being my online chat buddy, sharing dev tips and all sorts of interesting links to spruce up my days.
Hsiang Hui’s just released his new SMS Counter for the iPhone, so if you find that you need to track your text messages, do check it out at http://blackfacility.com
Joshua Frappier of Unfuddle.com
Thanks for providing invaluable advice for Freshlog and for being there to chat about things beyond work. You’re a great guy and it’s nice chatting with you.
Will Duncan of Lighthouseapp.com
Thanks for giving suggestions and improvements for Freshlog even during a very busy period you have, really appreciate that.
My beta testers
Thank guys! All the improvements and bug fixes wouldn’t have been possible without your coming forward. I’ve mentioned you in the previous release notes, so you know who you are. Let me know if I missed you out :)
Known issues
- Lighthouse doesn’t support attachment uploads via API yet, so screenshots would need to be hosted on Freshlog.com. Subsequently, you need a Freshlog.com account (signup is free) and login in the app.
- Issue tracker Project, Milestone and People loads asynchronously, UI would temporarily freeze for a quarter of a second (hardly noticeable). This is also something you would need to do only once when u launch Freshlog.
- Unfuddle attachment uploads work, abeit synchronously. UI would temporarily freeze for the duration of the attachment upload (1–2 seconds and depending on how large a screenshot you’re sending).
2009-07-15 Release 20090715.2
Listing Lighthouse people/memberships
Previously, there wasn’t a documented way to do this and I posted a ticket on the Lighthouse Forums, which got answered today, so now you can! :)

Heartfelt Thanks
You would not be able to enjoy all these nice improvements in Freshlog without the following kind private beta testers coming forward. I’m really thankful for all of you!
- @nathenharvey
- For reporting a bug in loading many Unfuddle Projects.
- It’s a great joy working with Nathen, for he really responds in real time. Patient guy who’s accommodating enough to provide me with an Unfuddle login in his account for testing. Even going as far to take screencasts! Thanks Nathen! :)
- @jkeyes
- @Leech
Issue Tracker Integration
- Comment on Unfuddle Tickets by Ticket_Number instead of Ticket_ID (happens when you delete tickets and Ticket Number and ID don’t match)
- Improved loading of multiple projects
- Authenticate via Lighthouse Token instead of user login
