Could you please point me where to load an excel sheet list into CT? Thanks.

Sorry I missed this. I think the FAQ is pretty clear: http://www.cellartracker.com/bulkfaq.asp

Hmm, on pure gut feel it seems a bit too promotional and exploitative to me. Of course I reserve the right to judge that differently down the line.

Hey Eric good to see you here. I thought one of the best suggestions you got on the WB thread was to add some ability for the user to add a notation (private) to the various tasters they "follow." That's a great idea and one that would make the TNs much more useful for me. Much as I prefe...

Houndsong wrote:Any plans for promoted/sponsored notes?

What do you mean by that specifically?

It looks like the posers may be the third or fourth round of adopters. Isn't the proper spelling actually "poseur?" I strongly encourage everyone to take advantage of the fact that you can both block/ignore specific tasters and also add tasters to your list of favorites. One man's dreck (...

No problem.

I had one of these about 2 years ago that was OK but underwhelming. Sounds like your provenance and experience was a LOT better! 1988 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande - France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Pauillac (2/23/2007) Seattle Tasting Group does Pauillac (Seattle, WA) : A nice nose, much l...

Excellent! And nice to see an 88 Beau performing well. Not my favorite Beau when I have had it, but any Beau with some age is always pretty nice.

Yes, there were a few notes where there was an encoding glitch in IE. My fix won;t change the already posted messages such as this one. But look at David Glasser's Beaucastel post. He posted an 88 Pichon Lalande note yesterday from IE with roached characters, I made my fix, and then his newly posted...

OK,it should be fixed in IE. Sorry about that.

OK, it should be fixed now.

Crud. OK, the accents work in FireFox (and I suspect Safari and Chrome). It's always IE...

I have an idea for how to fix, but it's a bit of a PITA. Give me a day or so. No changes required from Phil, purely on my end.

99, 100, it's mincing points at that point. It was a really good night of food and vino!

David, what browser are you using?

Ratfarts, pardon my French, but what browser were you using? I'm trying to figure out why it messed up your extended characters.

Not all Bordeaux but the last really good tasting I have been too and with a few great Bordeaux in the midst. JUSTIN'S 31ST BIRTHDAY - Olympia, WA (11/22/2008) Justin Wells has been begging me for a while to make the trip down to Olympia for an evening of great food and wine, and the occasion finall...

1988 Château Sociando-Mallet - France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Haut-Médoc (12/23/2008) Mmm, textbook Sociando and just a delight with a grilled ribeye. Lean, mean, and slightly vegetal. It doesn't sound very good, does it? But this is textbook, loaded with minerality, hints of cranberry, stem and graphite...

1982 and 1985 Lynch are awfully tasty as well and seem to have stood the test of time.

My first tasting note post to BWE using the new CellarTracker auo-link. 2001 Château Smith Haut Lafitte - France, Bordeaux, Graves, Pessac-Léognan (1/23/2009) A promising young Bordeaux. Still loaded with fruit and oak. Whiff of vanilla. Some coffee bean. Bell pepper, tobacco leaf and zingy cherry a...

So how does the auto link work? Bill In CellarTracker write your tasting notes or grouped set of notes (currently known as a TASTING EVENT within CellarTracker). Click TASTING NOTES at the top and then MY UNPOSTED NOTES at the upper left. Click the checkbox to the left of one or more notes and then...

I got a little bogged down tonight trying to make the BWE integration a bit more slick--and hit a deadend. Still not quite done but quite close.

One change that would be nice is growing the default title from 60 characters to 85 characters. A number of wines names get truncated as a consequence of the current limit. I should have my end of the auto-posting code working tonight and then Phil will move it to post to this main forum instead of ...

Phil did the real work. If he is willing to share there are a lot of other phpBB boards (WLDG, FTLOP, Wine Berserker and more) who all want to integrate similarly.

Phil has me working on a solution that looks quite promising. I should have more info tonight when I get a chance to exercise it a bit.
