New Cligs Features

I’ve been busy updating Cligs with features requested by everyone who’s been using the service over the past few days, and also tweaking it based on the feedback.

The most important (visible ) changes are:

• New and improved cligs lis page. The old page is replaced with a more user-friendly and useful list of cligs. The cligs are now grouped by destination URL. So if you have many cligs pointing to the same destination, they are now listed together. For each clig in the list, the total number of hits the clig has received is show. Also, the total hits in the group, i.e., the total hits to the destination URL from all the cligs, is also shown. This is the start of many new additions to the summary page.
• You can now delete cligs! This was the most requested feature in the feedback I’ve received and now it’s ready for you to use. The deletion has an important caveat which is explained below.

What Happens on Deletion?

Before you delete a clig, note the following:

• This action is irreversible!
• The clig will start returning a 404 Not Found error when requested.
• The association between your account and the clig ID has been deleted from the database.
• Of course, the clig will not show up in your clig list any more.
• The only thing not deleted from the clig’s record is its ID so that no other clig in the future will get the same ID.
• The clig’s hits are also kept because they are part of the Cligs traffic statistics.

More updates soon. In the mean time, if you have any questions, please ask in the comments below. And of course, more feedback welcome.
