It’s been quite some time since I’ve posted any updates. There have been several minor changes to the site since 2.0 has gone live.
Here is a summary of the most recent major changes.
- Moderation System – Want to be a moderator? Contact us and let us know why you feel you would like to become a UPC Food Search moderator.
- Facebook Connect – You now have the option to login with your facebook account.
- Separated Brand Information from Manufacturer Names – We felt this needed to be separate from the manufacturer’s name, since many manufacturers have brands across several different UPC codes.
- Multiple Manufacturer/Brand Websites – You can now list several websites for a manufacturer and it’s brands.
We have several other features being developed. We will announce them as they are completed.
