Hey!
You can now use an authenticator app to protect your account with two factor authentication.
With this enabled, you will have to enter in your username and password as well as a one time password that will be generated with an app like Google Authenticator, Apple Safari, Twilio Authy, 1Password, or another authenticator app.
It's so much easier than it used to be and I HIGHLY recommend you use two factor authentication!
To enable two factor authentication... Login to your account -> Click MENU -> Under "Change Password" you'll now see "Two Factor Authentication". Click "Two Factor Authentication" to enable extra security on your account.
I highly recommend this!!!
We've added a handy new feature. You can now see how many total guests you have. Each entry in your address list has a "Total Guests in Party" field. We take and add up all of those numbers. Boom! Look for this number at the top of your address list!
As of November 15, 2016, when you delete an address, it is actually just thrown in your trash can instead of permanently deleted.
From the trash, you can either restore it or permanently delete it.
To restore a deleted address...
Click on "Filters".
Scroll to the bottom of the "Filters" popup and click on "Trash".
Select the addresses you want to restore then click "Restore checked Addresses".
Done!
Alternatively, if you really want to delete the address, you can click "Permanently delete checked Addresses". But don't say we didn't warn you! That will remove them for good!
To export and download your addresses...
Click "MENU"
Select "Download/Export Addresses"
Click the "Check All" button to select all of the addresses on the page. If you have more than 100 addresses you'll need to click the "Next" button to go to the next page and click "Check All" again. Do this for each page of addresses.
Click the "Download Selected Addresses" button
A CSV file will be downloaded to your "Downloads" folder. This file can be opened in any spreadsheet program such as Excel or Numbers. It can also be opened in any text editor.
Done!
You can now change "Notes" to whatever you want your visitor to leave. You can also change the "Name" to something more specific as well.
Go to "Website Settings and Photos" and change "Label for 'Notes' Field" to whatever you want. By default it is "Notes".
You can also change "Label for 'Name' Field".
We have made the awesome ability to be able to print on your labels right at home, and it is so simple! The ability to do this, was one of the main reasons we made this website. When we were first trying to figure out how other people collected addresses, well that was a nightmare. THEN we tried to figure out how people actually got the addresses onto the envelope..(without handwriting a million of them) and holy cow! Trying to figure that out was even worse.
Sooo, let me walk you through how to print the labels at the peace of your own home* (not that you need it, because it's pretty self-explanatory on the website already)
Sign Up for freeee and create a website (easy peasy)
Edit your website by adding beautiful pictures of yourself, adding a title..and so on..
Either import your CSV file (an excel file works, but it's easier with a CSV) OR share your new URL with your family and friends via Facebook or however.
When you are ready, click "Print Labels" on the lefthand side
Pay a measly $29.99 (sorry, we have to make a living somehow!)
Pick your label size
Pick your font and color
BOOM! Print right at home!
This website does not include a printer, must have one on hand.

We added this feature so we could share our address list with our parents. That way they could comb through the names and add anyone that we missed from the old neighborhood.
This is how it's done...
We'll send them an invitation to collaborate on the address list with you and let you know when they accept!
Note: This will give the user the ability to view, add, edit, tag, and organize your addresses but they will not have the ability to make changes to your website settings or photos.
