One of our goals is to give our clients features that they want and need, so last fall we surveyed our clients and asked for ways that we could improve our software and make their lives easier. One of the answers we heard over and over was the ability to create different levels of admin access.
So you asked, and we listened! With Version 1.6, you now have the ability to regulate the access levels of all admin users on your admin site.
If you want to let a user help on certain parts of your site but not others, you now have the control.
In this video tutorial, Jessica will teach you how to set the access levels for your users.

Our partnership with the Chowchilla-Madera County Fair has been a long time coming! We first met them at the IAFE Convention in Las Vegas. We were so happy they joined us for our happy hour, and we really had a chance to get to know Dana and her husband, Peter, over cotton candy cocktails.
At WFA, we were excited to reconnect and tell them even more about what we had done to enhance the Saffire software since the last time we were together. After several more meetings, we couldn’t be happier to officially welcome the Chowchilla-Madera County Fair to the Saffire community.
Since they current contract was just about to expire, we are working as fast as we can to get their website back up by March 1. Can’t wait that long? Okay, here is a sneak peek of what their website will look like.

The Amador County Fair in Plymouth, CA is the newest member of the Saffire community. We first met Troy at the IAFE Convention in Las Vegas, but really had a chance to get to know him at the WFA Convention when he attended our presentation on mobile marketing. And the rest is history!
We’re getting ready to launch their website soon to give them plenty of time to take advantage of Saffire’s features and benefits before their event this summer from July 26-29. Check back soon for more details on when you can see their new site for yourself.

When we decided to host a happy hour at the IAFE Convention in Las Vegas, we knew one thing was a must: a cotton candy cocktail. After a quick search online, we realized there were hundreds of recipes, so the only solution was to have a cotton candy cocktail tasting.
Each of the team members in the Austin office found a recipe that sounded delicious, and we got together for dinner and a tasting one evening after work.
Several rounds of very pink cocktails later, we took a little bit of this recipe and a little bit of that recipe to create the cocktail you’ve all come to love.
At our parties at IAFE and TAF&E, we had several requests for our recipe, so here it is! Please watch this video as our resident bartender, Jessica, teaches you how to make your very own cotton candy cocktail.
Recipe
One part Pinnacle Cotton Candy Vodka
One part cranberry juice cocktail
A splash of orange juice
A large poof of cotton candy
According to the 2000 Census, the main languages spoken in the United States are English, Spanish, Chinese, French and German. It is estimated that around 28 million people in the US speak Spanish. That statistic got us thinking: why wouldn’t you want to reach an even larger segment of the population by allowing your site … Continue reading “Saffire 101: Website Translations”
According to the 2000 Census, the main languages spoken in the United States are English, Spanish, Chinese, French and German. It is estimated that around 28 million people in the US speak Spanish.
That statistic got us thinking: why wouldn’t you want to reach an even larger segment of the population by allowing your site to be translated into Spanish? And even French and German? It quickly became clear this was a feature we needed to include.
In this quick video, Adam will show you how simple it is to set your site up to be translated to another language now that we have integrated with Google Translate.

Saffire has officially expanded beyond the Texas border…all the way to Florida! Since the IAFE Convention in Las Vegas, we’ve been talking with Terry at the Okeechobee County Fair about becoming a Saffire client. And we are pleased to announce that they have finally joined the Saffire community!
Terry’s name may sound familiar, because he was the lucky winner of our TV drawing at IAFE! (I’d definitely say we started out this partnership on the right foot, wouldn’t you?)
Since their event is sneaking up so fast on March 13-18, we’ll wait until after their event to get started on their new site.
Please join us in sending best wishes to Terry and his team for a successful event this year. We can’t wait to get started!

Working on updates to our software is like keeping a secret you just can’t wait to share, but today is the day we can finally tell! With Version 1.6, we’re releasing several new features our clients have requested. We also took a good look at our existing features and made some enhancements we think you’ll really like!
We’ll be updating our clients’ websites this evening, so here are a few highlights you can look forward to.
Crop and center your photos with our new image cropping tool. (This was our #1 customer request. Proof that if you ask, we listen!)
Your events will be even more interactive now that you can upload videos from YouTube into an event media gallery, the same way you’ve been uploading photos.
Regulate access levels of your admin users so they can only make changes to certain categories.
Reach a wider audience now that your customers can translate your website into Spanish, or several other languages, with Google Translate.
We now integrate with ShoWorks! After you enter results into ShoWorks, you can import them into Saffire so they will appear on your website.
If you use SaffireCommerce™, you now have the ability to add tax, shipping and fees to online orders.
Do you need to restrict the sharing of a photo on your website? No problem! You can now decide if email and social media share icons are included at the bottom of a photo.
We also did some overall enhancements to the interactive map, dynamic pages and dynamic forms.
Our goal is to make the tools we create for you as user-friendly as possible, but we know sometimes you need a little help to get started. In order to provide the support we believe you deserve, we maintain a Help Desk that answers frequently asked questions from our customers.
