I released Keyword Transformer Professional Edition version 1.3.1 yesterday. It finally includes the much-requested encrypted keywords feature, and also I have added a few buttons in the combiner that instantly swap phrases between windows, which makes it a lot easier to produce multiple specific orders of keyword lists.

Updates are now available; if you are outside your period of free updates, please visit http://keywordtransformer.com/updates.php to find out about my competitive prices for my update service agreements.

There is one known bug in this edition that I haven’t had time to fix yet. That is that if you have any blank lines in the combiner windows, these are treated as lines containing words, and you will then get duplicates. This is perhaps least obvious when you have a blank line at the end of a list of keywords, because it is invisible. To detect this issue, move the cursor down to the very end of the list (hold the down arrow key down until the cursor stops moving) and then if the cursor is on a line by itself, keep pressing backspace until the cursor is on the very last line containing text.

As always, please send me feedback about any features that you may find useful, or any bugs you notice.

Have fun with 1.3.1!

Hello all,

It’s been some time since a new release of Keyword Transformer! However, I am close to releasing a new version of Keyword Transformer Professional Edition that provides encrypted keywords in URLs if desired. It is in need of some testing. I am therefore starting a beta programme. The conditions are as follows:

• Membership of this beta programme is open to owners of Keyword Transformer Professional Edition only. How you own it doesn’t matter – whether you purchased it or were given a promotional copy. If you only own the personal edition, you are not eligible.
• You do not need to be within your 90-day free upgrade period – this doesn’t matter.
• You must inform me of the email address you used when you purchased the product. If it has changed, you need to supply your new email address as well.

If you are interested in testing Keyword Transformer version 1.3.0 and you satisfy the above conditions, please add a comment to this post. Please also open a ticket at the helpdesk under the beta category that includes your email address – please do not submit it here as it would be published if you did so. The first ten people to complete both of these steps and who meet the conditions above will be invited to participate in the programme.

I anticipate that the programme will last about a week, though I reserve the right to extend it if necessary. If selected for the programme, you will be expected to test the new version of Keyword Transformer Professional Edition and any pre-release updates, and submit a report telling me what bugs you found.

I am offering free updates for a year to anybody who participates in the programme and reports back to me regarding their experience.

Many thanks,

David Thomas.
