| | | J.K. Rowling's Pottermore beta testing invitation emails sent out beginning today
The Pottermore Insider blog has revealed that the Beta testing for J.K. Rowling's interactive site has begun. Emails are beginning to be sent out to those first million who successfully signed in through the Magical Quill challenge. More on that is below. We’re excited to announce that early access to Pottermore has begun, so if you’re one of the million people who found The Magical Quill and registered for early access, please read the rest of this Insider post carefully.
The most important thing to know is that we need to stagger entry to the ‘Beta’ (early) version of Pottermore so we can properly collect all the feedback. To begin with, we’ll be inviting a very small number of people onto the website, so you may not receive your Welcome email straight away.
We’ll be sending those Welcome emails out over the coming weeks and, once yours arrives, you’ll be able to log in and start helping us develop the Pottermore experience.
As Pottermore Beta users, you’ll be exploring all the different elements of the site and, hopefully, sharing your thoughts with us along the way. How? By using the ‘Beta feedback’ button. You’ll find it located at the bottom right-hand corner of every page on the site, and this is what it looks like.
It’s important for us to know what you enjoy about the site, what you would like to see improved, and that you tell us about any parts you think aren’t working smoothly.
As well as the ‘Beta feedback’ button on the site itself, we’ll also send each Beta user a survey to complete, asking some detailed questions about the Pottermore website.
All this information will be collated and analysed to help make Pottermore as enjoyable, interesting and easy-to-use as possible. A note on registering for October
Very soon, we’ll be opening Pottermore registration for October. This means:
- If you have submitted your email address to be notified when registration is open to all, then you’ll be hearing from us soon, and you'll be able to register for entry in October.
- If you asked to be notified when registration was open to all but also registered for Beta, then you may receive two emails from us. You do not have to register for October if you already have a validated early access (Beta) account. In other words, if you received a Beta ‘Congratulations!’ message then you can ignore the ‘Pottermore registration is now open’ email (although do feel free to forward it to your friends!).
We’ll be updating the Insider with all the latest Pottermore news and information, so please continue to visit the blog.
See you soon!
Let us know if you have received your email! |

Can't wait to get my e-mail

So excited!  Registered on Day 4 and I hope I get my email this week!  I do know some people who got in on 7TH day so.... I think they are doing it randomly.

Sadly, it doesn't matter which day you registered, they are sending the welcome emails randomly.  Oh well, so much for registering the first day. *goes cry in the corner*

I hope I receive mine this week! What I don't get is this; if they want feedback, why are some of the million quill finders not going to be allowed in until last week of September? Right before it is "open to all"?

I registered on Day 2...but I'm kinda glad they're doing it randomly.
I hope that doesn't upset anyone.

I finished the first book 
I'm a Ravenclaw and my wand is made of English Oak, with Phoenix Feather, 12 and a quarter inches, surprisingly swishy!
How exciting!

How exciting! I did too. *waits for second one*
I got into Gryffindor!
Oh, and I joined on Day 2, so I think they're choosing people at random?

I can't wait! I keep checking my e-mail, even though that won't help the owls get my letter here any quicker. There sending them out randomly so it doesn't matter what day you registered.
