Lexington, Kentucky – In mid-May, the American Saddlebred Horse Association (ASHA) launched the new “My Membership” section of its website. The new section offers such functionality as adding and updating user profile, bio and contact information, as well as adding photo and video media to a user’s registered horses. Any horses with media attached will display that media on their pedigree pages for all members to see.
Since the initial launch, ASHA has been working to improve functionality and optimize performance of the “My Membership” section, generally streamlining and simplifying the entire section. As a result of these efforts, ASHA has now released an improved version of “My Membership.”
Among the new section’s more notable enhancements is the addition of a search utility allowing users to search other horse or member names, in an effort to identify horses owned by the user, but which may be linked to a separate user account.
In addition to the “My Membership” section, ASHA is also planning other enhancements to the website, including new “My Trails,” “My Activities,” and “My Meadows” sections. The “My Trails” section will be a trail riding tracking application, which will provide a utility for users to track their trail riding progress. The “My Activities” section will be a tracking program for an individual’s involvement in all the different activities related to the Saddlebred world. This section will allow users to enroll in a wide variety of activities, track time, and more. The “My Meadows” section will allow members to offer assistance in caring for retired Saddlebreds (additional details to come).
As always, ASHA relies on member suggestions for improvements. Comments can be emailed to webmaster@asha.net. Additionally, comments can be left under the “Offer Suggestions” link in the new “My Membership” area of the website.
