This page describes the extremely useful expedite feature. See also cohorts.

Overview

Peter finds that a Pluckeye delay of 2 hours works well for him. But waiting 2 hours for every change is sometimes inconvenient. He wishes he could give Susan the ability to approve any changes he makes without waiting for the 2 hour delay. He can, using expedite.

How to set it up

To use expedite, you first must create an account for yourself on https://u.pluckeye.net/ . After that, you’ll need to set up one of following options for getting approval for expedite requests:

1. Cohorts (mutual support with other Pluckeye users).
2. Supporters (specific people you trust such as friends).

Making an expedite request

An expedite request can be made by clicking the “expedite” button.

In Pluck 1.0, the button is on the “config” page, next to each pending configuration item. In Pluckeye v0.99.x and below, the button is in the main panel of Pluckeye buttons. One may also make expedite requests using https://u.pluckeye.net/supplications/new . In addition, expedite requests can be sent to u.pluckeye.net for all future configuration changes by typing the following in a console.

Approving an expedite request

Expedite requests show up and can be approved at https://u.pluckeye.net/queue . The web page uses “notifications” so that by loading it into one of your browser tabs, you can be notified of an expedite request without needing to actively check the page.

Avoiding expedite

If you have abused the expedite system, even once, you should probably use the noapproval option to prevent yourself from doing that again.

After that, mourn the loss of the really useful expedite feature, and keep on Pluckin’.
