Spam word issues and bigger thumbnails

If visitors have been having issues leaving comments on you blog, check to make sure the anti-spam word is showing up when you are logged out. If it is not, it’s a problem with the theme. It should be right around the area where a vistor types in their name, email and website. Just email me the theme you are using and let me know if it’s missing, I can fix it right quickly. As far as I know, most themes are catching it, but I did have to fix one this evening.

Also, while working on another project, I figured out how to change the default thumbnail size. It won’t be so tiny any more! I made it go from a skimpy 128 pixels all the way up to 200pixels. This doesn’t affect photo thumbnails that have already been made, but will be done on any picture upload from this point onward. Enjoy.

Signups and new blogs are good to go again

With a lot of Ron’s help - okay, he did it. He fixed the new blog creation, right in the code. Give him a hand.

I re-created all the blogs that were sitting there half-done or waiting for activation and emailed everyone. If anyone has any issues, or didn’t get any emails with passwords, PLEASE email me and let me know.

I am going to cross my fingers and hope nothing breaks from now until at least January. Or, whenever I go back to tinkering and adding in some cool new features (finally) it won’t upset the applecart.

In other good news, we upgraded the RAM on the server, so thsoe downtime blips shoudl pretty much be elminated. The last big change we made -moving to multiple databases - helped eliminate a lot, and the fact that SpamKarma stopped working might have had something to do with that, as it was pretty resource-intensive.

So blog away happily, you chatty bunch, and enjoy the holidays.
