John -

Thanks for these great tips. At the moment I am having other issues with items not being displayed properly and I don't want to start editing templates until I get those fixed. Apparently I found a very subtle bug in one of the jrComment modules that can't be fixed in the skin.

But - once I get these issues ironed out I will certainly take a look at implementing these suggestions. And, yeah, I will probably go back to the default of scrolling lists in all the content blocks and the pagebreak. I turned them off because I didn't like the overall scroll behavior of the page when the cursor enters one of the blocks and it starts scrolling, not thinking about the other problems it might cause.

But why are they not displayed when I search on a member name?

I have sent an email off to the member who created the blog post asking her if she deleted it.

On a related note, while trying to find out what's going on ... does site-wide search include blogs? It didn't group discussions until I added the discuss_description field to the search global config. The member (landen-z) has created 30+ blogs but they do not show up in the search results:

There is an entry in the timeline datastore browser (id 532)

New blog post shows up in the Activity timeline.

Clicking on the link to the blog post in activity timeline:

http://www.thechocolatelife.com/landen-z/blog/609/cocoa-bean-quality

Takes me to:

http://www.thechocolatelife.com/landen-z/blog

And there is no indication that the blog exists on that page.

The blog is NOT listed in the list of recent blog posts on the home page.

There is no blog with an ID of 609 in the datastore. How is that possible?

What's going on? These things appeared to be working properly on Sunday -- but stopped working on Monday.

I am completely confused about why

Home page content block not updating, bad URLs in Activity feed

In the template editor.

That said, the timestamps looking at the files in the FTP client don't show changes from Jan 12! This is because changes to the skins are stored in the db, right?

This is the line that selects what to display (in index.tpl):


I don't see anything restricting things to just me.

If something got updated, I did not do it.

These changes are in index.tpl? It's impossible to get a timestamp as updating any template file on a page updates the timestamps on all of them. Or at least it does in my system. I made footer.tpl inactive, saved changes, now all of the modified template files have the same modification timestamp.

On a related note, and I apologize for doubling up -

The Latest Forum Posts content block on the home page is now only showing posts I created.

It's not showing ones I add comments to and it's not showing posts created or updated by other people.

This was working properly yesterday. I know it was.

Okay gotcha. I was writing the below when the above came in.

Not a 100% fix in the Activity timeline on the home page. This URL is still bad:

http://www.thechocolatelife.com/greg-gould/forum/14634/pate-de-fruit -- 404

When I swap out my name it expands to:

www.thechocolatelife.com/clay/forum/14634/pate-de-fruit
http://www.thechocolatelife.com/clay/forum/tech-help-tips-tricks-techniques/14634/pate-de-fruit

and the page displays properly.

There are two posts from Greg Gould that are bad, and going back, one from Priscilla that is also bad, can't see a pattern in the skips. Some but not all of the David Menkes ones appear to be fixed.
