Love Me

I just want to say that all my registered users should currently start throwing rose petals at my feet … candy too, if you have any.

Yesterday, I noticed that M made a comment when she thought she was logged in, but it still said “anonymous”. At the time, I thought it was a fluke, or she hadn’t been logged in. Well, no, that wasn’t it at all. In fact, I have no idea HOW it happened, but all the user meta data … as in what name to display with comments, got wiped out of the database. I fear it happened when I changed the user levels, but really I have no clue.

At any rate, as soon as the crisis was brought to my attention, I made it my top priority … even over my grocery shopping … and ended up having to manually change the data on everyone’s profile and in the database. I think I have fixed it for now. Not going to change any user levels for a while anyway, but someday I will have to test that … and then maybe fix everything all over again. Ugh.

Only three members have to re-register, because apparently there is also now a problem with hyphens and umlauts in user names. No idea what that’s about either. I emailed them to let them know the sad news. Double ugh.

So yeah … love on me. It took me forever to do it, and all I really would have had to do was delete the entire set of users and push the work off on you … forcing you all to re-register. Aren’t I wonderful?!

Anyway, I really have to get on with my non-internet life. I haven’t even had lunch yet … or read a single news story … and the day is wasting away. Then, of course, there’s all that damn housework.

If for some strange reason you are having problems logging in our commenting, my email is on the sidebar … drop me a line. Also, everyone may want to log in and fill out their profiles, if you are so inclined. At some point I will be linking to them on the web site. No rush, and you don’t have to if you don’t want to. Just telling you that you can.

    Ok, I scrolled down to read this in order starting back on the first post I hadn’t yet read. Then I got to this one. So it wasn’t just me then! I couldn’t log in or anything yesterday. But it’s working now!

    When I started fixing everyone’s account, I thought to myself “Self, how long can it take? It’s only clicking three buttons on each member’s profile and verifying the database changed!” Famous last words, of course. I’d neglected to look at just how many there were! Once I was into it a ways and getting tired of doing it and saw how many more I had to go, I nearly passed out. Naturally, I couldn’t stop part way done though, so I just had to sit here clicking damn buttons for ages. At least now I don’t think I will ever have to do that again. At least I hope not.

    Makes note to dig leather pants out of closet and find the bullwhip. Sorry … not a crop sort of girl.
