LJ Update Creates Comment Problems....

Account Status: All
Theme: Flexible Squares and Nebula
Actions: Full Size Comments Bar Appearing In Custom Posts.

It is quite possible if you have a layout that was created from scratch you are seeing a comments error on your journal. Here is an example:

I'm betting LJ's update messed something up so we will all just have to wait and see if they fix it anytime soon. And yes, it does feel like every time LJ fixes something they break something else. Let's hope this is resolved soon.

I really wonder why... It was really awesome the last few weeks. But now nothing's working. -.-

See for me it wasn't awesome the last few weeks. All of lj was totally messed up and until a week ago I went 2 weeks without being able to really post.

They've been having some major issues for about 3 weeks now.

Ughhh. They should really have more people on their team. LJ is still slow for me and doesn't want to post comments, and when it does post it leaves like 3.

It shouldn't take this long to fix a problem. Their update was only about movie night, why would they mess around with different codings? Doesn't make sense.

Also, I noticed the footer bar in abc_onceupon and my person journal - and I'm just like LJ messed up another thing.

It is so frustrating and I'm betting that is part of this error because it is messing with comments/footers. Hopefully they will resolve the issue soon.

Well, actually they just updated the LJ system to compensate for the last error and then when they updated the Scrapbook system. I'm betting they constantly fix bugs on their coding and when they upload it to the system, if they are missing just one closing bracket the entire site can freak out. I know... I've done it to my own site.

Yep. It is frustrating but at least that error doesn't prevent us from using the site like the last one.

Thanks for the info, I was getting pissed about that. Now, let's gonna wait ( ... )

This pro isn't as much of a pro as you'd think ( ... )

Don't say that; you have more experience and always share it here to help us very kindly. Even if you don't know how to solve a problem, you try to find out how to fix it for us. So, at least for me, you're pretty pro XD

Thanks for your advices! I feel relieved, hope everything will be actually okay with all these updates and LJ keeps improving without fucking us too much. I've seen you finally found out how to fix that odd comments bar problem, so thanks for it too, I'm gonna edit the code right now! :D

About Weebly, I'd like to ask you one last question: can we organize the content of our website in "pages", like Wordpress? I think you told me about that feature, some time ago, when I asked you about the differences between the most popular platforms of blogging. That "page feature" is something I really miss in LJ, so if I can find it in Weebly, I'll set there my home site. You convinced me with its advantages :)

Thank you so much again for all your help! ♥

Thanks. I try.

Believe me I've been worried about that too but it seems to keep working out.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean. Are you referring to having pages and blog posts as two separate things at Wordpress. If so... yes. If you mean can you see a list of them like at Wordpress (in the Dashboard) then no. Let me show you what I mean...
