Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

The HTML sanitizer squashes a lot of things. I'd have to look at a way to tone it down safely & soundly. But since you can use it in a post, it shouldn't be too hard to adopt that logic for taglines I would think.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

EVEN TINIER BUG!

The Buffy/Angel/FF quotes at the top are ever so slightly misformatted. They say:

Spike ,'Help'

Instead of

Spike, 'Help'

As a professional recipient of bug reports, I'm not sure whether to be incredibly sorry for saying so or not.

Nah, don't be sorry. Working out the bugs is a good thing.

Maybe this weekend I can get some things into written into issues and organized.

I can patch some small bugs and then look at the work Gris has done and bundle that with some token-handling refinements into a 1.1 release. Probably won't happen real fast.

Do we know if Robin and Suzi are sorted now?

Oh, and I think I'll need to reset the postgres sequence for threads before a new one can be added. A side effect of migration, so it doesn't show up as a problem with test data.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I believe both Robin and Suzi are sorted, thank you!

Did I mention how happy the favicon makes me? It's such a relief.

Our wings are not tired.

The favicon is wonderful. As is this new board! Thank you again and again.

I am embarrassed to ask this, but did we compensate you for this, Gud? Is there a way to do that? If you had PayPal or Venmo I'd happy send you some $ for your efforts.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The favicon is the "welcome" on the door for me. Thank you for that, and everything else you've put into the new board--Gud, and everyone else involved.

What is even happening?

I've noticed that links in one thread to posts on the old board don't bring you to that post.

For example, go to: [link]

That's a post by Dana in ita's thread.

In it, Dana links to a post by shrift in Natter 43. The URL for that post on the old board was: https:// buffistas. org/read/528/showthread.php?thread_id=162&post_id=7694 (without spaces)

When you click that link, it doesn't take you to Natter 43. It brings you right back to ita's thread. URL: https: // buffistas . org/read/528/370 (without spaces).

Same thing in the next post: [link]

Nilly links to my post in COMM, but the old URL doesn't exist any more, so the link defaults to the URL of Nilly's post.

I see the "528" in all those URLs and that seems to be the thread number for ita's thread on the new board. I don't know if this is fixable, or if it is, if it's worth fixing, or a priority. I just wanted to note it.
