Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Is anyone else still having to log in every time they visit? It’s across all devices that I use, all Apple.

I'm on a MacBook and no. Did you click on the remember me box?

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Not on my Macbook, yes on my iPhone and iPad.

I’ll check the laptop but mostly I use my phone and tablet.
