I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I got a Fatal Error in the Great Write Way. (The fatal error message is very endearing, BTW.) Hit back and Next again and everything was fine. I had a page crash the other browser I had open at the same time, so I suspect it was related, but I figured I'd mention it.

Now that I think of it, in the future I should probably cut-and-paste the error message, huh? Sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The database server went blinky blinkety.

And the details of the message (for the future) that are important are anything other than the stuff in red, and also what you were doing at the time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hot damn, search thread! Who rocks more than ita? That would be no one.

Lovely, excellent search engine!

(I still think there shouldn't be main-page links to the search page until it can only be used by logged-in users.)

I agree Lizard. I'm thinking we can add a link in the left column right below "View bookmarks."

ita - do you want me to try and code this in the test main_left?

Also, I'd suggest making search.php only disply the search form if the user is registered and logged in.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I still think there shouldn't be main-page links to the search page until it can only be used by logged-in users.

I can go either way, but I'mokay with this.

Also, while I'm thinking about it, I wanted to bring up putting a direct link on the main page to the cafe press store, if at all possible. Still not a priority but it might kick up a bit of extra cash.

Jon, I've got it in the LH column already on the test site, so there's no need. I just don't want to have the search page all out there until I've coded paging through the results. Too big a hit on the server as is.

I don't think we're going to need to spend any money for another year or so, anyway -- assuming we're not at risk for extra bandwidth charges? And we've got a bunch of money in the bank. All I'm saying is, there's no press to raise more money at the moment. Unless there's somthing I'm not thinking of.

Checking test site....

So you do!

What about this:

I'd suggest making search.php only disply the search form if the user is registered and logged in.

Already done, Jon. You'll note it's in the section that you only see if you're logged in.
