Update 3: Sorry for the extended downtime today and part of yesterday. Upgrades never go as planned!
We promise it will all be worth it in the end. Please let us know if you experience any further problems.
Tonight we completed a major upgrade of our website software. You won't notice any major differences yet, but this paves the way for quite a few new features and cosmetic changes over the next couple of weeks. In the near term, here are a few things to be aware of:
- User names are now Case sEnsiTive (as are passwords). If you are having trouble logging in, check to make sure that you are entering your user name with the same capitalization (or lack thereof) as in your user profile.
- When you create a new blog post, you may need to click "enable rich-text" below the Body form to get the editor controls.
- NEW: You may also want to clear the cache on your browser. The cache sometimes causes login problems, and it will also cause some format changes in the site to not work correctly. For example, if "Think Progress..." at the top of the front page is in a very small font, this is caused by the browser cache. On Firefox you can clear your cache by going to Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Cache -> Clear Cache Now.
- We apologize for the slow performance during and after the upgrade. We have cleaned things up a bit, and it should be better now.
- The missing read count error has been fixed.
More changes are on the way (hopefully mostly good ones!). Please let us know if you experience any problems.
