code updated

The code push has completed. If you see anything weird or broken, please let us know.

There was a brief error with being able to post entries that has since been resolved. I'm very sorry for that, but it should be okay now.

My network page is now blank. I'm not sure if it's related to the code push or not, but it had things appearing on it a few days ago.

Same goes for my network page.

Hmm, I did a spot check, and I see stuff on your network page. Are you still seeing a blank page?

Huh, no, now everything seems normal. Before, it was switched to Transmogrified default layout and empty.

I think it may have been a case of caches needing to fill up with data, right after the code push. So, basically, the information we needed to build the network page wasn't there (and now it is)

Does that usually happen after code pushes and/or is it something we should expect to happen after code pushes? This is the first I've happened to check my network page soon after a code push, and I don't want to keep going "o hay my network page is empty" on these posts if it's something that's par the course.

Probably better to mention it then not. -- Better to know about something that isn't a problem then to not know about something that is.

What [personal profile] exor674 said.

And hmmm, well it's something that may happen after every code push, but won't necessarily always happen.

Basically, the network view uses some cached data to build itself up. Some code pushes (not all, though), we need to flush the cache of all data to get new stuff working properly, which causes the network view to be empty. It should start showing entries again as the cache fills up -- normally with some activity by you and the people you read.

So it's nothing to worry about, but we really appreciate your taking the time to report these things to us!

I'm seeing a few things there now -- how does it look to you?
