images and JS loading problems

Some people are having problems loading images (icons in particular) and static content such as Javascript right now -- we've been testing out a new content delivery network (CDN) to speed up access to static content, and it seems like a small percentage of people can't load things from the network. Hang tight, we'll get it fixed as soon as possible.

I'm not sure if this is covered by the "static content such as Javascript" thing but I'm not able to make any posts. The box for writing in is almost acting like it's greyed out. Can't get a cursor to blink at me in there. Thought I'd say just in case it's a problem you're not aware of yet :)

At least that explains my update page not working either. Glad to hear you guys are aware of the problem and are working on fixing it. I can just sit back and relax, knowing it's in good hands. I have complete faith in you.

If it doesn't load, please try holding Shift and clicking your refresh button. Then let me know if it loads.

FYI while we're working on this: Possible temp workarounds to post (though you won't have your RTE):

* Go to Entry Editor Settings, switch to "HTML" instead of either Rich Text or Last Used.

* opt into the new beta page


But we'll work on it and try to get things fixed as soon as we can!

Thanks for always being so quick to (try to) fix things, much appreciated

Some chance, yes! At least for iPhones.

I'm working on learning iOS programming in my free time, and I hope to make something very straightforward in the future. My intent is just something that will let you upload photos you take, and probably do quick posts. No HTML editing, just text.

It's way too early to promise anything though. This is just something I'm working on in my spare time -- which isn't exactly copious. One day if I work for Dreamwidth fulltime again... :)

Unsure if this is related, but the hover menus over the icons are gone this morning for me. All I get is the keywords instead of the usual "add/remove/post message" stuff.

ETA: though it still appears when hovering over the userhead so really this isn't that big an issue and now I'm trying to work out if I've always done it that way, l-lmao.

Also unsure if this is related, but I'm having a problem with my inbox notifications. Up by where we can access our profile and account settings is where it's telling me that I have a message, but there is no notification in the inbox itself.

I also wanted to thank you for your quick response to the RTE problem.

Edit: Nevermind, it started working now.

Hover menus missing

[personal profile] marahmarie 2012-10-22 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Contextual hover for user icons has gone missing for me and at least one other person here: http://dw-maintenance.dreamwidth.org/50539.html?thread=1601899#cmt1601899

There are no hover menus anywhere on DW, not in site scheme nor on custom pages.

(edit) Slight correction: the tiny little DW icon next to our usernames still produces contextual hovers; the user icons do not.

Re: Hover menus missing

http://db.tt/Hj4JexeO

Instead of the white box that pops out when a person hovers on an icon, it now pops a text message (similar to html span title).

Not as big of an issue as the unresponsive RTE for me, but still hope to see this resolved anyway. Thanks!

I'm not on any beta btw. :)

I'm not sure if this is related, but the site skin is not loading properly for me. Other stylings are working fine, but the front page and comment threads like this one have negligible styling and what would be the hover menus and log in information, are all at the bottom of the page.

I, too, can't expand comments for the same reasons.

Not sure if this is related or not, but when I try to edit icon keywords on the manage icons page, I keep getting a "503 Service Unavailable" error whenever I hit the save button. This has been going on for the last two days.

[personal profile] growsintheshade 2012-11-06 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
Since I figure it's related,

My icons have been slowly disappearing/not-loading over the last few days. At first it was just one, but then more and more of them stopped loading, so now it's about a dozen or so. Trying to upload the same icon without deleting the one that isn't loading doesn't work so I guess it detects that the same icon is already there, but they don't show up.

I get this error message if I try to view the individual broken icons.

"Oops!

If you've gotten this error, it means that something is currently (and, with luck, temporarily) broken. Please wait five minutes and try again.

If the problem persists after five minutes, please check our offsite status page to see if we're aware of the problem. If we haven't updated it, drop us an email and let us know something's broken. (Be sure to tell us what you were doing.)"

[personal profile] growsintheshade 2012-11-06 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
The icons still show up when I use Chrome, so it could just be a firefox thing? A friend of mine actually had the same issue earlier.
