Code has been pushed!

Hiya, as per yesterday's announcement, the latest Dreamwidth code has been deployed.

This is the issue/bug/problem tracking post! Please let us know if you see anything... untoward.

Fixed

  • Posting an entry would tell you that your password was blank.
  • API key generation/deletion was... behaving a little weird.
  • Profiles pages were converted to Markdown, but this was too soon. I've put them back to raw HTML, they should look like they did before the push!

Known Issues

  • Chrome auto-filling in password forms, when trying to post as the already logged in user, results in an error. Still haven't fixed this one, but we will.
  • Reports of logging out possibly not? Need more information, login/logout work for me. Seems transient?

And as a reminder, if you use Semagic et al, please check the link above for information on how to configure it to keep working with Dreamwidth!

Can confirm that ljdump works with the API key change. I tested it without making a change and got a Python error message that indicated an invalid password. I edited ljdump.config and replaced my plaintext password with the generated API key I got from following the link in the previous dw_maintenance post, then ran it again. It worked!

For those who haven't heard of ljdump: it's a slightly finicky tool that downloads your DW or LJ posts as XML files, in a form that can then be used elsewhere. I'm using a version from 2010 that has a bug where it puts some non-ASCII text in one of the fields so it's not flawless, but I could probably hack it if needed.
