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!

Unfortunately, the rich text editor is very old and very buggy in modern browsers -- we've been working on a replacement for the new Create Entries page but we haven't gotten it integrated yet -- so it does tend to break more or less randomly, so I can't guarantee we'll be able to do anything about it, but let us know your browser, OS, and whether it's still broken if you disable all your extensions and try again, and we'll see what we can do.

Still broken after disabling extensions. I'm on Google Chrome and on Windows 10. I can get used to being primarily on HTML, I just prefer Rich Text, so take your time!

Same here. Opera, Firefox, Chrome, the browser doesn't matter. The Rich Text option only appears there, but when I click on it, nothing happens. Help?

Hello!

Has there been any progress with the Rich Text issue? Because it's still not working for me in any of my journals and I tried it on both Firefox and Chrome browsers.

We haven't figured out a cause, no -- I'm sorry. Like I said, the RTE is very, very old, and very, very broken in modern browsers -- we also haven't been able to reproduce the problem, which makes troubleshooting and debugging even harder. Can you try restarting your computer? If our current theory is correct, that may fix it.

Hello!

It's ok, don't worry. I was pinged on this (unofficial ) DW plurk and they figured what was causing the problem. The RTE works for me in all accounts now.

Oh good! I thought you were one of the people who the cache clear on our end didn't work for

Ah no, sorry for the misunderstanding. And thanks for getting back to me still.

It's all perfect now.
