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!

Just to make sure, you’re using the “updated Stuff” beta, right?

- Obscured prev/next links: ah, yeah, that’s bad, thanks for pointing it out! We’ll fix it.

- Link color: only semi-on-purpose. There were already two different versions of each site skin, and for some reason the newer version of the “light” one used different colors. Now it’s more noticeable because comment pages use the new version.

Yep, updated stuff and new entry page are both on.

So turning on updated stuff switches the site skin? I reckon that's a feature!

Yeah, with most of the skins people before me already went to some effort to make both versions look pretty similar, so the differences are less noticeable. “Light” is special. We’ll be thinking more about whether it needs extra help before this leaves beta.

I’m also noticing that format=light no longer respects my browser font default, which I establish the easy way (through browser settings) instead of style sheets. Is there a good reason for that?

Also, I do my reading list from
https://www.dreamwidth.org/mobile/read
which could be contributing to the issue?

And JSYK, I’m posting & editing this reply form my phone and it’s feels a lot easier, for reasons I can’t articulate. Your work is appreciated!

Yeah, that's some of what I meant by the old "light" being "special." Old "light" had very little CSS, so it never actually SET a font size at all! The new "light" does.

We'll need to think a bit about how to deal with "light." It might end up being "visually light" instead of "raw-ass html light" going forward, or we might re-implement some special behavior for it. Kind of depends on a lot of things.

If it helps in your decision making, having one view that respects the user's browser defaults is definitely handy for this low-vision user.
