Code push happening shortly!

[mark]

Hi all,

We're doing a code push as mentioned here.

As usual, a code push includes some visual changes (continuing our efforts to modernize common workflows) and also includes some conversions of old pages to be generated in a different way with different markup. As always, we've tested the changes in most of the major browsers and use cases, but some things may break when they meet real-world usage and different technical setups. If we broke it, we'll fix it as soon as we can.

We will be watching this post for comments, so please let us know if you see anything that needs to be addressed and we'll take a look!

Known Issues

• The spellchecker continues to go walkabout. This is intentional, we are deprecating it and removing it. Modern browsers have spellcheck that works in multiple languages and has actually been updated since 1995, so there's no reason for Dreamwidth to continue to try to maintain one.

Fixed Issues

• FAQs had gone missing. Well, the answers. They're back now.
• Replying to comments was incorrectly routing you back to the top level view, rather than the view of the thread you were on. This is fixed.

As always, please do keep an eye on our Twitter account dreamwidth.

Did the spamwhacking pages shed some of their styling (like borders), or is my memory that they used to have those faulty?

kareila and momijizukamori converted a whole bunch of less-traveled pages to the new styles, so it's very likely that that was one of them.

No, I haven't made any changes to the spamreports pages since their initial conversion several years ago, so if you notice a difference with this code push, it's likely because of changes to the stylesheets.

I can't swear that they used to have some, I'm not sure offhand where these style sheets would be to check their history, and I never got into CSS3 (I can barely parse CSS2), so... *shrug*.

The buttons look different to me, but that's not a change I care about.
