Code push happening shortly!

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 [twitter.com profile] dreamwidth.

Hi there! It looks the error (comment reply redirects to top level view) is still not fixed, at least on my iPad browser. It works fine on my iPhone. I'm not sure if this is my iPad's fault, as it's very old and I can't update the iOS anymore. But the error didn't exist before. Is this a problem for other people as well? Thanks!

Your iPad may be viewing an outdated version of the page. Try closing the browser (not just switching out of it), rebooting the device, and reopening the browser.

Thank you for your suggestion. I gave that a try, but I'm still getting redirected. I also tried to clear the history and website data. Nothing seems to be working. :(
