Code push imminent... UPDATE: code push done!

[karzilla]

We are planning did do a code push tonight! The exact timing will depend on people's availability but it should be sometime between 9:30PM EST and 11:30PM EST. Most of the changes included in this code push can be found in the most recent code tour.

Here are the new updates you are most likely to notice and appreciate:

• fix for /customize applying intended community style changes to the logged-in user
• fix for /manage/circle/edit not saving some changes
• two new mood themes from Socchan
• modernized design for the /poll/create page
• modernized design for the /manage/profile page
• support for adding Steam usernames on user profiles

We don't anticipate any meaningful user impact, apart from a bit of slowness here and there as things restart, but we'll be sure to let you know here and on Bluesky if things go unexpectedly pear-shaped.

UPDATE: deploy is done, let us know how things are going? 😉

Hallu! Hope this is the place to raise this. I have a couple of friends who have been trying to sign up, but they keep getting a 403 error when they do? :(

Also, if this has been answered elsewhere, please let me know!

I'll answer it here: it's most probably due to spam causing temporary overload, and it resolves quickly!

If it doesn't resolve in a few days, have them email support@dreamwidth.org please!

We emailed and got a response, thank you so much!
