Current Site Status
A log of issues and my efforts to solve them.
Temporary solutions often become permanent problems.
—Craig Bruce
Current Status: All is well-ish.
2021
September 10, 2021: I’m finally live with the most current version of Divi. Yeah, there are some problems. Come on Elegant Themes!
July 23, 2021: Menu on individual blog posts wasn’t working. Fixed. ✅
March 31, 2021: Blog posts and podcasts weren’t appearing. Damn plug-in issue. Fixed. Hat tip: Dan Keldsen.
January 15, 2021: Ajax search in the site menu is currently broken. I’m reverting to the old search until the developer updates the plugin.
January 15, 2021: Menu should be fine now on any browser and on any device.
January 14, 2021: Menu isn’t working on certain browsers. I’m on it.
2020
August 28, 2020: Some of my sticky call-to-action buttons were causing problems. I’m looking into the issue. Issue now resolved.
2019
November 7, 2019: Menu issues were plaguing my site. All better now. @genoq rocks.
March 20, 2019: My site should be running much faster now. Bye bye Font Awesome.
January 31, 2019: Funky button issue on home page on iPad. Fixed.
2018
May 7, 2018: Divi caused an issue with my contact forms not working. Temp fix applied.
2017
2016
2015
August 22, 2015: The site is loading slower than normal. Most likely, this stems from possible plug-in conflicts with WordPress 4.3. Resolution pending.
March 18, 2015: Date issue for events is fixed; they are now showing up with the event date, not the date on which I published the event.
January 23, 2015: Tab issue appears to finally be fixed. Superfluous carriages kept appearing, driving me crazy.
2014
November 27, 2014: Minor tweaks, including fixed links to some of the book pages.
November 3, 2014: I had a few things miscoded like the The Next Wave of Technologies book page related posts. I also fixed a few misplaced carriages. These little buggers are pesky. They keep reappearing. Divi knows that this is an issue and evidently is working on a fix.
October 31, 2014: Event videos have been fixed. There was some type of strange Vimeo short code conflict with either a plugin or the theme. I had to replace all videos. Thank heavens for TextExpander.
October 22, 2014: New site is live. There were a few minor images issues but all seems to be well. There are a few minor formatting issues that will be fixed in the next day or so.
September 10, 2014: Posts from www.theageoftheplatform.com have now been ported over. There may be a few lingering image and URL issues. 
September 3, 2014: Site search was broken; it’s fixed now.
June 21, 2014: Navigation menu issue appears to be solved. This one was very tricky and probably plugin-related.
June 9, 2014: Navigation menu has been acting strange; sidebar is not appearing on the side. Looking into this.
February 6, 2014: I rolled back the site a few weeks to try to isolate the issue. Everything appears to be back to normal. Posts were briefly deleted.
February 3, 2014: There are some bizarre CSS issues, perhaps stemming from a plug-in. The iPad version is also broken. It might be an iOS 7.0.4 issue. I’m on it.
2013
June 26, 2013, 6:00 pm: All better.
June 26, 2013, 12:00 pm: Some YouTube videos in posts aren’t appearing correctly. There’s an issue with the responsive video plug-in. I’m working with my developer on the issue. There’s also an issue with the mobile site because of a WP Engine/Zerigo issue.
