Good morning everyone!
This morning, I’m updating WordPress and a host of plugins and doing a bit of tweaking and site maintenance. This is in preparation for updating the theme Monday, and then releasing some new stuff once we’ve got a stable platform.
That said, I’m just in the office this morning, so I won’t be tackling any other issues, but feel free to mention them in this thread and I’ll check in later.
Next week I hope to publicly launch our Issues tracker, as well as an all-new submission form for On the Road, as well as a redone Contact a Front Pager form. There are some neat things coming soon such as a localized version of the Pie filter that runs in your browser, couple with one or more comment improvements. I am also planning on a few architectural changes to speed up the site and to reduce the morning slowdown (which is from the daily backup). Once those are in place, I’ll replace the current site search with a much better one. More on that soon.
Open thread y’all
