One moment, please…

Monday, January 8th, 2007

Am attempting to determine why the “comments” function is misbehaving. Am going to do some quick experimenting which will completely discombobulate the appearance of this site for a few moments if you’re happening to visit while I’m troubleshooting…

UPDATE: Many, many hours later. It is seeming to me that the comments function may have disappeared when I upgraded WordPress from 2.0 to 2.02 in late summer or early fall.

The newer version may have some imcompatibility with my design (known as a “theme” in WordPress speak). I haven’t found where the possible imncompatibility lies but have proven that the problem is not with WordPress itself. ‘Comments’ works and all the old comments are there when I switch to WordPress’s highly functional but not so pretty default “Kubrick” theme. Going to continue slogging away at this.

It is also possible that I corrupted some code somewhere while validating the site in October.

TUESDAY UPDATE: About 8 hours into this I’m as puzzled as I was at the start. Haven’t located the source of the problem. I have a request in at the WordPress support forum and am hoping someone there may spot what it is I need to fix. So far no takers.

Some experts noted that this was a “good thing” in that coaching maintained its connection with its grass roots origins.

* Too few coaches are actually able to make a living as coaches. More coaches are leaving the field after finding that (more…)
