First off, let me say that, thanks to yesterday’s technical difficulties, you missed an incredibly delightful Fat Tuesday post. It was not only intelligent and insightful, but there wasn’t even a mention of the weather. Oh well, maybe next year.<\/p>\n
On the odd chance that anybody is interested (or maybe somebody out there is experiencing the same problem and is looking for a solution), here’s what happened…. I was able to add a post, but when I tried to publish it, more or less nothing happened. The post went into “Draft” status and the content was empty. I managed to get some content filled in, but couldn’t get the sucker to post. I even went into the table and edited the status directly. No joy.<\/p>\n
Being too busy playing Need for Speed Rivals, I didn’t have a chance to look at it until this morning, when I saw I was getting this Javascript error:<\/p>\n
window.wp.autosave.local.suspend is not a function<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\nTo make a long story a bit shorter, there’s a WordPress plugin called Jetpack that includes a lot of nifty little things, including a somewhat annoying pre-post proofreader. Turns out there’s some kind of a bug in that (which doesn’t seem to affect all WP installations – and in fact wasn’t a problem here until yesterday. At least, not that I noticed). So, anyway, I turned off Jetpack, and so far so good.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, while I was screwing around with that last night, I managed to bugger up the HTML Quick Tags bar on the comment form. I don’t think the two things are related (the comment thing is an old plugin that probably is long past its useful life), but I have yet to fix it or find a new plugin that works. Until I figure something out, consider this a marvelous opportunity to learn some basic html.<\/p>\n
And when you find yourself thinking “Christ, this is tedious and boring” while you’re trying to add a link or a blockquote or something, imagine having to do that all day long, every day of your life in an airless, windowless dark hole of an office. <\/p>\n
If that doesn’t depress you, nothing will. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
