Hi all, Firstly, I apologise if you've written to me requesting a new diary since I closed off the new user creation facility – I haven't created any new diaries as I've been overrun with school work and 3 babies under 2 years old 🙂 Feeble excuse but I'm sticking to it. The positive…
For some time now people have been struggling with inputing their entries onto DD – at least it seems that those who were using the HTML editor and IE8 were having issues. I think there was an incompatibility with the old HTML editor which for some reason was only showing for users of IE8. Unfortunately…
A database query managed to pull the whole site over, resulting in the need to close down and restart the database. Unfortunately when it came back up it decided to overwrite its replication logs from the beginning and as such would have destroyed the backup database replication. I’ve taken a snapshot of the database now…
If you’ve got friends at DearDiary who you’d like to buy a Christmas present for, check out the Plus Account Gift Voucher The system won’t presently tell the recipient of your generosity (i.e. its an anonymous system at present) but of course there’s nothing stopping you from telling them who it’s a from. I may…
I’ve presently removed ALL public images from the system and am in the process of re-approving the reasonably useful ones. Over the last 4 years we’ve gathered a huge amount (somewhere around 32,000) images and a lot of them just don’t work well as backgrounds or buttons and such like. So there’s now going to…
As a result of the troubles we have encountered in recent months, the terms and conditions have been updated. In line with the Muppets On The Site entry posted in May, and after some bizzarre but rather unfortunate incidents that have taken place after that, a vote was taken on how abuse of the system…
Really thanks for your hard working. I am very happy to get my diary ‘reborn’!!!
I never give up for this Deardiary, it is brilliant.
I have recently started using my rss feed reader in Firefox and the thing works great.
Glad you mentioned it to the group as I was thinking the same thing the other day!

I’ve been on Comcast.net for months and have never had a problem until you took the server down this last time. I’ve got my mail settings so that suspected SPAM goes into a folder that I can look at seperately and nothing is coming through there, either, from DD so I’m not sure that comcast is the problem. I’m going to go in to my diary and change the notify addy back to my old ISP just for giggles to see if it forwards. I’m aware that there can be security risks with RSS feeds so I’m not eager to jump on that bandwagon.
I’ll let you know if I get forwards from my old ISP. That might give you a clue one way or the other as to what’s going on.
Thanks for all your hard work. I know we can be a cranky and demanding bunch 😉

Steve,
Referring to my last comment: I just changed my e-mail and I’m getting notifies but I’m not sure why it took Comcast months to block them and why it coincided with your taking the server down this last time. I’ll bang my head against a brick wall and call Comcast next week because, as I’ve stated, the notifies should have gone to my SPAM folder not just been lost in space *rolls eyes*.
