I have such a bad habit of writing posts but then I do not publish my posts. It might have seemed like this blog went dark and I stopped writing. What actually happened was I sucked at feeling ready to […]

Not writer’s block in the group Matthew D. Brown (Author): 6 years, 8 months ago
I would like to blame writer’s block for my lack of productivity. It would be so easy. That is not the case though.
Mostly, I think I’ve just been distracted.
What am I distracted by?
Some of the things […]

Logging out problems in the forum Help and Support 6 years, 9 months ago
This probably happens when I make updates. I think I’ve mostly got this particularly annoying bug under control now. Let me know if it crops back up.

Bug Report: Docs: "Create Doc" does not appear to work from groups in the forum Help and Support 6 years, 9 months ago
I think this may be another bug that will have been solved by the move to the new template system. As soon as I have run some tests and am 100% happy that it all works, I will re-add this feature to the community.
I should warn you that as exactly no one has asked about it in quite some time, I am treating this as a low priority issue. If you…Read more

This bug is the bane of my life.
It is not your fault – it means I made a change to something while you were logged in. It will go away by itself or you can flush your browser cache if you know how to make it stop now.
I’ll flush the site cache to speed things along. If the site seems sluggish for a few minutes this is why.

Should the directory be empty? in the forum Help and Support 6 years, 9 months ago
No, no it should not.
It looks like I applied an update and set free listings to expire which was foolish as we only have free listings. I’ve renewed them all and set free listings to run forever.
Thanks for reporting the bug.

I hit refresh a lot and that seems to fix it.

Burty Burtman replied to the topic Any advice for overcoming tiredness in order to write? in the forum General Chat 6 years, 9 months ago
Take some time off. Chill out, watch some Netflix and engage in a little self care.
Burn out will only get worse until you allow yourself some downtime.
