Folks, as many of you might have noticed, last night's software upgrade left a few bugs scattered around the Traveler.

Support National Parks Traveler

Your support for the National Parks Traveler comes at a time when news organizations are finding it hard, if not impossible, to stay in business. Traveler's work is vital. For nearly two decades we've provided essential coverage of national parks and protected areas. With the Trump administration’s determination to downsize the federal government, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum’s approach to public lands focused on energy exploration, it’s clear the Traveler will have much to cover in the months and years ahead. We know of no other news organization that provides such broad coverage of national parks and protected areas on a daily basis. Your support is greatly appreciated.

I liked the "recent comments" when it included who wrote the comment. I click on them often to read your comments for example. Now I have to look longer or not look at all.

Dave, that's one of the bugs we're rooting out of the system. That said, with a redesign in the works, we're thinking of doing away with the comment sidebar, as it takes up space that could be put to better use. Any thoughts out there? Folks would still see the number of comments attached to an article, they'd just have to read the article to read the comments and see who posted them....

The format of the recent comment bar has been useful and helpful. Would like to see it continue the way it was.

Please keep the recent comments sidebar. It's one of the most useful tools for following what's being actively "discussed".

I read almost all your postings and use the comment sidebar a lot. It would be a pity to lose it. And I preferred the former format, where you could see the article a comment belong to as well as the author of that comment. How else can you see if there are comments to older postings?

Oups - no captchas anymore? This will cost you lots of time to weed through the inevitable spammers comments.

If somebody comments on an older story, I would probably never go back to read newly added comments if it were not for the side bar. I think it is an important feature that I hope you keep. It should include the story it goes with as well.

Whoa now, I use the comment sidebar a lot!
Maybe get rid of that pesky "Friends of the Traveler" sidebar, stick it at the bottom of the page out of the way, and the annoying "Sponsors" sidebar could also join it at the bottom of the page also unless..
Just a word link ("Our Friends & Sponsors") to a page listing all your "friends" and "Sponsors" in that way giving a larger footprint to what is really important ;-]
