A Few Bugs Remain After Traveler's Software Updating

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.

Since there is no dedicated forum on NPT, the comments sections are the de facto message board here. I'd think the comments sidebar attracts a lot of people to the discussion.

I would suggest that it doesn't necessarily need to be expanded much more than it is on the front page. However - a link could be provided that might show something like the last 3 dozen (or perhaps a selected number) of the latest comments.

Kurt...

Hadn't realized how much it meant to me until we lost the topic of the comment. I'll be glad to chime in on other topics once we get this fixed, but the reformatting makes me not a happy camper right now.

Haven't lost it, Rick, it's just that upgrades don't always go smoothly. Can't just push a button and have it all fall into place. Topics and names will be back....

I am with everyone else on here about keeping the comments sidebar the way it was.

Yes indeed Kurt - upgrades NEVER go smoothly! I cringe every time we are informed of upgrades to computer systems at work - seems that for every one thing an upgrade "fixes" it breaks about three other things. Slowly the bugs get worked out - things get back to normal - and guess what time that makes it? Time for the next upgrade!

Some comments don't seem to be showing up with articles even though the table of contents on the home page indicates there are comments.

I have you on my Yahoo home page - however, since the update Yahoo does not apparently update the stories - I've tried removing & reinstalling the module, deleted the cookies (solved the Login issue, thanks!!!) but I cannot seem to get an update. MSN does not seem to find you as an add-on & I miss the daily stories waiting for me!!!

William, we've noticed the same thing and are trying to track down the glitch. Thanks for hanging in there with us while we do!
