Site Upgrade

A note to SSP readers: We underwent an upgrade last night, with various tweaks and goodies installed into the Soapblox platform.  To see the full changes, you may have to do a “hard refresh” (Ctl + F5 on most browsers).

With the upgrade, AJAX-powered comments are back.  (In other words, posting a new comment will be similar to your usual DailyKos experience.) Please let us know if you notice any glitches; we had to disable AJAX a few months ago after some users had problems posting particularly long comments.  Hopefully those wrinkles have now been ironed out fully.  AJAX seems to be working fine, but it doesn’t appear to actually be part of the upgrade.  I’m going to turn it off as a precaution.

If you have a moment, please feel free to make test comments in this diary.  We want to make sure that all the code is up to snuff.  So go crazy — links, blockquotes, alt codes, long replies, short replies, you name it.  Just in case there are any glitches, we’d like to identify them immediately.

Thanks, guys!

  1. when I jump into a comment section with new stories, the new now appears as black text rather than easy to identify red. Not sure if this is bug or not, but I am not a fan.

    I’m Running Safari 3 in Mac OSX Leopard.

  2. wasn’t upgrade in this one.  But you do have the most recent version of it.  It should work in IE, FireFox, Safari, and Opera.

    Feel free to use it!
