Resolved: Rating Error

We’ve resolved the Rating System error noted in the prior entry. During “safe mode” retro-testing it was determined the issue was with a third party extension in Firefox. I’m not sure which one, but if you have it installed you can use safe mode instead when browsing the site until they resolve how caching works. I suspect it may be the “FasterFox” plug in which is still under experimental status. Majority of viewers will be unaffected though. The DF.com Code Info page has been updated to reflect this.

df.com v10 Milestone – Release Candidate 1

I’ve been rather busy toiling away on the site (as if you couldn’t tell). Some recent add on’s and updates to the site are:

  • Implemented Star Rating/Yeah or Nay system for posts.
  • New caching engine on the site improving load times significantly.
  • Added over 100 posts into the blog going back to 2000.
  • Fixed broken legacy links using redirects.
  • Cleaned up navigation menu.

Overall we’re about 99 (if not 100) percent operational at this point and with that in mind I’d like to announce we are up to Release Candidate 1. In geek speak, that mean we’re about revision away from the final site. It’s been a lot of work, but as you see it’s starting to pay off.

Once the final new v11 df.com site is in place we’re going to group up on this end and start working on some new things– new Pirate Radio, new artwork, new content, and new music. Plus a few other surprises I’m sure you’ll enjoy. As always, thanks for checking in and be sure to check back to keep up on what we’re up to.
