Bugs and site status
We should probably have a page (and comments) for bug reports and site status info; viola, here it is. Please feel free to report bugs below.

Sit tight, temporarily-disruptive changes are afoot on the site that hosts Nevada County Voices, such that the page update script isn’t running. Hopefully it’ll be straightened out soon….

It’s working again, or should be…

…Isn’t. But will be again, by 1:30p?

Sierra Cinemas film-scraping had broken; fixed it.

The server’s been offline at least a couple times today; not sure if it’s my scripts or something else. I’ve got a support request in, asking; hopefully the reliability will return to its former stellar state.

Mon a.m. (and perhaps Sunday) – the aggregator script was intolerant of something in The Union’s news feed, the outcome being that TU’s news didn’t show up. I have fixed the script.

The NCVoices weather info looks screwy sometimes – apparently because the Natl Weather Service page that we read from seems periodically to contain the wrong content. I’ll try to track this down.
And I have an email in, to find out what’s (not) up with the GV PM2.5 monitor; the Sac PM2.5 page hasn’t been including ours because it (ours) has had problems.

I’d been using the wrong (old) URLs for Tom McClintock’s blog and feed; updated the script to use correct new URLs.

Fixed the “weird weather parsing” problem once and for all (I hope), by getting the “mobile” version of the page, instead of the fuller service version. But there’s a downside to this, namely the mobile version doesn’t provide wind info.

“Local fire” section issues -
NCVoices has a “local fires” section, during fire season; I’d like to include The Union’s fire blog there, but they mostly post about nonlocal fires. So I’ll try moving the posts from their fireblog over to the “Union opinion/blogs” section, but still leave a link to their blog up in the “local fires” section, to make it easy for you to check.
If you’d like The Union to have a local-only fire blog, please let them know.

My newest post at farstars has been up 40 minutes or so, still not showing on NCVoices.us. Are you on a longer delay now? Use to take 5 to 10 minutes max.

Hi Doug – the page is supposed to update once per hour, starting about 20 minutes in; so the first thing to do if you’re wondering if yours got overlooked is to check the page’s “last updated” time, at top center of the page.
(and perhaps I should make the time a little more conspicuous…)

(And it’s always been an hour, I think; I guess you’ve just been lucky, before.)

Sorry; being hacked by some cretinous script; trying to figure it out. Meanwhile, if you’re using NoScript you might consider disabling scripting on the site, just to be safe.
