Hi Gil,

You guys are fantastic. Thank you for all your hard work.

Are the connections to Delicious and Stumble Upon also affected by the Amazon problems?

What about disappearing pictures?

I am no longer getting email messages even though I am subscribed to topics on Squidu. Is this also related?

Thanks for all the hard work, guys!! I know it's always exhausting having to cut down multiple unexpected hydra (Is that singular or plural? Man, I'm pedantic!) on a huge project.

Am trying to not be freaked out by the lensrank update. Had 10 WIPs I created yesterday that jumped up to the 60,000s and newly published lenses that didn't make it out of WIP. Not to mention that my top lens dropped hard. I want to think something's still wrong, but maybe not. :-( Will just continue working and be patient. I have faith it'll shake out eventually.

Hi Gil, Thanks for all the hard work and dedication you have put into this.  I am noticing that the "Join My Fan Club" links are not showing up out here on the forum when you click on a Squidoo Lens Master link?

Is it possible you're already a fan of that person?

Gil, thanks for keeping us updated.

1.  My amazon problems and loss of products appears to have been fixed, so that is great!

2. Not sure if this is considered a big problem or even if it has anything to do with the update, but after yesterdays royalties update, I lost $17.94 in royalies across nine of my lenses.  I believe these are eBay sales, not amazon.  What is really odd, is the figures that are currently displayed on those particular lenses are the exact figures from a day or so ago.  I can send a bug report in with exact lenses and amounts if you need me to.   Let me know if I should do that.

Thanks again,
Janet~

Hi Gil,

Delicious no longer has any results. I put in a bug report.

Stumble Upon seems to work until I hit enter and then I get a blank page. I assume you would normally get a confirmation.

I am not receiving emails from Squidu even though I have subscribed so that is why it has taken me so long to answer your above message.

Some emails from Squidoo telling me that I have been plexed are blank. Others are fine.

I just tried leaving comments and I am still having problems. If I refresh several times it will finally go through.

Keep up the great work, Gil, I'm sure all will be well soon.

Evelyn

I don't think so because One they are newbees who just signed up, and two if you are a member of their fan club then the "Quit this fan club" link is also missing. 

One way or another something is fishey, I think!  When I get back I will completely reboot my machine and make sure it isn't on my end. 

Hi Gil ( & Blake),

Thanks for giving upwhat was likely  to have been a weekend off after a long week due to the server migration, hope you didn't have too much planned that can be done at another time!

The one thing I noticed on one lens I had problems with earlier in the week, every module that seemed to rely on some form of rss or other had it's data wiped. The only thing remaining was the text I had inputted in  the intro to the module. I did submit a bug report, but have since gone and filled in the blanks.

This happened on RSS modules and poll modules, but it sounds like it may have happened on a few more modules that use some type of data feed too. Perhaps too vague a description to go on, but I thought it maybe worth mentioning as sometimes when bug hunting any hint or info can  help narrow the search. Just for reference it was bug report 22110, though I don't require any action on this lens now as have edited and republished.

Thanks Again!

Hi Gil,

I just found another problem.

I was just trying to update www.squidoo.com/bluebirds and found that the links in the links lenses are multiplying.

If I open up the module to edit it the link will have multiplied 3 times and if I try again it will multiply 6 times.

I don't dare publish.

I didn't see this thread before. I had already started a thread about this in "help please" section. I didn't think to look for a thread about it here. oh well. Here's a copy of the post I made over there...



Okay, I've never had this happen before and it won't stop.

I just started a new lens, and everything was going along okay, until I published it.  Two modules are duplicating themselves over and over and over and over again! The text list module and the link list module.

On the text list module there are 4 items listed on the list, but when you view the published version of the page, there are 92 items on the list! Each of the 4 items on the list are duplicated 23 times!

The link list module is doing the same thing. It should have 3 items on the list, but instead shows 69 items, again, each item is listed 23 times each!

OMG! What it happening? I tried removing the extra items on the list, but every time I take one off, 4 more of the same one instantly appear in it's place!

Has this happened to anyone else? Should I just remove the modules entirely and start over again?

here is the lens in question: http://www.squidoo.com/JoyInLife


PS

I tried to send a bug report about this, but I still can't send anything that requires a security code (comments, bug reports, ect) because every time I hit send it comes back telling me I entered the wrong security code.

oh... forgot to mention... my mom said that on her dashboard, when she tried to approve comments, that all the buttons (approve/deny/ban) are gone, and so she can't approve comments anymore. She said she sent a bug report about it.

Security words are still broken for me. I've tried it in both Safari and Firefox and it just keeps kicking me back to "wrong word".

The "duplicating links" bug is fixed and I'm now working to delete the extras that were created. Sorry!

Working on the others as soon as possible.

Ok, I can still veiw Squidoo on Opera, but not on FireFox. Panic subsiding now.

Edit: Ignore my previous outburst. I dumped cookies and cache and now squidoo is loading in Firefox again.

Gil, thanks for all your hard work. I'm sure you guys will get it all fixed soon.
