We’re back in business baby!

As it turns out, it was my Social Bookmarks plugin that did the dirty deed! Apparently it uses the scriptalicious library which is known to interfere with jquery.

I installed that just one day before installing the other 2 plugins I mentioned. After hearing this, I did go back over the comments in between and noticed only a couple had CL links attached.

I suppose it started failing immediately and ended completely around the time the other two were installed. Oops, but a good assumption at the time.

I’m not sad the other two are gone though, they were giving me issues on their own as well.

Now I have to look for another social icon plugin that does not use either scriptalicious or effects.js.

Any ideas? Ah well, I’m just happy as a clam to have my comment baby back! (I know you are too )

Hello everyone,

By now some of you have begun to notice that my CommentLuv plugin is out of action. I’m sorry, I was really hoping to have it working before too long.

This is also why I haven’t responded to comments in the past day or so, which I’m going to get to right after this post; here’s what I think happened…

I installed one plugin that was meant to clearly show backlinks of what blogs were linking to what post within this blog.

Very cool I thought as it is much clearer then looking at trackbacks. I also installed a 2nd companion plugin who’s sole purpose is to help the first plugin work.

As far as I can tell, one or both of these did a serious screw job on my inner workings and took out CommentLuv…..so far I don’t see any other problems, which I suppose is a really good thing.

Well, there’s not much to add to that, except to ask several followers - happy now? I am!

Also to any other 4yo techies - get this plugin, oh my god is it super simple and works like a charm!

I have mine set to back-up once daily, as I figured every hour was a little TOO paranoid LOL.

In conclusion to what’s probably my shortest post ever, I ask…Do you back-up your blog? What do you use and how often do you use it?

Never stop pushing forward!

In my ever vigilant effort to make a clean looking AND user-friendly Blog for everyone here, I am trying one more plugin to try and get the combination of post snippets on-site, while having full feeds go through the feed.

if you recall, I first attempted the Full Feed plugin and it was a disaster. I then thought it would just be best to change the look of the Blog a bit, and publish full posts.

Neither you nor I liked that very much.

When suddenly…..on one of my blog commenting escapades I ran across Colin King, a true geek :-). A great guy, a real swell fella; seriously.

UGH! Broken links everywhere. Is there anything more annoying to a site owner?!?!? Not only that, but you can easily lose business; perhaps a LOT of business depending on the circumstances.

If it’s a blog you can very easily lose readers if they find too many broken, non working links. Reader loss could quite possibly mean revenue loss, both in the present AND future…most will never return.

Think especially of new readers full of hope, glee and anticipation in finding a new blog in their niche of choice…what a let down. Not to mention how unprofessional it looks, especially if it’s more then 1 or 2 links.

You also have to be aware of the SEO ramifications that can occur due to too many broken links. Search engines, especially Google will not appreciate it…not one bit. Links, incoming outgoing and internal are the backbone of Google ranking.
