Work in Progress

Welcome to Phase 1 of what will eventually be SharperIron 2014!

The site has moved to a new version of the underlying content system. While the potential for site improvements is much increased by the move, the change necessitates a good bit rebuilding.

What works

  • Obviously, the Front Page article and Filings sections are mostly up and running.
  • In addition, you should be able to log on (or register), post comments, start discussions in the Forum, etc.

What doesn’t work

  • Foundry and Blogroll are still in the oven
  • The New Posts page is likewise in progress
  • Much of the forum styling isn’t done yet. So links aren’t always where we’d like them to be, labeled clearly, etc.
  • Lots of little stuff.

Thanks for your patience. Lord willing, we’ll return to regularly scheduled front page articles tomorrow, and various improvements and will be appearing over the next week or so. Most of these do not require any site downtime, so they’ll mostly just start showing up. We’ll post some announcements as major features such as Blogroll, etc. come back online.

Discussion

Is there going to be a “Mark all as read” option? Or have not found it yet?

Like the idea, though

The left column used to list all the posts that a user had posted comments. Will that be returning?

OK, I found it on my user profile page. Is there no room for it on the ‘new posts’ page where it used to be?

Definitely. It’ll be appearing there again shortly.

Edit: done. You should see it in the 2nd sidebar now.

The “Books Available for Review” list is now back online.

How do I point to a single post in a thread?

Used to be that each post in a thread was numbered (top right corner of the post) and you could copy/paste the link to that single post.

Click on the post title - in your case, “referencing posts”. That will give you the specific URL for that comment.

"Our task today is to tell people — who no longer know what sin is...no longer see themselves as sinners, and no longer have room for these categories — that Christ died for sins of which they do not think they’re guilty." - David Wells

FWIW, I’m hoping to get a clearly labeled “permalink” back on posts eventually. But at present, yes, the post title is the same thing
