Everyone,

We have a tricky little bug in our blog editing function right now. Basically, if you post a blog and assign it to the 'for professionals' and 'for consumer' categories, then try to come back and edit the post, those check marks are stripped off the post. 

In addition, you are unable to change the groups to which your post gets submitted. So if you put it in one group (or five) then try to come back and add additional groups or change the existing groups, you will get (or have gotten) an error message. 

For those that have been featured, if you attempt to edit a featured post, it will strip your post of the feature. 

There is also a bug in uploading pictures to Localism that we have fixed on the staging server and will be releasing the fix on tonight.  

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience and we are working on the issues and hope to have a build up tonight that will remedy these. So if you were thinking about editing your post, maybe you should go watch Teresa and Ardell talk about how they use their blog to generate great clients. It's the featured video when you are logged in on the home page right now. It's a little lengthy but it gives you an awesome idea of the potential power of your blog :-)  

(hmmm.......is that all of them I know about right now? I think so..........)

Bob

Hi Rich - FINALLY, I now know this isn't just me!  I've been working on a post, trying to put it in the right category and groups for the last day and a half, and kept getting that error message.  Ooh, I was frustrated, and now I see it's an AR 'bug'....  ;-) 

Thanks for working to get it fixed!

The only other bug I know of, has always been this way. When trying to erase parts of a word or sentence, we usually can't. If I highlight a line to delete, instead I highlight and insert a period, then I can delete the period. It's kind of annoying.

You should have titled your post, "THE CASE OF THE MISSING STAR".  Thanks for letting everybody know what's happening.

DEAR Friend in the Lord,
 
Please use this money as a compensation for you as  to help the churches and less privileged.
Greetings to you and your family in the name of God.
In my search for a reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through prayers and painstaking efforts I have decided to Compensate  you  in carrying out my last wishes. My name is Mrs. Doris Apollo   I'm a 65 years old woman and from lONDON UK. I was a merchant and owned two businesses in London and  Dubai.
I was also married with two children.
My husband and two children died in a car accident six years ago. Before this happened, my business and concern for making money was all I live for,I never really cared about other values in life. But since the loss of my family, I have found a new desire to assist helpless families.
I have been helping orphans in phanage/motherless homes. I have also donated some money for humanitarian needs in Europe and  Africa , Namely  Sudan, South Africa, Cameroon, Brazil, Spain, Austria, Germany and some Asian countries.
Only recently I saw on television the colossal loss of properties and livelihood people in Canberra, Australia through fire.
I was moving with great pity and compassion that I decided to make this contribution on assisting people over there,I am sending this compensation amount of US 500.000.00(Five Hundred  Thousand   United States Dollars) to you through My Pastor In Africa  Pastor  MARTHIN FoFONA to send it to you as soon as you have contacted him.
Contact My Pastor Now For your Compensation on his contact infomations

Rev.marthin fofona
Assistance Pastor
Christ The Rock Ministry
Abidjan Republic Of Cote D' Ivoire.
Email:marthin.fofona@yahoo.com
MY PRIVATE EMAIL;dorisapollo01@yahoo.co.jp
Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for oesophagi cancer.I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only few months to live.
It is my last wish to see this Distributed to you as to help victims less previlaged and other charity organization.
Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the agony entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them.
Please, I beg you in the name of God to use this compensation to help yourself and poor onces arround you and distributes it accordingly.
Use your judgment to distribute the money.
Regards
