martian / Website (4.6.06 12:48) this is strange, I cant view my own blog, don't have the right password apparently, my favourites are all gone, half of it is written in german or french, like you said... It took alot of getting used to when the platform changed the first time, but this time it just seems inpenetrable!

Kevling / Website (4.6.06 15:54) Martian - there's a random password set to prevent people viewing your blog until you're ready for them to see it. Apparently, it's to give you chance to get rid of any private entries, seeing as you can't have them in this wonderful new platform...

Booger / Website (4.6.06 17:49) Can you explain that favourites trick a bit more Kev? In idiot proof terms if poss...

Katja / Website (4.6.06 19:38) Once it's all settled down around here I think it will be fine. Don't give up yet, Kevling *sniff*

Kevling / Website (4.6.06 19:56) Booger, I copied all my favourites into a post before "old" 20Six died... I then opened up that entry in 'edit' mode, changed the view to HTML mode, highlighted everything and copied it. Then in the Administration -> Layout -> Pro you have three sections of your layout that you can customise. From memory, I think they are Header (i.e. the top of your page), Above Sidebar (i.e. the top of the side column that currently has your links and categories), and Below Sidebar (i.e. the bottom of that same side column). For mine, I selected the Bottom one, and then just pasted the code I'd just copied in there, then click Refresh Data. If all works well, your old 20Six favourites list will now show at the bottom of your side-bar. Of course, to add to this list you will need to manually edit the HTML code, but it's a quick way of getting your old favourites list back. I had to tamper with mine because it had lots of broken image links, displayed an odd font size, and was centred, but a little tinkering later and all is well. Ish. Hope that makes sense. Katja - yeah, it seems to be steadier now than it was this morning. The loss of comment tracking is a real pain though. I know they email you when comments have been posted, but I imagine the number of emails flying around will soon become unmanageable...
