Whoops!

On March 14, 2005

So I was upgrading this site from Community Server RC3 to 1.0 tonight. No database changes were needed — just a file copy. No problem, right?

Wrong!

I forgot that I had modified the skin that I’m using to be more like what I wanted. Even worse, I forgot that there was an unmodified version of this skin included in the CS install. So, I overwrote all of my skin changes.

Sigh.

I think I’ve mostly got it back to how it was earlier today, and I’m making my changes in a new skin directory so that I don’t do this again. If something doesn’t look right to you, let me know.

IE Stuff: Open Highlighted URL In New Window

This is something very small that I hacked out for myself a couple years ago. It allows you to select an un-linked URL on a web page, such as “scottisaacs.com”, and easily navigate to it. What you do is highlight the URL that you want to visit, right-click, and select “Open Highlighted Link in New Window”.

This will modify your registry and if you don’t know what that implies, then you probably won’t want to install this.

Use this at your own risk! Here is the ZIP download.
