Transition Drama(Cont.): All Gallery Comments On Story Page

First of all, thanks to all of you for your continued patience & support as we slowly transition into our new home. Again, I know some of you are having withdrawals, but join WordPress & you’ll see the true benefits of the platform. You can track all your comments, replies & even start your own blog! It’s definitely a win/win.

Comments From Individual Photos Pushed To Story Page
As promised, our kind developer has coded in a nifty little thing that forces all comments left on gallery photo pages to appear on the story page so that nothing gets missed or overlooked. These comments will look something like this:

Clicking on the “From Photo Gallery” text will take you to the photo that’s referenced in the comment. While we can just dump the comments on individual photos very easily, we figured they’re worth having since some people have very specific comments that make sense only for a particular photo.

Tracking Comments & Replies
This goes back to the whole joining WordPress thing w/ a quick sleeper account that will allow for notifications & much more. Notifications appear in a little window at the top right corner. Click the comment bubble & you’ll see this box appear:

It’s definitely not a bad tool if you leave a lot of comments on a large number of posts. Plus, there are countless of other WP blogs that you can now follow with ease!

Mobile Version
Currently we’re tweaking the mobile version of the site, but you’re welcome to load the full version of the site on your smartphone until we kill all the bugs. I saw a couple comments linked to this issue, so that’s why I’m bringing it up.

Aside from that, we’d like to thank all of you bastards who’re giving us a second chance. We won’t disappoint.

Alright Moe, maybe the changes don't completely suck. I'm back.

According to a lot of peeps, just by having this site, we kinda already put a bullet in it...

Dude, if that's what you want...then just put a bullet in the damn thing.

Take it out behind the shed, Old Yeller style...and do what you gotta do.

If this latest change doesn't work, we'll die off (kind of hoping for that) so that we can finally find something else to do... ha.

thanks for all the support.

Too complicated?

It's what separated this site from the all the others. It's what made this site unique. It's what made people stick around, despite the bullshit drama.

Now you're just what you said: a run of the mill gossip site.

Thanks for the tip.

Nobody is forcing anybody to stay. When we started we didn't have profiles, guestbooks, logins and private messaging, so we're just returning to the basics. All the other stuff makes things too complicated. We're not Facebook, but rather some run of the mill celebrity humor site.

We'll do what we've always done without having to worry about all the maintenance bullshit that takes all the fun out of the job.

So the comment notification thingy doesn't link back to the site? Or it does? I'm confused.

ya, it's still very buggy.

We'll get it figured out, so no worries.

I'm used to everything now, everything's ok. Except that there isn't the ranking of comments rocked/hated/dirty like there was before. Was nice to see the total scores.

the dude with the last post here has it that the name of the comment auto updates with the name of the last person to post in this thread

When i came in here the post said from bryanzee, now it has my name.

Moe, when are we going back to the old site without trolls.

Moe- I like the notification thing from WP......but there is no way still to subscribe to a thread like the old site. With the WP thing all you get is notifications if someone replied to your comment.....not to new posts in a thread,
