GO! Smell our blank sidebar

Posted on July 27th, 2008 by Jim

Hi folks,

Well we’ve ‘failed’ today ourselves following our recent post on the subject and our recent upgrade to Wordpress MU. We stepped in and started playing with the widgets that Deep and the tech guys understand and frankly, we don’t.

So, as you’ll notice ALL our sidebar content has disappeared with the exception of a few recent comments!!! Oooops.

Trying to see the funny side we found the pyramid poster above and we ask you as we re-build our own pyramid to share your fave sidebar widgets with us here - what would you like to see added to the right column of GSTF?

Normal service will be resumed early in the week and feel free to get amongst it at forums.

Cheers and flower growls all round!

    OOPS!!!! I had this sent to me the other day.

    “I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles overcome while trying to succeed”. (Booker T Washington, African-American spokesman).

    Quite true I think.

    I did try and find a quote about playing with things when you don’t know what you’re doing but George Bush wasn’t available for comment.

    You will be happy to know your spam filter still works as poorly as ever. Why did I get spam?

    And free my comments Shallow Deep. You are being such a royal pain somewhere in my sexy body.

    Welcome to flowers Mr / Mrs ‘ This is a dictatorship & The censored’ who appear to be the same person!

    Marvelous.

    Hi,

    I am a new visitor on your website and will atleast like to see categories on your side bar coz its really difficult to find what is there in the website other than these first few articles.

    Regards
    Roshni.

  6. I liked the side bar. I really liked being able to see who made the last comments and on what posts. I liked the lively smellers. :-) The flower smellers list was really long, so I didn’t look at that much.

    I would like a clock with Dubai time…I am forever having to take my PDA out to figure it out. Or maybe, a drop down menu to see the time in different cities and countries. I’d die where you live …with the heat.

          Getting (slightly?) back on thread … yesterday’s Observer (UK newspaper) had news on ‘Cass’ a film outlining the life & times of Cass Pennant. Also, classic ‘88 BBC drama ‘The Firm’ is up for a re-make.

          Thanks for sharing ODB and welcome back!

        • Urban Pagan says:

          cass had a few private screenings last week- was due to go to one in london but was working.

          have a feeling it will be a bit poor

          even funnier however was a group of icf having a go at some ‘columbus crew’ people in the states who threw beer at them. the firm COULD be good however I think the genre is done to death at the moment. I know cardiff have had a film knocking round for years to be made- I also know initially nicholls had some interest in scaLLY the film- but the truth is its done to death as a genre. and worse still on the whole its been done really badly. the firm the only exception.

          I’ll probably wait for cass to go to dvd but I rekcon it will be a dog of a film. typical invincible never been ran stuff. if its like his books (claims of 40 icf holding off 700 everton in a year when they didn’t travel to us for example) expect an epic cliehced hackneyed tale of ‘morals’ pwinciples’ etc etc.

          in other news odb- ale at sometime could be a go-er- leeds carnival?

        • O'DB says:

          UP - when’s the Carnival?

          Hopefully there’ll be loads of those lovable Carnie types about - you know good upstanding community types who aren’t spoiling for a fight & definitely not planning on nicking your wallet/car/baby/[insert material or emotional valuable here]. Will there be a bearded lady? Or a man with 2 heads? Or a lady with 6 breasts?

          Let me know on e-mail (get it off Jim if you haven’t got it).

        • Urban Pagan says:

          odb

          can you mail us at mrfingers73@hotmail.com

          cheers

          p.s- its in a park in leeds aug bank hols

          oldest carnival in the UK- 41st year I think- attracts about 100,000 over two days so smaller than notting hill but I prefer it

        • Gareth says:

          Will they be playing that raggy music and eating jerry chicken?

          Latest average footy & gangland violence film I saw in the mould of Cass Pennant, Bill Gardener, etc was ‘Rise of the footsoldier’ charting a certain Carlton Leach’s rise from ICF hoodlum to almost shot in Rettendon gangster.
          Excrucitating overuse of the ‘Maaaaaapppppeeeeett’ but was funny to watch the one time Eastenders hardman Craig Fairbrass being tough again with his curly mullet
          (only notable scene was the naked hooker in the hospital, would make any red blooded male go phhhhhwwwwwooooaaaarrrr)

    all of the widgets exexpt the one which counts who has been cahting the most…. I look at it and think oh I have been slack… if I dont know then I continue on my merry way…
    thank god the Tour has finished… its 2am here tomorrow normal services will resume and I can get some sleep this 4 hours a night for the past 3 weeks has really knocked me about.. I am almost sane at present and thinking in a normal manner… need sleep to regain my cynical nature…. hmmmmmm…. ;)

  9. Deep says:

    Hi Jim & Everyone,

    I have restored most of the things in the sidebar. I will fix up rest of the things tomorrow.

    Regards,
    Deep

    • Jim & Em says:

      Great stuff Deep and thanks for going the Xtra mile on a Sunday night…

      A few quickie points that need restoring, from memory, in the following order:-

      The ‘Welcome to the community / Post a comment / Get involved / watch out for the thorns.
      Flowers in the Media.
      Lively flower smellers.
      Blog catalog ‘recent visitors’ ‘recent activity’ widgets.
      The NEO visitors board - 1 smell from 1 country etc.
      The founders badges.
      All our blog badges that we’ve been awarded.
      Flowers tag cloud.

      Finally, The GSTF favicon when anyone types in http://www.
      Hope this helps!

  10. With or without side bar, I am coming back for more..

    Egyptian builders!!

    I’d like to see a photo gift of the week banner linking to Fabulous Photo Gifts .co.uk with a 10% reduction for anyone using the special flower smellers code but i can’t figure out how to deduct that amount from the basket total at the moment so i guess we’ll have to wait a while longer. One day!
