About that “Not reviewed” category (and an update to the blog)
Our blog was the last period a bit quiet and what was written was posted as private (so only visible to registered members with proper permissions). But I am glad that it is once again more active, also for public articles (readable by all). Both Marissa as Miranda told me that they are working on…
Private articles
Now already for some time there are many private articles posted here on our weblog and that is okay. One of the purposes of our weblog is to share thoughts and opinions privately between the authors. And I am very happy with what I see and read. It shows the friendship and trust between us….
Upgraded PHP to version 7.3
This morning I got a message from Jennifer telling me that the weblog was extremely slow. Thank you for informing me Jennifer. And yes, the site was indeed responding very slowly.

The most important change of this new version is that there is a complete new editor for writing the articles added.This new “Gutenberg Editor” is block orientated and is more or…
Issue with WP Google Maps
Yesterday Marissa called me to tell me that she had problems with adding new locations to the map we have have for “Cafés & Dinners”. I just had a look at it and she is right. It is not possible at the moment to add new locations. The problem is caused by changes Google did…
Okay there was still one rotten index
As one of the authors tried to post something a little back, WordPress (the software I use for this weblog) crashed. It took me some time to figure out what was causing this. But I found out, there was still one index of a table that was corrupt. I repaired it manually and now all…
