« Templar: Now you KNOW I'm writing fiction. | Main | Pre-Order Update, and New ComicSpace Dump! »

Yeah, I know it's broken.

The Templar, Arizona site's misbehaving, and I know it is. Trying to get it back to normal as we speak.

The main problem seems to be the WYSIWYG editor WCN recently installed behind-the-scenes. It hates MAP and IFRAME tags, both of which I need. I hadn't edited any of the relevant fields for a while, so I never knew this was a problem until recently. When I tried to add some totally unrelated link buttons and saved the fields under the new system, the whole thing fell in on me and killed the blog feed and Project Wonderful ads.

Don't kick my ass, I'm doing what I can.

EDIT: Okay, some ghetto-fabulous tweaks and we're back in business. Every other page on the site now officially looks awful, because I stuck the code in the advertising fields, which are the only fields left that will take raw HTML without editing it. Playing with Dolls and Sparkneedle are hideous, but whatever. It's good enough until Joey can get back to me.

But hey, highlight of the mishap: DIRT CHEAP PROJECT WONDERFUL ADS. Click and buy for low, low prices!

- Go to your WCN Control Panel.

- Click "Subscriptions, Merchandise, and Advertising Sales."

- Under "Advertising Sales Options," click "Upload Third-Party Ad Code (Google Adsense, etc)."

You'll be presented with a page with four text fields that'll take raw HTML. They're for your left-hand, right-hand, top, and bottom advertising spaces, which flank your comic on all sides. I've stuck just about everything in my Bottom Ad Slot. Blog, Google ads, OhNoRobot Code, everything.
