what in the bloody hell
Strange things have been happening lately on this blog. Sometimes the footer (sudoku puzzle, comic strips) doesn't show up. Sometimes there is only a partial sidebar. Sometimes the sidebar doesn't display at all. This started happening about a week or so ago. Have other Blogspot blogs been experiencing similar problems? Has Google AdSense changed their scripts completely? Has a coronal mass ejection fried Blogger's servers? Do I ask enough stupid questions?
I hadn't made any changes to the blog template before these weird problems started showing up; I did notice that the sudoku website had changed their scripts slightly, and I fixed that today. However, even with that fix in place I am getting intermittent errors in the display of the blog. It wouldn't be so bad if the errors were consistent, but there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it; one minute the blog looks fine, and ten minutes later it is missing half the content. What gives?
Update: Apparently the original problem occurred when the sudoku puzzle page changed their script. Then when I installed the fix to that, Blogger stalled while it was halfway through publishing the new template. I am considering switching over to Blogger Beta to get around this, but I've seen some horror stories about losing all the html in the template. I'll keep fighting with it for now, and then I may bite the bullet and go beta.
more bizarreness: I finally managed to republish the entire blog, but there are still weird things going on. I have viewed the source code for the main page, and sometimes the source code suddenly ends in the middle of the comic strips, sometimes it ends in the middle of the buttons in the sidebar, sometimes it ends in other random spots... and where the source code ends changes at random, without my having made any changes at all to the blog template. If I click on an individual post, I can see the cartoons and the whole sidebar - sometimes. This is starting to really freak me out.
