Re: Blogging for Admissions

Hi, Darren,
How dare you disparage the know-how of a Creighton student. The nerve!

Except that you’re probably right. I’ll delete the blogs and get in touch with him.

Re: the Faces profiles (admissions.creighton.edu/faces)
Thanks. Bryon helped me with the buttons. I have a question, though. I was looking at the site on IE 6 and noticed that we have some very strange (to me) behavior with the .png that we’re using for their quotes in the middle of the pages and the “Faces of Creighton Logo” in the ContentPane4 area. I created those images without the blue backgrounds that they are displaying in IE6. Why would they show up like that?

Also, I’ve noticed that the sidemenu is also being bumped down to the bottom on some of these pages. Do you know why? It’s also happening on the undergraduate home page.

Lastly, how is that Security Warning issue coming along?
Do you know when we might be able to see this resolved?

I can’t talk about the Articles tomorrow. It’s the first day of class and things have been busy enough as it is. We’ll talk soon, though.
Yours,
Christian

If I may offer an opinion, it appears that perhaps this individual accidentally created three new blogs instead of updating a single blog. What he describes as being unavailable could be from some unusual combination of clicking a back button/refresh, etc.  We may simply need to just delete the two copies and then he can move forward with just the one.
 
Otherwise, we should get on the phone with the student and recreate what was done in order to effectively troubleshoot in all likelihood. Thoughts?
 
Bryon-If the team comes up with any additional ideas, please share.
 
Christian-I really like the new navigation buttons and the new profiles you have posted on your AG site.  Great work.  Things are looking top notch!  Also, I can do a discussion of the Articles module tomorrow if you like.  Sorry for the previous tie ups on my end.
 
Darren

Hi Christian,
 
I’ll look into this. I’ve never seen this before. I’ll ask the rest of the team and developers to see if they know of a cause.
 
Thanks,

Hi, Bryon,
Do you know why this might be?

Christian,

I just tried posting my blog and when I tried posting it, the page came up and said new blog is unavailable.  And about 10 minutes later I tried to check and it had my blog posted 3 times, so I was wondering what the problem might be.

Thanks,
Liam
