    Could try writing, certainly. Had some good success with Rocky last year before life went kind of haywire (without the horses of course). Will see if inspiration strikes me! But hopefully not too hard. Flying inspiration could be dangerous. Bombs away? Well, hopefully inspiration doesn’t bomb but sparks instead. Why yes, I am having fun with wordplay here 😀

    Been working on self esteem too. Feeling much better after focusing more on personal care lately 🙂

    The bookstore didn’t have the rest in the series so I’ll check the library. They did have a boxed set sitting in a center island that looked interesting, another space opera series. Didn’t see it until I was leaving so I’ll need to go back and take a closer look at it. All these good books, especially science fiction, are doing wonders!

    I now have a cannon: https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/building-garden/garden-ornaments/decorative-cast-iron-cannon-from-england/id-f_21567422/ 😀

    My grandfather used to shoot tennis balls out of it using a fire cracker 😛

    I really miss ads on TV for book releases. I found them quite handy! Now they’re playing ads for pop music albums instead 🙁

    Ooh, Power Girl is getting a solo comic book series in September. Could be fun!

    in reply to: Hardware Relics #233

    Sorry! Missed this!

    Don’t have any relics over here but my mom has an ancient typewriter she picked up somewhere just cause she thought it was cool. It currently lives in her shed 😛

    Those are the sources for my wall art! Big fan of having nebula pictures on the wall 😀

    Will do! I’m also thinking it may be nice to adjust the transparency of the blocks so that the background can be seen behind them. It’ll make more sense with a sample! I’m terrible at descriptions 😛

    in reply to: All Things Site and Organizational #231

    Looks good!

    Too bad about the smilies. 🙁

    in reply to: All Things Site and Organizational #215

    Sure, sounds good to me. Was different on Teams where we couldn’t reorganize topics later but we’ve got a move function here. I was mostly just copying the Teams structure 🙂

    An idea for the future if we get enough posts is utilizing categories and subforums but we’ll get there!

    in reply to: No Post Previews #214

    Done some looking and it looks like bbPress has that feature after all, just not from the editor in the forum view. The preview feature is in the admin center under the topics area, along with a more advanced editor. I didn’t see a plugin or setting to bring these features to the main area here, though, but there may be a tweak mentioned in the docs. Will look!

    If we want to go with a spacey background at some point, there are a lot of good options to choose from 🙂

    in reply to: WordPress Login Lockout #205

    Yep, that’s the Apache server. 🙂

    Sorry! A few weeks ago, we were discussing how boring Jack was in Teams 😛

    And got it up along with a few threads!

    May want to rearrange the forums at some point. They’re getting a bit gangly 😛

    in reply to: MS Teams Biz #201

    It was worth a try! Any more luck with the extraction script?

    in reply to: WordPress Login Lockout #194

    Access has been reset so from the email! 🙂

    Yeah, the incident ID is some sort of hex code but it doesn’t say where it’s coming from (WordPress, Apache, or something else). Would be nice if it did!

    Yep, can’t see it without logging in so the private permission seems to be working. Using Chrome on mobile right now but I’ll test it on the computer too, see if that helps narrow it down.

    It seems linked to my IP address as the message comes up after I click the login button after closing out the private browsing session and opening a new one. It could even be related to something like Fail2Ban. Had to whitelist my IP address in the past on servers as it kept blocking me inexplicably but it could be CleanTalk.

    Sorry! Diagnosing our issues is taking away from getting the social threads together. We remember our recent discussion about Jack! 😛

    I’ll get a general public one together for general chatting soon. Should we have a thread for forum structure? Much easier to move things around here than on Teams, which is nice 🙂

    in reply to: WordPress Login Lockout #190

    That’s weird. What’s the recent IP access log for my account?

    in reply to: MS Teams Biz #185

    Looking at the settings, it’s rather confusing. There is a setting for SMS authentication but it doesn’t let me do it on a per-member basis and the documentation kind of contradicts itself. It says that it’ll be enabled for the entire group but also mentions in the same article that everyone needs to be licensed even if it’s not used by them. However, I’m not seeing anything that lets a member turn it off. I had enabled it briefly and then turned the setting off and that set off warning alarms in the Azure Portal so I hope I didn’t break anything by doing that :/

    I’ve created a temporary access pass, though: hQE5Mz7t
    One-time use, set to expire in 14 days

    It looks like I can create as many of them as I want to so that I can keep your account active. I can also set it to expire in, say, 30 days.
    It says to go here to register credentials: https://aka.ms/mysecurityinfo

    Still learning my way around this stuff!

    in reply to: MS Teams Biz #178

    It may require me to add the phone number but we’ll find out!

    Yep, I can do a temporary authentication. That setting is conveniently located in the same place (finally found the area the other day)! Give me a bit! Want to do some reading tomorrow and I’m just getting going on my other things for today. 🙂

    I’ve had issues with the QR codes not working in the past but it should provide a code you can enter manually into the authenticator as well in lieu of the QR code. I’ve had much better success with the manual entries

    in reply to: Welcome! #174

    Sounds good 🙂

    Can access Teams today without issue but we’ll see if it lasts 😛

    Don’t really have anything to add to that thread at the moment (other than still recovering from all the grief lately) but we can certainly use this forum for things like that!

    in reply to: Styles #171

    Something that would be nice would be to be able to add elements to the forums like we can the blog pages through the WYSIWYG editor. Not sure why we can’t right now. It may be a bbPress limitation. Probably not a necessity, would just be nice to have 🙂

    Oh, I turned on the private messaging feature in BuddyPress. Perhaps it’ll be useful! 🙂

    in reply to: Disqus Not Showing on Home page #170

    Sorry, was referring to the issue we had with the theme not being fully compatible and we had to tweak it to make bbPress work.

    Sounds good. 🙂

    Yep! The support was able to help us with other things even though the initial issues weren’t resolved. 🙂

    If it helps, uBlock Origin is showing that the Disqus connection is being loaded and not blocked over here.

    in reply to: MS Teams Biz #168

    Huh, was able to log in to Teams this morning after being locked out all weekend. Weird!

    I found the setting in the Azure portal to add a phone number for authentication instead of an authenticator app. They won’t let us use email for authentication methods, just password reset. Are you able to access that setting? It’s under Users -> Your entry -> Authentication methods on the sidebar

    I can split this off into another thread if we want to use this one for just content retrieval 🙂

    in reply to: Disqus Not Showing on Home page #159

    Have you tried switching to a different theme? It’s possible it’s a similar issue as we were having with bbPress. WordPress should be pretty malleable. May be handy to keep a copy of the base theme without changes just for testing purposes.

    Speaking of which, we lost the link we used to fix bbPress when Teams was flushed to the mutant alligators. Are you able to dig it back up? I’m thinking it may be helpful to make notes of our changes 🙂

    On an encouraging note, some of the Teams data at least is still there. I had turned off the tablet before I went out of town and before your last post. I turned it back on after we got locked out and received a notification on the tablet with your last post. Couldn’t access it, of course, but it was there. Hopefully that means we’ll be able to access it again in the future

    It looks like it’s a proper post but I’m not entirely sure. Is the site registered with Disqus? This page implies that set up may need a few extra steps.
