Embedded Radio3 linkblog not updating on Drummer blog #171

Open allthisness opened 1 year ago

allthisness commented 1 year ago

I have a Radio3 linkblog here: http://radio3.io/users/allthisness/

I have also embedded it in a tab on my Drummer blog here: http://oldschool.scripting.com/allthisness/?tab=links

However the linkblog in the tab doesn’t update.

Any ideas? Thank you.

@allthisness --

if you want to figure out what's going wrong, it mostly happens in Radio3.

the question is are there any errors when you cause the linkblog to rebuild.

simply editing one of the times should cause that to happen.

look for errors in the javascript console, and report any of those here.

radio3 is quirky, i have problems with it too. i don't have the time to do the overhaul that it needs (it was written a long time ago).

Thank you. JavaScript is a bit beyond me I’m afraid as I’m woefully untechnical but I might try and take a look when I have a bit more time.

To see the JavaScript console, in Chrome..

  1. Pull down the View menu.
  2. Click on Developer sub-menu.
  3. Choose JavaScript console.

Error messages generally appear in red. But sometimes my software will say what's going wrong in messages that aren't errors, so are in black.

Thank you. Forgive the poor screen shot but I don’t have a computer and had to ask a friend to look for me. Not sure if this is helpful… 0DD09EF2-8827-4B56-880E-75131C27384B

Did you make a change to something to cause the data to rebuild?

the errors you’re seeing look like some plug-in is interfering with radio3 communications with the server.

Not that I’m aware of.

Some extra context - the occasion just now when I sent the screenshot is the first time the site has been viewed in Chrome and on a desktop. Up until then I have been using Safari on iOS exclusively to use Drummer and Radio3 as I don’t have a laptop or desktop computer.

Please go back to the instructions I gave you above. We need to see what happens when you try to rebuild your linkblog. Please don't make me repeat instructions here. I am so overloaded with helping people.

It's a really good idea -- if you want help, to wait a bit and do some exploring and reading of other messages, before popping up for help. There's no one here getting paid to help you.

And then one message written with care to say what exactly you did, step by step, and why you thought that would work.
